Narrative The Township’s consultant, Elizabeth Treadway of Wood (formerly Amec Foster Wheeler) will provide a presentation on the results of the stormwater fee feasibility study. The study was conducted to evaluate our current and future stormwater services and to evaluate the feasibility of a user fee to fund these services. Staff and the consultants (Wood teamed with Gannett Fleming) have held two public information sessions on the study to date. An ad hoc committee was established in September 2017 consisting of representatives of several key stakeholders in the Township. The last meeting of the committee convened in April 2018. Should the Board decide to proceed further, the next step will be to engage a firm to review rate policy options in greater detail, prepare a final policy structure on rates, and assist with implementation of a user fee.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION That the Board receive the report.

4. DISCUSSION OF CENTRE REGION SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES 20 minutes

Narrative At the April 23rd meeting of the COG General Forum, Centre Regional Planning Agency Sustainability Planner Colleen Barrett presented several discussion items relative to regional sustainability initiatives. Ms. Barrett has been completing stakeholder interviews with several municipal staff members and officials, and is in the process of categorizing the comments into topics for a regional climate action strategy. The following questions were directed to member municipalities for further consideration:

1. How do you see the Centre Region focusing its sustainability efforts? (i.e. a plan to reducegreenhouse gas emissions, setting goals with benchmarks for NetZero emissions, or beginningwith climate actions that also provide significant, environmental, social, and economic benefits tobuild community buy-in)?

2. Given conversations with stakeholders and ongoing local efforts, we anticipate procurementpolicies and government operations will remain at the municipal level (e.g. conversion of municipalfleet vehicles to electric or compressed natural gas vehicles). Does this understanding match yourmunicipality’s expectations?

3. Do you have examples on what community or region the Centre Region should model? Who dowe want to look like? (e.g. Pittsburgh? Madison? Ithaca?)

4. Given that this effort is uncharted territory for the Centre Region, what, or whom did we miss inthis part of the process? What did you expect to hear and did not see covered?

Recommended motion: That the Board of Supervisors direct the Township Manager to prepare a memorandum summarizing the discussion and forward it to the COG Executive Director.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION That the Board discuss the questions provided in the narrative and direct the Manager to forward the comments to the COG Executive Director.

FERGUSON TOWNSHIP BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Special Meeting

Thursday, May 3, 2018 6:00 PM

I. ATTENDANCE

The Board of Supervisors held a special meeting on Thursday, May 3, 2018, at the Ferguson Township Municipal Building. In attendance were:

Board: Peter Buckland Steve Miller Laura Dininni Sara Carlson Tony Ricciardi

Staff: Dave Pribulka, Township Manager Dave Modricker, Public Works Director Eric Endresen, Director of Finance Steve MacDonald, Road Superintendent Bruce Houck, Township Mechanic

Others in attendance included: Wes Glebe; Galen Dreibelbis; Tom Songer II; Kurt Homan; and John D. Hajduk

II. CALL TO ORDER

Mr. Buckland called the Thursday, May 3, 2018, special meeting to order at 6:00 p.m.

III. CITIZENS INPUT – none noted.

IV. DISCUSSION OF NEW PUBLIC WORKS MAINTENANCE FACILITY

Mr. Pribulka provided an introduction on the project including staff and Board priorities; the engagement of Greenfield Architects; and the development of the Basis of Design. Mr. Modricker further detailed the process that has taken place to date. Mr. Modricker reviewed the budget, which initially stood at approximately $3 million total, and further reviewed the schematics and estimated budget prepared by the architects. Mr. Modricker advised the Board that the preliminary estimate is approximately $7.1 million. Mr. Modricker continued to review “value engineering” estimates and schematics prepared by the architect with the goal of reducing costs while still meeting the Basis of Design and staff needs. Approximately sixty percent (60%) of the design has been completed to date. Mr. Endresen reviewed cost options and debt service. Mr. Buckland opened the floor to citizen’s comments. Mr. Dreibelbis asked about solar installations. Specifically, Mr. Dreibelbis was concerned that solar panels are expensive and do not yield a return on investment. Designing the facility, he added, to face a southerly orientation for optimal solar capture is not a prudent way to approach building design. He further added that the Township could not take advantage of tax credits given that it is a tax-exempt entity. Mr. Modricker responded that the Township could consider a Power Purchasing Agreement with a private party that would allow that party to receive tax credits and pass the savings along to the Township. Mr. Hajduk introduced himself as the Director of the Penn State Facilities Engineering Institute. Mr. Hajduk expressed preliminary concern over the cost estimates, stating that they are inconsistent with the estimates he is seeing in the market. Mr. Hajduk continued to state that the Township should have no problem constructing a facility within the budget originally proposed and achieve its intent. He offered to review the estimate in further detail at no cost to the Township. Mr. Glebe inquired about the savings the Township would realize without the wash bay.

Ferguson Township Board of Supervisors Thursday, May 3, 2018 Page 2

Mr. Songer asked about the cost of the fueling facility. Mr. Songer suggested the Township explore options such as fleet fueling contracts with private facilities or an agreement with CATA or State College Borough. Mr. Songer added that the Township should look at prototype designs used by PennDOT to see if that would fit its needs. Mr. Buckland opened discussion up to the Board. Mr. Miller opined that he would prefer not to sacrifice the Township’s needs in the interest of saving money. He expressed concerns that, in doing so, the Township will have to build another building to fill the gap in the short term. Mr. Ricciardi agreed, and inquired about the difference between the estimated cost and the budget. Mr. Pribulka responded that the difference may be in labor costs, costs of steel and material, LEED design initiatives, and other areas, but it is difficult to pin it down to one or two cost drivers. Ms. Carlson agreed with Mr. Miller, and further expressed concern about giving up amenities that the Township already has, such as eliminating the fueling facility and not replacing the existing one, in the interest of cutting costs. Ms. Dininni reviewed the questions in the agenda. She advised that LEED Gold is not a strict requirement of hers, and that deviation from that in the interest of cost savings is possible. The Board reached consensus around this point. Ms. Dininni continued to add that changes in her priorities given cost include additional fitness equipment and recreation trails. Stormwater management remains a high priority, as well as using concrete instead of asphalt. Ms. Dininni requested that staff review alternate fueling options including privatization and contracting with State College Borough. Ms. Dininni inquired about whether the new facility could accommodate additional staff in the event that costs could be offset by assuming responsibility for maintenance and operations of Township parks. Mr. Buckland advised that the Basis of Design has not changed. LEED Gold is a way to drive aspiration and not necessarily an immoveable priority. Rather, Mr. Buckland is interested in achieving a high-efficiency building. Mr. Buckland made a motion to direct staff to engage Mr. Hajduk and the Penn State Facilities Engineering Institute to review cost estimates of the facility. Ms. Dininni seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously. Mr. Buckland reviewed his idea about exploring a regional Power Purchasing Agreement that may achieve an economy of scale and reduced pricing that may further reduce our operational costs associated with the new facility. Mr. Miller suggested that staff have a discussion with State College Borough regarding the utilization of their fueling facility.

V. ADJOURNMENT

Mr. Buckland called for adjournment. With no further business to come before the Board of Supervisors, Mr. Ricciardi made a motion to adjourn the meeting. The meeting adjourned at 7:42 p.m.

TOWNSHIP OF FERGUSONStormwater User Fee Feasibility Study

Summary of Study Findings

A. Background:

This study was initiated to answer a series of questions regarding the stormwater services provided bythe Township and to evaluate the potential for user fee funding as the primary financial resource forthese services. The questions focused on the analysis and the strategy for addressing drainage systemand water quality program needs.

The questions are:

1. What is the Township’s current stormwater management program?2. What are the stormwater related problems, issues, needs, and opportunities currently faced

by the Ferguson Township? What is the compelling case to change current funding methods?3. What stormwater program priorities should guide Ferguson Township in the next three to five

years? What is the long-range goal for these services?4. What is the optimal organizational structure to deliver services to the community? Are there

staffing needs that should be considered?5. What specific Township program elements require additional funding or a change in funding

strategy?6. What is (are) the best way(s) to pay for stormwater management? Are there multiple funding

strategies that can be used to accomplish the goals of the program?7. Is it feasible to establish a user-fee based funding strategy? What are the steps to

implementation?

