Included herein is the semiannual report for the reporting period of April 1, 2005 to September 30, 2005. The report includes an updated comparison of actual growth rate in comparison to the projections and assumption 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 Advisory Committee to advise the City Council of the need to update the land use assumptions, capital improvements plan, and impact fees. At this time, it is not recommended these items be updated.

As shown on Figures 2 and 3, actual water usage has been below the projection because 2004 and early Spring 2005 were unusually wet periods resulting in lower demands for water.

There was a slight increase in building permits to 1,319 new housing starts for 2005. Figure 7 Annual Single Family Permits Issued WATER SYSTEM CIP AND MAJOR INITIATIVES Major Initiatives - Lake Travis Water Supply - The Lake Travis Raw Water Supply Alternatives Study which was completed in September 2005 recommended that the most cost effective alternative for the City to access Lake Travis water is to form a partnership with Cedar Park and/or Lower Colorado River Authority. Discussions are underway to negotiate a long term agreement with these two entities. Lake Georgetown Raw Water Pump Station and Intake Expansion - The Water Treatment Plant expansion to a capacity of 48 Million Gallons Per Day was completed in Spring of 2004. The Raw Water Delivery System from Lake Georgetown to State Highway 29 is in the process of being expanded to 48 MGD so the full capacity at the treatment plant can be utilized. Design is currently 38% complete. Bids will be opened in the spring of 2006 and construction will be complete September 2007. McNutt Creek Interceptor - Staff negotiated an agreement with Double J MUD and Paloma Lake MUD who will participate in the McNutt Creek Interceptor project. The MUD's will pay approximately $5 million reducing the City's cost from $13.5 million to $8.5 million. Final design of the project is 75 % complete. 6 2/1/2006 Listed below is a summary of the Water and Wastewater System CIP projects progress and major initiatives underway.

Sincerely yours, Al Kosik Chairman, Capital Improvements Advisory Committee CITY OF ROUND ROCK PLANNING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 301 W. Bagdad, Suite 210 • Round Rock, Texas 78664 Phone: 512.218.5428 • Fax: 512.218.3286 • www.ci.round-rock.tx.us DATE: February 16, 2006 SUBJECT: City Council Meeting - February 23, 2006 ITEM: 10.C.1. Consider a resolution accepting the recommendation from the Capital Improvements Impact Fee Advisory Committee regarding a land use and impact fee report. Department: Water and Wastewater Utilities Staff Person: Tom Clark, Director Justification: The Local Government Code Section 395.058 requires the Capital Improvements Impact Fee Advisory Committee 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 semiannual report for the reporting period of April 1, 2005 to September 30, 2005. The Committee met on January 11, 2006 and reviewed the report and determined there are no inequities in implementing the plan or imposing the fee. Funding: Cost: N/A Source of funds: N/A Outside Resources: Capital Improvements Impact Fee Advisory Committee Background Information: Water and wastewater impact fees are charged to offset the cost of constructing infrastructure to keep up with development. Impact fees allow for growth to pay for itself rather than being paid for by ratepayers. An Advisory Committee is comprised of the Planning and Zoning Commission, a non-voting member from Williamson County and a non- voting member of the Home Builders Association of Austin. The committee meets semiannually to review the semiannual report and recommends to Council any perceived inequities in implementing the plan or imposing the impact fee. Public Comment: N/A
