SUMMARY
The Local Government Code Section 395.058 requires the Capital
Improvement Advisory Committee (CIAC) to report to the political subdivision
the progress of the capital improvements plan and any perceived inequities in
implementing the plan or imposing the impact fee. Included herein is the
semi-annual report for the reporting period of October 1, 2018 to March 31,
2019. This report includes an updated assessment of the actual growth rate
in comparison to the projections and assumptions made in the report; projects
completed or initiated during the period; and impact fees collected during the
period. These comparisons are used as indicators of the need to update the
land use assumptions, capital improvements plan or impact fees.
The local government code also requires the Capital Improvement Advisory
Committee to advise the City Council of the need to update the land use
assumptions, capital improvements plan and impact fees. These items were
last updated by the City in November 2015.

Figure 1 represents Ground and Surface water use, along with the number of
active water services over the past two years. Although the City continues to
grow, the total water production has remained fairly level over the past two
years. Part of this reason could be because water usage is dependent on
weather patterns; however, the City's conservation and reuse water programs
are also affecting the amount of potable water usage by the City. In regard to
total permits issued, 2018 was the highest on record since 2006.

Figure 2 reflects the monthly potable water production over the past eight
years. As can be expected, the average daily demand increases during the
summer months; however, total water production is dependent on weather
conditions, which affects discretionary water usage.
Figure 2
3 6/6/2019
Figure 3 reflects the monthly potable treated water production and the Type I
Reuse treated water production. The City's reuse water system began
production in October 2012 with three customers: Old Settlers Park, Dell
Diamond, and Forest Creek Golf Course. Since that time, the City has
expanded the system to include Forest Creek HOA, Legends Village
Subdivision, Austin Community College, Texas A&M Health Science Center,
the Forest Grove and Vizcaya Subdivisions. The City continues to promote the
reuse water system in the Northeast part of Round Rock and as depicted in
Figure 3, the demand continues to grow.

Figure 4 shows the number of single-family building permits issued annually.
The number of new housing starts per year in the City of Round Rock has
ranged from 222 to 911 over the past ten years. Single-family permits have
slowed down slightly from last year. The City issued 350 permits in the first
four months of 2018 and 248 in the first four months of 2019. Most of the
activity is in the Vizcaya, Gardens at Mayfield Ranch, Pioneer Point, Diamond
Oaks, Freeman Park, Cottages of Meadow Lake, Summit at Round Rock, Kenny
Fort, Legends Village and Madsen Ranch subdivisions and Sunrise Condos.
Several Municipal Utility Districts (MUDs) located in Round Rock's extra-
territorial jurisdiction (ETJ) continue to experience a steady number of single-
family housing starts during this time as well.

annually. Currently, there are three multi -family complexes, Round Rock
Plaza, Shadow Ridge, and Holly Brook Apartments, under construction. There
are currently no multi -family permits in for review.

In FY-17, commercial growth continued to be strong, even though the number
of permits was down. Many of the permits issued in FY-17 were larger projects
such as UPS. Forty-three commercial permits were issued in FY-18. Current
permits are mostly hotels, office buildings, retail stores, restaurants, schools,
and industrial warehouse facilities.
7 6/6/2019
Table 3 and Figure 5 summarize the impact fees collected from FY-15 through
the first half of FY-19 for residential and commercial building permits. There
has been a significant increase in the amount of impact fees collected during
this time due to the construction in single-family residential, multi -family
residential and commercial developments.

In 2015, the latest version of the water model assumed that 1,524 LUEs per
year would be added to the water system. For an impact fee of $4,025 per
LUE, this would indicate that the City should have collected approximately
$6.13 million per year in water impact fees if the City would be growing as
projected.
The wastewater model assumed that 1,089 LUEs would be added to the
wastewater system per year. For an impact fee of $2,099 per LUE, this would
indicate that the City should have collected approximately $2.29 million per
year in wastewater impact fees if the City would be growing as projected.
Comparing these assumptions to the actual impact fees collected indicates
that the first half of FY-19 new connections to our water and wastewater
systems are slightly higher than projected.

Table 4 provides population projections for Round Rock and Round Rock's ET].
These projections, anticipating a steady growth rate, indicate that in order to
keep up with growth, capital improvements to the City's water and wastewater
utility systems would be necessary. However, 2012-2019 estimates, shown in
parenthesis, indicate a slightly slower growth rate than projected.

Table 8 compares Round Rock's Water and Wastewater Impact Fees to
other Central Texas cities. Historically, Round Rock had one of the
highest total impact fees charged for new connections to the water and
wastewater systems. However, several of the surrounding cities have
increased their fees over the past few years and have surpassed Round
Rock. Round Rock's philosophy is for new customers and developments
to pay for the capital improvements that are required due to the growth.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The CIAC and City Council approved the new Impact Fees which went
into effect March 1, 2016. Although the projected population growth in
Round Rock is proceeding at a slightly slower rate than what was
anticipated in the impact fee report, this has not caused a significant
concern since the number of connections to the water and wastewater
systems are occurring at the projected rate anticipated by the City.
As a result of the potential volatility in growth rates and infrastructure
requirements, the City recommends the impact fees be reviewed every
three to four years so that the fees are set according to the growth
patterns and needs of the water and wastewater utility system
improvements. It is anticipated that we will update our Water and
Wastewater Master Plans in 2019. Following the Master Plan update, we
will review our adopted impact fees. The next Capital Improvements
Plan Progress Report will be presented to the CIAC and to the City
Council in approximately six months.