B. Program Recommendations:

In answering questions 1 through 5, the analysis of current services indicates a need to focus moreresources for maintenance and operation of the drainage system while ensuring compliance with waterquality mandates from the Pennsylvania Department of the Environment (PADEP). Working with theStormwater Advisory Committee and staff, with feedback from the Board of Supervisors, priorities wereidentified and ranked.

The following priorities for stormwater services were identified and presented to the Board ofSupervisors as important activities and efforts to achieve an effective and efficient program.

Assessment of infrastructure systems including expanded documentation on facilities built priorto 2003, as well as current and complete data on infrastructure condition, age, material,location, ownership, and other key elements. This data drives future capital investment as wellas maintenance practices.

Investment in pipe rehabilitation, lining corrugated metal pipe in neighborhoods as well asreplacement when critical condition indicating potential or eminent failure is identified.

On-going compliance with mandated water quality permit requirements including engineeringdesign and construction of MS4 Permit Pollution Reduction Plan projects.

Summary of Study Recommendations

2 | P a g e M a y 2 0 1 8

Operation and maintenance enhancements for all components of the drainage infrastructure, toaddress both quantity and quality management. Short term and long term objectives will be metwith support by contractors, additional staff, and equipment purchases. These resources willaddress immediate support in infrastructure assessment and long-term support for systemmaintenance and operations.

Increased level of service for maintenance of ditches and cross-pipe system components outsidethe urban area.

Inspection of infrastructure on a routine basis for inlets, pipes, open channels, and stormwatermanagement facilities.

Continued partnership with the Transportation Improvement Program for drainage systemcomponents within the Township roadway network.

C. Funding Methodologies:

Analysis of funding methodologies for continued and expanded stormwater operations, maintenance,and capital programs considered:

The status quo, a combination of Township general funds and capital resources from theTransportation Improvement Fund (TIF) for stormwater systems within the roadway inconjunction with roadway projects. Utilization of grant funds when opportunities exist.

Implementation of a user fee as the primary funding methodology with grant funds whenopportunities exist.

Implementation of a user fee, utilization of grant funds when opportunities exist, andpartnership with capital funding from the TIF for those stormwater improvements within aroadway project.

The study included evaluation of key operational impacts for user fees for stormwater. An evaluation ofthe Township geographic information system (GIS) data was undertaken to determine if current data cansupport a fee methodology. Gaps in GIS data were identified and the Township has continued to captureimpervious area features to expand the tools. Generally speaking, the Township’s existing planimetriclayers exhibit consistent and satisfactory spatial accuracy. It is understood that planimetric features havebeen captured over different time spans, and not created/maintained for the purposes of calculating userfees per parcel. As such, there are some data capture needs that should be addressed prior to using thelayers for development of a master account file for impervious area calculation. This generally involvescapture of new real-world features (notably driveways and parking lots) which the Township hasundertaken.

D. Feasibility Determination:

Feasibility of a user fee implementation is judged by:

1. A need for additional resources; a compelling reason to create additional funding to address realand documented needs.

2. Benefits of user-fees over existing sources; policies and goals that can be achieved.3. Operational impacts for user fee calculation; capacity of the Township to administer a new

revenue methodology.


3 | P a g e M a y 2 0 1 8

4. Ability to address unique conditions such as private investment in the drainage system,involvement of all property owners, recognition of varying levels of service, and sound financialpolicy.

5. Rates that reflect a sense of fairness and/or equity in impacts.

Compelling Reasons for Action: The need for additional resources to ensure long-term effectivemanagement of the existing and expanding drainage infrastructure was identified during the evaluationof current services. For example, with approximately 50% of the pipe system composed of corrugatedmetal pipe (CMP), the Township staff recognizes that it is reaching end-of-life service based on installationdates. There is a capital investment need outside of the roadway system that requires funding to upgradeor rehabilitate CMP. Industry best practice recognizes that preventative action, before pipe failure, is theleast costly approach. In addition, a condition assessment of all infrastructure provides the Township withthe ability to prioritize long-term capital investment as well as on-going maintenance needs for all systemcomponents (channels, basins, inlets, green infrastructure).

Benefits of User Fees: A comparison of user fees to income/real property/transfer taxes was documented.The primary benefits of user-fee funding are dedication of revenues with predictability for level of fundingfrom year to year; ability to include all property owners in the solution for long-term management of theinfrastructure for stormwater quality and quantity controls; and the ability to incentivize property ownersto maintain private system while addressing partnerships through cost sharing or interagency agreements(with Pennsylvania State University (PSU) for example). One benefit often realized is increased educationand awareness of how individuals and companies manage stormwater on their property. Though notinstituted for this purpose, education on stormwater management has been valuable in engaging propertyowners.

Operational Impacts: The Township has the ability to manage the business practices for user-feeadministration including updates for a master billing account file and billing procedures. There will be on-going management oversight of policies and partnerships. Impacts can be fully assessed duringimplementation once final policies are established. Care must be given to ensure that administration doesnot cause disproportional burdens resulting in overhead costs that are not in line with other Townshipoperations.

Ability to Address Unique Conditions: The Township understands there are unique relationships andoperational conditions that can be addressed, either through rate policies or management policies. It isimportant that policies do not create an administrative burden that nullifies the benefit. These includepolicies such as:

1. “Revenue neutrality”: When a user fee is established, the Board of Supervisors can adjust generalfund revenues such as a reduction in earned income tax that would result in relative neutralimpact of a new fee (not property by property but by total revenue generated for current levelsof service). Total revenue would not change for the needs of the current stormwater program ifactions are taken to adjust general fund revenues by the costs transferred to the user fee.Additional needs would be addressed through the user fees.

2. Credits for Private Investments: The Board of Supervisors can establish a credit policy that wouldoffer a reduction in “amount due” for stormwater to recognize private investment in stormwatermanagement as well as a credit for properties also regulated for water quality controls (such asPSU properties under their own PADEP permit). This approach typically offers an additionalbenefit to the community by requiring maintenance agreements, memorandums of


4 | P a g e M a y 2 0 1 8

understanding, and periodic credit renewal/site inspection to ensure that facilities are performingas required.

3. Inter-Program Connections: Often stormwater services are linked to other programs or objectivesthat provide an opportunity to maximize the impacts of both. Policies should be tested to ensurethat no conflicts are created and multiple goals can be achieved when possible. (For example,partnership with TIF in roadway improvements or stormwater credit program encouraginggroundwater recharge through higher credits for areas where recharge is or can be supported.)

4. Level of Service Variability: Policy in rates and credits can take into consideration a varying levelof service.

Rate Fairness and/or Equity: Several rate strategies were evaluated, using a program of services basedon priorities with a cost model projected over a five year planning period. The investment level wasbased on meeting program goals and priorities as described above. The rate strategies achieve varyingoutcomes.

1. Fixed billing unit using single family residential impervious area as basis.2. Tiered Single Family Residential using three tiers of single family residential categories that

differentiate by impervious area ranges (i.e., 300-2000 sq. ft.; 2001-3000 sq. ft. and over3000 sq. ft.). All other properties are billed on the relative basis to the median single familyhome impervious area as the billing unit.

3. Urban/Rural Level of Service rates establishing a base rate that all property owners pay andvarying the rate for other services that are identified by level of service.

Evaluation of these options demonstrates that the Township has the ability to use rate structures toachieve policies that represent the values and interests of the community. Rates can address thevariability of impervious area within a land use class (such as residential) as well as the variability inlevels of service.

A fourth approach can be included in the evaluation once the Township completes its GIS data onimpervious area. The fourth approach uses a fixed square footage of impervious area (e.g., 500 sq. ft. or1000 sq. ft.) as the billing unit, applied equally to all properties without regard to land use. Thisapproach can be combined with a level of service approach addressing urban/rural stormwatermanagement needs.

Estimated rates for single family residential properties with one billing unit range from $110 to $120 ayear for the first year of the five year plan analyzed. Non-single-family-residential (NSFR) billing unitsrange from one (1) for 183 parcels to 531 billing units for one large parcel owned by the UniversityCollege of Agriculture in the southwest corner of the Township.

The Summary of Rates and Billing Units Analysis report dated May 2018 provides specific details.

E. Current Revenue Sources and Potential Impacts of User Fee Adoption:

The study analysis included an evaluation of current revenue sources and an estimation of theirproportionate share of funding current stormwater services within the Public Works Department. Thethree primary revenue sources within the General Fund for FY18 and the percent of revenuecontribution is:


5 | P a g e M a y 2 0 1 8

Approximate Revenue Relationship between Three Primary Sources for GF in FY18:

Real Property Tax (RPT) - $1,425,425 14.75%Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT) - $1,400,000 14.50%Earned Income Tax (EIT) - $6,837,000 70.75%

These percentages were applied to the cost of service for the current year budget and the projectedprogram. Assuming the three primary sources are used for stormwater purposes based on thepercentages, the amount of revenue support from each primary source is reflected in the followingtable.

Table 1 - GF Revenue for Stormwater Program

YearAnnual SW Operating

Costs RPT (14.75%)RETT

(14.5%) EIT (70.75%)2018 $ 1,681,148 $ 247,969 $ 243,766 $ 1,189,412Yr 1 $ 1,981,180 $ 292,224 $ 287,271 $ 1,401,685Yr 2 $ 2,011,075 $ 296,634 $ 291,606 $ 1,422,836Yr 3 $ 2,170,627 $ 320,167 $ 314,741 $ 1,535,719Yr 4 $ 2,176,717 $ 321,066 $ 315,624 $ 1,540,027Yr 5 $ 1,958,468 $ 288,874 $ 283,978 $ 1,385,616

If these stormwater costs are moved from the General Fund to a Stormwater Fund supported by userfees, the General Fund revenue demand from each source could be reduced by 17.4%($1,681,148/$9,662,425 = 17.4%). This brief analysis provides a summary for consideration inestablishing a revenue neutral approach if a user fee is adopted. A more detailed analysis by theFinance staff is warranted prior to establishing a policy on revenues.

Comparison to Real Property Tax Rate: Public stormwater services for both water quantity and waterquality management are directly related to development of land. The Stormwater Advisory Committee(SAC) requested an analysis of the impact on real property taxes if used to fully fund the overallprogram, creating a rational relationship of real property conditions to the cost of operation of thepublic drainage system. Current total General Fund (GF) Revenue from Real Property Tax (RPT) is$1,425,425 based on the FY18 budget. Non-stormwater services budgeted in the GF in FY18 is$1,177,456 supported by RPT (total revenue less 14.75% for stormwater as shown in above table).Current millage rate is 2.422 per $1000 assessed value.

Table 2 that follows documents the revenue demand from real property taxes for both the stormwaterprogram and existing “other” services within the General Fund. It provides an estimate of the generationof One Mil, based on FY18 rates and budgeted revenues. Using real property tax as the primary fundingmethod for stormwater services would require a doubling of the current millage rate.

The analysis demonstrates that if the real property tax is the primary revenue source for stormwaterservices, creating the same rational nexus between the need for the service and the revenue source, itwould require a significant increase in the millage rate.

F. Issues for Further Consideration:

The second phase of analysis includes a review of rate policy options in greater detail with final policystructure on rates and implementation decisions on adoption of user fees. There are several issuesidentified by the Stormwater Advisory Committee, staff and the public that are important to addresswith stakeholders and the community. When addressed, they refine the rates and operating policies forstormwater management.

1. Urban versus Rural/Agricultural Levels of Service: There are recognized and measurabledifferences in the level of service for stormwater management provided by the Township withinvarious regions in Ferguson. Options are available to recognize those differences through therate structure and service policies. Distribution of costs for public services can address thevariability in services. Rates for fees can be established to assign charges appropriately. It isimportant to work through these policies with stakeholder input and more detailed analysis ofcosts. A rate structure can accommodate different factors such as intensity of development,taking into account lot size and measured impervious area.

2. Pennsylvania State University (PSU) - Partnership: The Township and PSU have mandates forimprovement of water quality through permits from the Commonwealth. In addition, PSU ownsvarious parcels within the Township for which it takes operational responsibility for stormwatermanagement. There are interconnections with stormwater runoff moving into and fromproperties within each entity’s boundary. Service levels and shared responsibility were beyondthe scope of this study; however, they require consideration moving forward. Options availableto the Township in user-fee policy can address fairness and equity in rate development andapplication. In addition, a more defined agreement may be of value through a Memorandum of


7 | P a g e M a y 2 0 1 8

Understanding to set forth terms and service agreements that will impact a user-fee structure.The basis of the user fee rate estimations do not take property by property flow rates/volumeinto consideration. The rational nexus test recognizes service received vary property to propertybased on site conditions and use of the public system. Management of runoff is not the onlyservice delivered to the public in the management of stormwater. Water quality improvements,environmental protection, protection of other infrastructure and real property from excessiveflows, safe roadway and transportation movement are just some of the services providedthrough an effective stormwater program. Discussions with the University are appropriate in asecond phase of analysis to address services and charges.

3. Revenue Neutrality: The concept of revenue neutrality for implementation of a new revenuesource was discussed in the Advisory Committee as well as with staff and Township leaders.Revenue neutrality, the concept that a shift of costs from the GF to a stormwater fund shouldcreate no greater burden on the community for existing services. Revenue neutrality can beachieved at the macro level but not on a parcel by parcel basis. The sources of revenue (i.e.,earned income and real estate transfer taxes) need further analysis to determine howreductions will affect current residents and businesses in the Township. At the macro level,adjustments in revenue rates for each source can be achieved to create parity. New orexpanded services for stormwater management should not be taken into consideration in such arevenue analysis since all growth in services would be recovered through the user fees.

4. Credits for Private Investment in Stormwater Infrastructure: Many communities incorporatecredits for private investment in stormwater systems that are used to reduce the fee charges forspecific properties. Credits are often used to encourage certain types of engineered bestpractices to reduce runoff volume and/or velocity as well as improve water quality. TheAdvisory Committee provided positive feedback on the use of credits and recognized the needto include the option in the next phase of study, if the Board chooses to move forward.Encouraging private investment through cost-sharing was also discussed; incentives forretrofitting properties currently without water quality best practices, for example, are onepotential use of cost-share incentives.

G. General Conclusions:

It is feasible to implement a user fee to address compelling program/service needs to manage andmaintain the infrastructure, based on operational capability, and based on the flexibility in ratedevelopment that provides the Township with options to achieve various policy goals.

Implementation Steps:The feasibility assessment is the foundation for finalization of policies, program investments, operationalplanning and fee adoption. The following chart provides an overview of the process for implementationof a user fee and the area within the BLACK lines is the work completed to date in the Feasibility Study.In the implementation phase, the work moves from options identification and cost capture to ratefinalization, addressing policies, levels of service, preferred rate structure and financial modeling.

The decision to adopt a fee by the Board of Supervisors occurs after full consideration of all policies,levels of service, and final rate analysis.

Hi Dave,I’m making a request for a board request for regular agenda item to be added to this coming consentagenda.

He/she would develop aninventory of vacant commercial and industrial sites and would make that information available tointerested parties. He/she would identify and pursue programs and grants to support economicdevelopment in Ferguson and would have responsibility for managing the CommunityDevelopment Block Grant Program. (Board to initiate, staff to implement)

8) Promotion of Municipal Identitya. Develop our Sense of Place by developing a vibrant Town Center, preserving our agriculturalheritage, and promoting the features that make the Township unique.

Operating Local Match Shares The Authority’s local share request for FY 2017/18, in the amount of $606,902, represents a 4.96% increase over the amount provided last year. (This is not exactly 5% because FY 2017/18 included the final $220 of “cushion.”) The requested local operating match is driven by the state funding received by CATA. Legislation requires that CATA’s local funding partners provide a 15% local match on the operating funding provided by PennDOT, but there is a ceiling provision in the regulations stating that the maximum increase that can be required of a transit system in any single year is 5%. Having been historically under-funded, CATA has never come close to the 15% level and will remain in the category of those transit agencies qualifying for the 5% per year cap for the foreseeable future. Should adequate funding to cover the required local operating match not be obtained, CATA would be forced to return the portion of PennDOT funding that is not matched. Once total local match has been determined, for many years the Authority allocated amounts to each funding partner using the Miller formula, the details and history of which can be found in prior budget documents. During FY 2015/16 and FY 2016/17, the Miller formula was reassessed by the funding partners, and the group agreed upon a new CATA formula. The CATA formula includes population numbers already used in accepted COG formulas, service miles, and number of stops. These three factors are weighted to soften large shifts based on service changes alone. The amount for contracted municipalities is taken off the top based on a cost per mile that will advance with the overall percentage change for local match, which mirrors how local match share is treated for Penn State University. The remainder is then split amongst the member municipalities using the new CATA formula.

Capital Local Match Shares

In FY 2013/14, CATA embarked on a five-year process of gradually increasing capital local match in order to match funds from a $12.3 million federal State of Good Repair grant, and an additional $28.7 million in state funds for our facility expansion project. The final of those five years was FY 2017/18. At the February 27, 2017, COG General Forum meeting, approval was received for setting capital local match at $100,000 per year for FY 2018/19, FY 2019/20, and FY 2020/21. Accordingly, CATA is requesting capital local match in the amount of $100,000 for FY 2018/19. For quite some time, CATA has supported the COG Finance Committee request that a capital reserve be maintained to avoid large annual swings in the requests for capital matching funds, which can vary widely depending on the magnitude of planned procurements. Any excess capital local match is committed to the capital reserve and used to support CATA’s future capital needs, and maintaining an ending balance in the capital reserve account is important for leveling the annual request that CATA makes for capital local match. The allocation of capital local match for capital projects is shown in the following table. Individual shares are based on the percentages of operating assistance calculated for each municipality and Penn State using the CATA formula. CAPITAL LOCAL

Chairman Nigel Wilson will convene the meeting.

2. CITIZEN COMMENTS

Members of the public are invited to comment on any items not already on the agenda(five minutes per person time limit, please). Comments relating to specific items on theagenda should be deferred until that point in the meeting.

3. APPROVAL OF MINUTES

A copy of the minutes from the March 7, 2018 Human Resources Committee meeting isenclosed for approval.

5. CONTRACT AWARD FOR COG PERSONNEL HANDBOOK

This agenda item asks the HR Committee to award a bid to review and update the COGPersonnel Policy Handbook. An up to date handbook is vital in capturing the core valuesand expectations of the Centre Region COG. Updated policies will provide employees aplace to reference benefit information, as well as learn the rules and expectations of theworkplace. Updated policies will also provide management staff with a point of referencefor enforcing rules and handling personnel issues in a clear and consistent manner.Furthermore, some of the outdated policies in the current COG handbook no longerdocument what COG’s practices are. An overhaul will give the Agency Directors theopportunity to discuss and document current practices and develop a more consistentformat across agencies. The 2018 COG Budget, designated $12,000 for this project.

Human Resources Committee AgendaMay 9, 2018Page 2 of 7

A Request for Proposals was advertised and four (4) bids were received by the April 20,2018, 3:00 PM deadline. All bids were initially deemed to be complete and the results wereas follows:

*2018 funding will be carried over into 2019 to complete the training sessions.

Out of the four (4) bids received, phone interviews were held with two (2) of theconsultants. COG staff recommend that the HR Committee award the contract to Ms.Nancy Hess of N.J. Hess Associates, Hummelstown, PA, in the amount of $9,750 plusmileage.

The proposal Ms. Hess provided details extensive experience working with localgovernments, COG’s in particular, and in the creation of numerous Personnel Policies andPolicy Handbooks. The example table of contents she provided, plus templates shouldprove to be very helpful in updating as well as streamlining some processes across COGagencies. Ms. Hess offers a very enticing training program which went above simplyhighlighting the changes in the Personnel Policy Handbook for supervisory staff. Samplesprovided in her proposal depict interactive training sessions that incorporate actual workscenarios. Last, but not least, Ms. Hess comes highly recommended by her references.

If the committee agrees with this recommendation they should consider the followingmotion:

$11,250 plus

The 2018 COG Budget appropriated funding for a new employment position of CodesServices Manager for the Centre Region Code Administration Agency (CRCA). Theposition will be funded through the CRCA Budget that is entirely financed throughbuilding, fire and rental housing permit fees. No municipal tax dollars are involved. Themain duties of this position will be to focus on the enhancement of customer service andperform a wide variety of tasks including:

Managing community relations/public education/outreach efforts, andmaintaining positive, responsive and open relationships with the CRCA and themember municipalities, permit holders, developers, contractors, architects,engineers, property owners/managers and community groups.

The HR Committee should review the draft job description and note areas of concern. Ifthe Committee decides to approve the job description (as may be revised) then a potentialenacting motion is:


7. PRELIMINARY PERSONNEL CHANGES

The purpose of this agenda item is to ask the Human Resources Committee to providetheir comments, concerns, and questions on personnel changes that may be proposed inthe 2019 COG budget that will be prepared later this year. Also the Committee may askfor additional information on the proposals of interest to the members. This new data willbe provided to the Committee at a future meeting.

The recommendations from the Agency Directors are very preliminary and are meant tosolicit initial feedback. Based on previous experience, it is likely that some of theseproposals will not be advanced to the Budget because they are not within the financialguidelines established by the General Forum or because upon closer examination theremay be programmatic, legal, or other reasons for not proceeding with theirimplementation. The Committee is not being asked for its endorsement of theseproposals but rather for its thoughts based on the information available. It should also benoted that these proposals have not yet been fully vetted with the AdvisoryCommittees/Boards responsible for the oversight of the program. By way of example, therecommendations relating to the Centre Region Code Administration Agency will beshared with the Public Safety Committee during its June meeting. If the AdvisoryCommittee does not support a proposal then it will not be included in the 2019 ProgramPlan that will be presented to the General Forum in July.

The Agency Directors and support staff will be present to highlight particularly significantproposals and to respond to questions on any of their recommendations. Because of thenumber of proposal and the interest of time, the Agency Directors will not be presentingeach recommendation. Instead they will provide brief comments on the ones with the mostsignificant budgetary or programmatic impact. Questions on any of the recommendationsare welcomed.

The Agency Directors were asked to submit their requests in a standard format. Enclosedplease find justifications for the following personnel changes:

Code – Should the CRCA hire a Permit Program Technician? The CRCA has proposedto take over the Sewage Enforcement Officer function for three or more of theCentre Region Municipalities in 2019. This proposed position should have afamiliarity with the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) requirementsfor on-lot septic systems and sewage planning, and will be responsible to interfacewith both regional and local planning departments, and the Centre County.


Code – Should the CRCA hire a Commercial Plans Examiner/Inspector? Due to thecurrent level of construction in the Centre Region there are times that a permitapplicant may wait for inspections for more than a 24 hour period. The CRCAstaff propose this position to increase customer service, assist in providing timelyplan review and field inspections to allow for efficient construction scheduling andreduce costly construction delays. The position would also be beneficial to helpwith the expected increased work load that would come with the proposed SewageEnforcement Officer function in 2019.

Code – Should the CRCA hire a Commercial Plans Examiner/Inspector? Due to thecurrent level of construction in the Centre Region, on a regular basis there aretimes that a permit applicant may wait 30 working days (PA State maximum) forcommercial plan review. CRCA staff propose this position to assist in reducingplan review times to better serve the permit applicants.

Library – Should Schlow upgrade the Library Technician position to a Cataloging andDiscovery Services Librarian? The creation of a virtual branch in 2015 has also createdmany new tasks for staff, particularly the Library Technician position in the LibraryTechnical Services Department. The person presently holding the position has alleducational and experience credentials for the upgraded position and will stay inthe post. The job description will be changed to require a Masters of LibraryScience degree and appropriate experience.

Library –Should Schlow hire a full time Systems Technician in the IT department?Schlow IT staff have been struggling to keep up with maintenance, documentation,and administration of various systems and it has become evident that additional IThours are needed. This position was requested in 2016, but delayed due to lack offunding.

Library – Should the full time Patron Services Library Assistants be reclassified as full timeLibrary Technicians? The full time Patron Services Library Assistants are performingthe same job duties as full time Library Assistants in other departments of thelibrary, but at a lower wage. Schlow staff propose to upgrade the full-time para-professionals in Patron Services from Library Assistants to the more appropriateLibrary Technician pay level due to comparable responsibilities. This was proposedin 2017 and 2018 but delayed due to lack of funding.

Library – Should Schlow hire a part time Philanthropy Assistant? The large volume ofroutine clerical, data, and financial tasks associated with fundraising is restrictingthe amount of time available for cultivating donors and major gifts. Clerical andadministrative tasks should be assigned to an administrative support level position,allowing the Manager of Philanthropy to focus on critical donor relationships andstrategic activities.


Parks – Should CRPR increase the part time Staff Assistant to full time at the MillbrookMarsh Nature Center (MMNC)? The MMNC part time Staff Assistant position wasadded in 2017 due to the increasing popularity of the Millbrook Marsh NatureCenter, to reduce overtime hours for year-round staff, and the need for theSupervisor to focus on fundraising. The position has proven to be a successfuladdition in these areas, and in order to continue to provide exceptional customerservice and to manage the increasing volume of visitors, calls, scheduling,administrative tasks and projects, additional staff hours are needed.

Parks – Should CRPR increase the part time Staff Assistant to full time at the Active AdultCenter (AAC)? Since its relocation from downtown State College to the NittanyMall, program participation increased by 75% and meal service increased 31.7%.Although the part time Staff Assistant hours will prove to be helpful, it is evidentthat additional hours will be needed to complete work tasks, as well as, offercoverage for the AAC while the AAC Supervisor attends meetings, trainings,focuses on her work tasks without constant interruptions, and allows staff theability to take off for sick or vacation leave as needed.

Parks – Should CRPR convert four (4) seasonal maintenance positions to two (2) full timeand (1) year round part time maintenance positions? Parks Maintenance is no longer aseasonal operation; there is enough work to keep this division busy year roundbecause of the winter maintenance done indoors, as well as accomplishing projectsthat are incomplete because of the seasonal demands. There is currently work tasksthat staff struggle to keep up with, and there is only more work coming with thenew parks being considered by local municipalities. Parks staff propose thatconverting four (4) current seasonal positions into two (2) full-time positions andone (1) year-round 30 hr. part-time position would allow CRPR the opportunity tohire qualified staff that will be retained.

Refuse and Recycling – Should the Refuse and Recycling program increase the part timeRefuse and Recycling Administrator position to full time? Currently, a part timeassistant is employed to allow the Administrator to develop and implement aRegional Organics Recycling Program. With the scope of work needed to developand implement the Organics Program in 2020, it is becoming evident that theRefuse and Recycling Administrator’s position should be full time.

8. OTHER BUSINESS

A. Matter of Record – The Regional Fire Protection Agency has hired an Intern forthe summer of 2018. The intern positions for Emergency Management haveproven to be a cost-effective way to accomplish projects that staff often times do nothave time to complete without additional help.

AGENDA

1. CALL TO ORDER

Mr. Graham will convene the meeting.

2. CITIZEN COMMENTS

Members of the public are invited to comment on any items not already on the agenda (fiveminute per person time limit, please). Comments relating to specific items on the agendashould be deferred until that point in the meeting.

3. APPROVAL OF MINUTES

A copy of the minutes of the April 12, 2018 Finance Committee meeting is enclosed.

4. 2019 COG BUDGET GUIDELINE

During the past five years, the Finance Committee has set a guideline regarding changes in theoverall annual COG Budget. In establishing these guidelines, the Committee asked COG staffto keep the overall increase in municipal contributions to the COG (all Agencies) to a setpercentage. Below is a table identifying the percentage set by the General Forum and the actualincrease adopted in the annual budget proposed by the Finance Committee:

COG staff introduced the topic of the 2019 Budget Target Guidelines to the FinanceCommittee during its April 12, 2018 meeting. During that meeting the Committee agreed tothe following:

As in previous years, the percentage approved be applied to the combined total COGBudget and not to each of the 25 separate funds that make up the COG budget.

20182017201620152014

Finance Committee AgendaMay 10, 2018Page 2 of 4

That inflationary pressures will likely impact the relatively low level that the target guidelinehas been experiencing in recent years.

That members of the Finance Committee consult with the Boards/Council they representto discuss if there should be a target threshold for 2019 and what the threshold should beand report the Boards/Council comments to the Committee during its May 10, 2018Committee meeting. At this meeting the Committee will prepare a recommended target forthe General Forum to consider during its May 29, 2018 meeting.

It is staff’s belief, based on the trending of the CPI-U, that the COLA calculation will bebetween 2.1 and 2.3% for the 2019 COG budget. Additionally, the merit pool is set at 1.5% ofgross wages.

By way of background, the 2018 guideline approved by the General Forum during its June 26,2017 meeting read as follows:

Finance Committee members should come to the May meeting prepared to report on theirBoard/Council’s discussions relating to the 2019 COG Target Budget Guideline and thenprepare a recommendation for the General Forum to consider. It is staff’s recommendationthat the following sentence be added to the prior year’s motion:

5. PENSION AND RISK MGMT AGREEMENT WITH STATE COLLEGE BOROUGH

The Finance Committee should decide whether to extend the enclosed agreement between theCOG and State College Borough for risk management and pension services. Both COG andBorough staff agree that the agreement has worked well to date. COG staff is very pleased withthe risk management services it receives and the timely, professional, and thorough wayinsurance claims are handled by the Borough staff.

COG Administrative staff does not believe there will be a cost savings to bring pension and riskmanagement services in house. It is the COG staff’s recommendation that the agreementbetween State College Borough and the Centre Region COG be extended.

COG staff would like to recommend this agreement, after today’s Committee action, become astaff action rather than an annual action of the Finance Committee. Should there become atime that there is a substantial change to the agreement or policy level direction is needed bystaff or desired to be given by the Committee, then this agreement can be brought back to the


Committee at that point. The Committee will still be updated on an annual basis during thedetailed budget review process.

The Committee should discuss the current agreement and give their opinion as to how toproceed.

6. AUDIT REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS

Enclosed is the initial draft request for proposal (RFP) for audit services to be provided to theCentre Region Council of Governments, Centre Region Parks and Recreation Authority,Schlow Centre Region Library, and the Centre County Federation of Public Libraries. TheRFP will request that the contract be for a period of three (3) years with an additional mutuallyagreed upon two (2) year option.

The timing of this RFP is consistent with the direction given to COG staff during the setup ofits finance office in 2015. The current auditors, Maher Duessel, have been notified that COGwill be sending out RFPs this summer.

The Committee is to review the RFP and provide comments to the Finance Director to revisethe RFP for approval for distribution at its June meeting. It is the intention to send RFPs tothree firms directly (the firms that perform the municipal audits in the Centre Region) and toadvertise in either the Centre Daily Times or Centre County Gazette as well.

It is the intention of staff to provide a recommendation to the Committee at the Augustmeeting as to how to proceed with the selection of auditors for the years ended December 31,2018 through December 31, 2022 after the proposals have been received and reviewed.

It is anticipated that the General Forum will refer the 2019 Program Plan to the municipalitiesfor review and comment at its meeting on July 30, 2018. In order to give each municipality achance to meet and discuss the document, it is being recommended that the FinanceCommittee consider changing the date for its next meeting from August 9, 2018 to eitherAugust 16 or 17, 2018.

و

Joint Meeting AgendaMay 10, 2018Page 2

On April 23�s General Forum meeting, the Ad Hoc Action Sports Park Committee presented theirfindings again and entertained comments and questions. The COG General Forum then voted to acceptthe report and refer it to the COG Parks Capital Committee for discussion.

Some of the Ad Hoc Action Sports Park Committee members are in attendance to discuss with moredetail the process of their research, the scoring matrix, and the recommendations. The Committee isaware of the current timeline, but discussion regarding what next steps should be taken for this group willprovide direction for the committee as it looks to have the Action Sports Park added to the Phase 2 list ofamenities for the Whitehall Road Regional Park.

The report is extensive; enclosed is the full report (attachment #2) and the appendices (attachment #3).CRPR will provide printed copies for the COG Parks Capital Committee members as the CRPRAuthority members received their copies at their April 25 meeting.

5. PARKS AND RECREATION REGIONAL COMPREHENSIVE STUDY (Pam Salokangas)

A. Request For ProposalAs noted in previous reports, the Steering Committee discussed while drafting the Request for Proposalopportunities for alternate bidding options with the hope that there could be some local research optionsto reduce the project costs. It was suggested that the committee meet with members from the PSUDepartment of Recreation, Parks, and Tourism (RPTM) to evaluate their interest in those alternateoptions. For example, could RPTM handle local data collection as part of the bid, and on behalf of aconsultant. This idea was received with enthusiasm, so committee members reached out to RPTM inDecember. A follow-up meeting was held in late March when the RFP was 95% complete. Twoadditional follow-up meetings were held with individual professors�Dr. Andy Mowen and Dr. AlanGraefe�to discuss the partnership possibilities. Unfortunately, it became clear that graduate classworkwould not be sufficient to collect the data required for this study; it was suggested that we could partnerwith PSU through a contracting process with potential costs of $25,000-$30,000 which includes salary fora graduate student and professor as well as the costs to write, produce, distribute, collect, and analyze thedata from the community survey. If the committee contracted with PSU, overhead would be included inthe fees paid to PSU; an overhead waiver can be requested, but not guaranteed. Of the two professorsnoted above, only one would be available to conduct this work if a graduate student was available.

Therefore, since more investigation and time was needed, the language related to alternate biddingoptions was removed from the draft RFP, and the RFP was sent to DCNR on April 26 for review.Included with the RFP was the revised Steering Committee membership list, and an updated budgetshowing the in-kind expenses for the CRPR and CRPA departments for the estimated hours of workduring the study.

During DCNR�s review of the RFP, Ms. Salokangas received one follow-up question from our grantliaison and it was to clarify the need to study greenways as well. Per her January discussion with DCNR,CRPR was not planning to do a separate greenways study, but was going to incorporate that language intoour study components within the RFP. Ms. Salokangas suggested that additional language could be addedif the current greenway references were not sufficient.

ى


On May 2, Ms. Salokangas received DCNR�s official notification (enclosed, attachment #4) that theSteering Committee can proceed with the RFP process and selecting a consultant. It is Ms. Salokangas�intent to add the additional greenway language into the RFP in time for the June Steering Committeemtg. At that point, the committee can review the updated timeline, finalize the RFP, and refer it to theExecutive Committee for discussion and approval by the General Forum in June.

B. Steering Committee MembershipDuring the February DCNR conference call to kick-off the grant project, Ms. Salokangas discussed themembership of the Steering Committee. At that time, DCNR felt that the Steering Committeemembership was too narrow and asked us to make adjustments to membership, to consider adding ahandful of new members from the general public or from community groups not already represented. Ms.Salokangas brought that information to the March Steering Committee for discussion. After muchconversation, it was determined that the question should be taken to COG�s Executive Committee fortheir discussion since this group made the initial committee appointments.

At the March Executive Committee meeting, committee members suggested that if DCNR was inagreement, a suggested addition could be a school district board member/appointee. Ms. Salokangasshared this with DCNR and they agreed to that recommendation. Ms. Salokangas requested to the COGExecutive Committee for approval to send a letter to the school board asking them to make anappointment. The COG Executive Committee agreed to this recommendation and forwarded it to theCOG General Forum. On April 23, the COG General Forum endorsed this recommendation and aformal request was made via letter and email to the State College Area School District Board President.

6. WHITEHALL ROAD REGIONAL PARK UPDATE (Pam Salokangas)

Ms. Salokangas had her first meeting with Stahl Sheaffer Engineering on April 5 to determine the nextsteps for this project. The short-term goal is to meet the pending deadline of presenting an updated plan,timeline, and budget to the General Forum on May 29. The plan will include a summary of the amenitiesto be included in the Phase I development of the park, per the overall approved Master Plan. Along withthat summary, the Authority hopes to provide a draft timeline for the project as well as an estimatedbudget related to chosen amenities, surfaces, fields, buildings, utilities (the plan, as noted above).

At the April 23 meeting, the Authority approved the hiring of Fernsler Hutchinson LLC as the architectsfor this plan. The Authority entered into a short-term agreement with the firm to draft one-twoconceptual drawings for the pavilion/restroom/concession stand building in coordination with theplayground and future small pavilions; the firm will also provide construction estimates and investigatesome sustainable building options. Stahl Shaeffer Engineering remains the Authority�s engineers for thisproject. The first team meeting is set for May 9; Ms. Salokangas will provide a verbal report from thismeeting.

The Agency has scheduled a Learning Lunch for newly elected officials, the Authority members, and ParksCapital Committee members for this project. The Learning Lunch is on Monday, May 14 at 12:00pm.The group will have lunch and discuss the project in general and review the Master Site Plan. Based on

ى


the weather, the plan will be to carpool to the property to view it as it relates to the Master Site Plan. Theproperty is currently farmed, so we will not be able to walk over much of the acreage, but we can walk a biton the current farm lane/trail and be able to demonstrate where the driveway and utilities will come intothe park and approximate location of other amenities. If you plan to attend, please RSVP to CherylStamm so that we have enough food for everyone.

7. OTHER BUSINESS

A. Matter of Record � The Millbrook Marsh Nature Center lease project continues at this time. Thelanguage identified in the lease that needed to be updated was forwarded to Penn State to review.The Authority is currently waiting for a meeting with the Penn State team and we are hopefulthat that meeting will take place in late May or early June.

B. Matter of Record - The next joint meeting between the Parks Capital Committee and the CentreRegion Parks & Recreation Authority is scheduled for June 14, 2018, at 12:15pm in the COGGeneral Forum.

12:15 PM

AGENDA

1, CALL TO ORDER Vice Chair Steve Miller will convene the meeting. 2. CITIZEN COMMENTS

Members of the public are invited to comment on any items not already on the agenda (five minutes per person time limit, please). Comments relating to specific items on the agenda should be deferred until that point in the meeting.

3. APPROVAL OF MINUTES A copy of the minutes of the April 17, 2018 Executive Committee meeting is enclosed.

4. GENERAL FORUM AND CRPR AUTHORITY DISCUSSION

This agenda item asks members Executive Committee to decide whether to invite the Centre Region Parks and Recreation Authority to the May 29, 2018 General Forum meeting to provide an update of the Whitehall Road Regional Park Project. This agenda item is follow-up to a motion made by the General Forum during its May 2017 meeting that it meet with the CRPR Authority in May, 2018 to discuss the Whitehall Road Regional Park if construction documents are not executed by that time. The motion approved by the General Forum in 2017 was:

“That the General Forum, as recommended by the Finance Committee and Parks Capital Committee, adopt Resolution 2017-2 asking the Centre Region Parks and Recreation Authority to modify the regional parks loan with Fulton Bank in accordance with its May 1, 2017 proposal. Furthermore, this action is approved with the stipulation that if construction contracts are not executed within a period of time not to exceed one year then the CRPR Authority shall discuss the project with the General Forum prior to proceeding.”*

Executive Committee Agenda May 22, 2018 Page 2 of 6

In response to the General Forum motion, the Executive Committee should consider inviting the Centre Region Parks and Recreation Authority (CRPA) to the General Forum meeting to update the elected officials on the Whitehall Road Regional Park project. It is proposed that the agenda packet for the May 29, 2018 General Forum meeting will contain an updated Phase I Master Site Plan for park improvements that can be constructed within the established budget. Discussion with the Authority’s Project Engineer indicate the park components that can be built within the approved $4.8 million budget include: four playing fields, playground (grant dependent), two practice/open fields, two parking lots, and a combined concession and restroom building. Approximately forty-three acres of the 100 acre parcel are involved in the Phase I project.

The project budget is unchanged:

$4.8 million as approved by the General Forum

CRPR applied for a $300,000 grant in April 2018 from DCNR for an All-Ability and Universally-Accessible Playground for the Whitehall Road Regional Park. Decision will be in November 2018. $300,000 is a match to the $300,000 budgeted in the original Phase I Budget.

CRPR applied for a $50,000 grant in April 2018 from the Central PA Convention and Visitors Bureau for the All-Ability and Universally-Accessible Playground for the Whitehall Road Regional Park. Decision will be in June 2018. No match required.

CRPR plans to apply for the Centre Inspires $100,000 grant program in June 2018; projects will be chosen and evaluated as the summer progresses. Award is given in November 2018. No match required.

CRPR is continuing efforts to solicit large contributions from a few community stakeholder groups such as a Centre County Visitors and Convention Bureau and Centre Soccer. These funds would be targeted at facility improvements such as artificial turf fields and field lighting.

The project timeline anticipates the balance of 2018 will be committed to preparing and submitting a Land Development Plan for consideration by the Ferguson Township Planning Commission and approval by the Ferguson Township Board of Supervisors.

On April 10, 2014 the Parks and Recreation Director (Ron Woodhead) received a copy of a communication from Kenneth Beldin, Senior Engineer for Gwin, Dobson and Foreman the consulting engineer to the State College Borough Water Authority (SCBWA), to Mr. John Lichman, the former SCBWA Executive Director, that provided three general review comments. To respond to these recommendations in a responsive manner the following changes have occurred.

The parks maintenance facility has been removed from the plan so there will not be any stormwater run-off issues from this structure.


The community gardens will be organically maintained as a condition to receiving a plot. Subsequently there will be no uses of “pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers.”

Funding to construct a dog park will not be included in the Phase I development plan. People who walk their dogs at the park will be expected to clean-up after them. This will eliminate the concern about animal waste.

Some of the updates since the General Forum last discussed Whitehall Road Regional Park are:

a) The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of the “Cottages at State College” project (Springton Pointe – Developer). The engineer for Toll Brothers confirmed to COG staff that the Park may connect to the Cottage’s road, sewage, water and other utilities system. The COG infrastructures cost would be limited to direct expenses for making the connection and will not include the costs of building the road or other improvements.

b) The Authority retained the services Fernsler Hutchinson Architecture, State College, as the Project Architect.

c) The Authority continued with Stahl Schaeffer, State College, as the Project Engineer.

d) The COG will not be responsible for traffic improvements (for example traffic signals) or for conducting a separate traffic study for the park. Both expenses will be the responsibility of Toll Brothers and be included in its Traffic Study.

There are a few issues that are still under discussion including:

The level of public donations for additional improvements such as field lights and/or artificial playing turf.

The routing of the sewer line and location of the pump station. Discussions are occurring between the University Area Joint Authority and the State College Borough Water Authority on this matter.

At this time the comments from the Ferguson Township Planning Commission and the Ferguson Township Board of Supervisors regarding the land development plan for the project are not known.

The Executive Committee should decide whether to refer this agenda item to the General Forum as an information item to review, note areas of concern, and offer comments to the Authority.

5. UAJA ANNUAL REPORT This agenda item asks members of the Executive Committee to schedule a five minute presentation (not including time for questions and responses) on the UAJA Annual Report


for the May 29, 2018 General Forum meeting. This is an information item and does not require action from the General Forum. Mr. Cory Miller has asked the Executive Committee to schedule a presentation to the General Forum of the UAJA’s annual report. The Executive Committee should decide whether to schedule this report.

6. 2018 TRICK OR TREAT NIGHT

This agenda item asks members of the Executive Committee to forward to the General Forum a recommended date for 2018 Trick or Treat Night. For the last 38 years, the General Forum has recommended a date for the Centre Region municipalities to designate as Trick-or-Treat night. Consistent with that tradition, the Centre Region Parks and Recreation Director has asked the Centre Region Police Chiefs for a recommended date. The three Centre Region Police Chiefs and the Parks and Recreation Director recommend that Wednesday, October 31, 2018 be designated Trick-or-Treat night in the Centre Region. To proceed, the Executive Committee should consider forwarding the following motion to the General Forum for approval:

“That based upon recommendations from the Centre Region Police Chiefs and the Centre Region Parks and Recreation Director, the Executive Committee recommends to the General Forum that the Centre Region municipalities designate Wednesday, October 31, 2018 between the hours of 6:00pm and 8:00pm as Trick-or-Treat night, with the exception of Halfmoon Township where the hours will be 5:30pm to 8:30pm on that same day.”

The Executive Committee should discuss the Police Chiefs and Parks and Recreation Director’s recommended motion designating the time and date for “Trick or Treat” night and decide whether to forward it to the General Forum.

7. JULY GENERAL FORUM MEETING DATE This agenda item asks the Executive Committee to consider recommending to the General Forum to change the date for the July COG meeting from Monday, July 23 to Monday July

The probable date for the annual CRPR Halloween Costume Parade is Sunday, October 28, 2018.


30 to give the staff additional time to prepare the 2019 Program Plan and incorporate the Finance Committee’s comments into it. The current calendar for the General Forum’s 2018 meeting dates identifies a July 23 meeting date for the General Forum. During its May meeting, the Finance Committee discussed the idea of moving the date a week late to July 30. This change, if approved, will give the COG staff additional time to finalize, assemble and print the 2019 COG Program Plan as it may be endorsed by the Finance Committee during its July 10 meeting. It was noted during the Finance Committee meeting that the Committee is likely to propose changes to the Program Plan and, if so, the short turn-around time for a July 23 COG meeting would make it difficult to capture all the revisions and make the resulting formatting changes. The Executive Committee should decide whether to recommend a change in the date for the July General Forum meeting.

8. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REPORT Mr. Steff will report on items of general interest to the committee for May 2018.

9. OTHER BUSINESS A. Matter of Record – Next month’s meeting of the General Forum is scheduled for

June 25, 2018 at the COG Building. Tentative agenda items include the possible review of the RFP for the Parks and Recreation Regional Comprehensive Plan if referred by the Steering Committee.

B. Matter of Record – During its May 9, meeting the HR Committee unanimously approved the following motion:

“That the Human Resources Committee award the contract for review and update of the COG Personnel Policy Handbook and supervisory trainings to N.J. Hess Associates in the amount of $9,750 plus mileage.”

C. Matter of Record – At the May 10, 2018 meeting the Finance Committee discussed

the budget target/guideline. Staff, in the agenda and further discussed at the meeting, made the following recommendation as to the budget target:

“That the General Forum, as recommended by the Finance Committee, endorse a target for the Centre Region COG that the increase in municipal contributions for the 2019 budget should be 3.75% or less from the 2018 approved COG budget. And further, that any new initiative, such as the fire stipend, or capital funding request, such as the Millbrook Marsh Phase II construction, be exempted from the target and based solely on its merits and


financial feasibility as identified by the Finance Committee in the 2019 Detailed Budget that is recommended to the General Forum for adoption.”

Mr. Downsbrough moved this motion and it failed with a lack of a second. After much discussion Mr. Downsbrough and Mr. Steve Miller agreed that no motion would be necessary if the Committee elected not to set a guideline. Therefore no motion was made and, in effect, at this point the direction of the Finance Committee to the General Forum is that a budget target/guideline is not necessary and the process will continue with the preparation of the Program Plan.

D. Matter of Record – A Learning Lunch session has been scheduled at the UAJA facility on Wednesday, May 30, 2018. Lunch will be available at 12:00 noon and Cory Miller, UAJA Executive Director, will provide an overview of the collection and treatment, composting and beneficial reuse systems, current and future authority issues, and organizational structure. Beginning around 1:00pm there will be an approximately one-hour tour of the treatment and beneficial reuse areas. If you are interested and able to attend this session please contact Cheryl Stamm at [email protected].

E. Matter of Record – Enclosed is communication from Steve Miller to Brian Heiser at the State College Borough Water Authority regarding the land use at Whitehall Road Regional Park.

Year in Review

Facility ExpansionCATA is in the midst of a major facility renovation and expansion at its W. Whitehall Road location. The project, funded by a combination of state, federal and local grants, resulted from the fact that the agency had outgrown its existing facility by approximately 40 percent.

The expansion, expected to be completed in 2018, consists of three phases, two of which have now been, or are nearly, constructed. The first phase, completed in early spring, included a combination parking structure and operations facility. The second phase, expected to be completed in August, is a building housing on the first floor a new state-of-the-art maintenance facility, and on the second and third floors administrative and training spaces.

The third and final phase of the project will include the repurposing of the existing maintenance and storage structure into a new area that will expand the facility to house nearly one hundred buses. It is expected this phase will be completed in the Summer of 2018.

Strategic Plan Focus:Addressing Growth Prudently

Community Input ProcessCATA as an organization acknowledges that public participation is an integral part of the transportation planning process, and welcomes feedback, comments and suggestions from its customers and the general public through a variety of venues and processes: its Customer Service Center, board of directors meetings, comments and suggestions brochures, social media, triannual customer satisfaction surveys, annual community input meetings for both CATABUS and CATARIDE services, and public hearings. This year, what was originally referred to as an annual “public hearing” held in February was replaced with annual CATABUS and CATARIDE Community Input Meetings held in January and February respectively. This change resulted from a re-evaluation of CATA’s customer input process. There are plans to move the meetings to October/November in an effort to best align this comment with the development of CATA’s annual budget.

In addition to these annual meetings to gather input, a formal public hearing also took place in June, as CATA prepared for a fare increase on its CATABUS system from $1.75 to $2.00 and on its CATARIDE system ($3.00 to $3.25 discounted rates).

Fleet ManagementStaff has requested capital funding to replace the sys-tem’s ten 1998 and ten 2001 New Flyer buses. The intention is to purchase twenty buses in the near term, and, if funding continues to become available, another four buses to replace the 2004 ElDorado vehicles.

Campus Shelter ReplacementsAs part of the partnership CATA has with the University to incorporate a new modern bus shelter design on campus, the Intramural Building bus stop on campus received a new shelter and supportive pedestrian amenities earlier this year.

This summer, two more of CATA’s busiest campus stops will also receive improvements. In addition to improved pedestrian access and an expanded waiting area, the stops on Curtin Road at the Pavilion Theatre and Visual Arts Building are having the shelters replaced with the new larger style introduced previously at the Millennium Science Building, the White Building, and now the IM Building stops. Another of these new shelters will replace the existing shelter along Curtin Road at the Stadium West Parking lot stop later this summer. The replacement and enhancements to this stop are part of a solar power demonstration project partially supported by a Penn State class gift. The new shelter will have solar panels integrated into the roof that will power a number of passenger features including charging stations, and real-time departure information using e-paper technology.


Land Development ProcessCATA staff continued their involvement this year in the review and comment process for local land development plans. Over the course of the year, they had reviewed and provided formal comment on over twenty different plans and/or proposed local ordinance changes, and, in several cases, bus stop improvements were included in the approved plans.

Articulated Bus StudyWith consultant assistance from Foursquare Integrated Transportation Planning of Rockville, Maryland, CATA initiated an assessment of the use of articulated buses in the CATABUS system. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the potential use of articulated buses within the CATA service area against current and projected future operations, maintenance practices, routing, bus and passenger amenities, and community preferences. Consultants and CATA staff worked to establish goals, methods, and expectations for the project; collected and analyzed a wide variety of CATA operating and maintenance data; completed a literature review of best industry practices with respect to articulated vehicle use, and an assessment of CATA’s existing operational and maintenance conditions; moderated a series of stakeholder outreach sessions; and completed interviews with representatives from transit agencies who operate articulated vehicles in similar peer communities.


Travel Training ProgramIn 2015, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT)’s Bureau of Public Transportation awarded the Centre Regional Planning Agency (CRPA) a grant to work with CATA staff to develop a pilot travel training program in Centre County. Travel training instruction is a service offered to individuals with disabilities, seniors and others who need assistance to increase their mobility and independent travel on public transportation.

The concept of the program is that CATA staff will work with local agencies and provide the agencies with “train the trainer” hands-on experience materials that will assist them in explaining the benefits of fixed-route over paratransit services to clients and participants and how to be confident in the use of fixed-route services. The team built a pilot program in conjunction with two agencies – one working with senior citizens (the Centre Region Active Adult Center) and the other working with persons with disabilities (Skills of Central Pennsylvania).

The program was completed and launched in late fall and is now in effect; staff is continuing to monitor the success of the program before expanding it to other human service agencies.

Strategic Plan Focus:Advance Technologically

Solar Lighting ProjectLast year, CATA applied for and received federal Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) grant funding for the purchase and analysis of the viability of solar lighting solutions at bus stops. CATA had previously, in an effort to determine specifications for the grant application, installed samples of various solar lighting kits at several popular stops in the system. Using that information, and based on employee and customer comment, twenty additional kits were purchased upon award of the grant.

Solar lighting has now been placed at thirteen bus shelters located along Martin Street, Aaron Drive and Vairo Boulevard. These corridors were strategically chosen because they represent the high-density areas in the system where existing lighting was inadequate.

Mobile App ExpansionThis year, CATA staff began collaborating with two national real-time transit app developers, TransLoc and The Transit app, to incorporate CATABUS schedule data into their programs for their use in an effort to create CATA versions of their apps.


Electric Bus DemonstrationIn March, CATA had on loan from bus manufacturer New Flyer an Xcelsior XE40 zero-emission battery-electric bus for a week. During this time, the bus was placed into service to give staff an opportunity to exam-ine whether this type of vehicle may be one that the au-thority might consider in the future, and to provide cus-tomers with an opportunity to provide comment on their experience. The 40’ bus, powered with up to 300 kWh of energy (equivalent to 105,000 AA batteries) stored in rechargeable high voltage lithium batteries on the roof and at the rear of the vehicle, operates 89-140 miles on a single 1.6 hour charge.

Employee RecognitionTwo CATA employees were recognized by the Penn-sylvania Public Transportation Association (PPTA) for their dedication and service to both CATA and the trans-portation industry.

Ed DelBaggio, a Class I Mechanic, and Rick McClellan, a former Class I Mechanic, now a maintenance supervisor, were nominated by CATA and chosen by PPTA to receive the Outstanding Public Transportation Department Team award.

Ed and Rick had observed that CATA’s mechanics sometimes lacked the necessary knowledge and understanding of various systems and components in order to effectively diagnose issues cost-effective manner.

Strategic Plan Focus:Plan for Succession

Together they developed a plan to teach CATA’s mechanics what they needed to know about an air system and its components in order to properly maintain and repair one, and did so by building a labeled diagnostic board that displays a complete, working New Flyer bus air system, from the air dryer to the brake pedal. An error, in the form of a faulty component, etc., can be introduced, allowing a mechanic or group of mechanics to troubleshoot the board to diagnose and repair the problem.

In addition, Ed and Rick also developed scenarios for the trainees to work through. And, to assist employees who would like to be considered for advancement in the future, a 1-day training on recognition and diagnosis of air system problems was developed, along with a 1.5-day training for Class 2 mechanics that allows the trainee to diagnose, repair or rebuild air system components.


B (Boalsburg) Route Promotion

CATA staff partnered this year with Murphy Carpenter, a marketing firm based in Lemont, on the promotion of ridership on the B (Boalsburg) Route across the months of April and May. Marketing efforts to educate residents and encourage ridership and/or increased individual ridership included: a direct mail piece, which included four complimentary ride passes, distributed to over 3,200 households within a quarter mile of the route; a website landing page, broute.catabus.com, which included route and schedule information; boosted social media posts; and a feature article in the CATAlog email newsletter. All told 229 complimentary passes were used, 94 persons viewed the website, and ridership on the B Route at the end of the fiscal year reflected an overall 6.2% increase over the prior year.

Harner submitted a proposal to rezone approximately 71 acres of land located at 2191 West Whitehall Road. The property is currently zoned Rural Agriculture with Corridor Overlay. The proposal is to rezone 27.3 acres to Commercial (C)/Corridor Overlay and 44.1 acres to Single Family Residential (R-1). Significant differences in this proposal from the original include the elimination of the R-2 zoning district and decrease in commercial acreage (17.3 acres). The Harner Farm Rezoning was first proposed in 2017, but was denied by the Board of Supervisors at the time. Since the denial of the Plan, Aspen Whitehall Partners, LLC met with local residents and received feedback. The proposed rezoning request was revised and resubmitted based upon that feedback. On Monday, April 2, 2018, the Board of Supervisors voted to move the proposed rezoning to the Planning Commission for review, comment and recommendation. Staff sent the Plan to Centre County, Centre Regional Planning Agency, SCBWA, UAJA, SCASD, and the Township Solicitor for initial review and comment. The Planning Commission had an opportunity to review and comment on the proposal at their meeting on April 9, 2018. On April 23, the Planning Commission voted 3:2, recommending approval to the Board of Supervisors. On May 7, 2018, the Board of Supervisors authorized the advertisement for a Public Hearing, which is scheduled for June 18, 2018. Letters have sent to adjoining property owners as per the requirements of the MPC and the property will be posted prior to the Public Hearing.
