Town of Marana
Impact Fee Study Update and
Parks Infrastructure Improvement Plan
Part 1
Introduction and Methodology
1. Introduction
Town of Marana Impact Fee Study Update
and Parks Infrastructure Improvement Plan
September 20, 2022 1-1
Introduction:
In accordance with Arizona Revised Statute (ARS) §9-463.05 the Town of Marana assesses and collects
Development Impact Fees to help pay for the construction of new parks and recreational facilities as
needed to meet the increased demands placed on the municipal park system by new development.
As a precedent to the collection of Development Impact Fees, §9-463.05 requires that an Infrastructure
Improvement Plan (IIP) be prepared to identify the required improvements. Per the subject statute, the IIP
is defined as:
“…. a written plan that identifies each necessary public service or facility expansion that is proposed to
be the subject of a development fee and otherwise complies with the requirements of this section and
may be the municipality's capital improvements plan.”
Included in this document is the Town of Marana’s updated Park Infrastructure Improvement Plan. This
new IIP replaces the 2017 IIP which was adopted by Marana Resolution 2017-090 on September 19, 2017.
This new plan includes fee schedules and a list of capital improvements that are projected to be
constructed over the next ten years.
2. Methodology
Town of Marana Impact Fee Study Update
and Parks Infrastructure Improvement Plan
September 20, 2022 2-1
Methodology:
This Impact Fee Study Update employs an incremental expansion method that identifies the Town’s existing
level of service and projects the level of service assumptions over the next ten years as the community
grows. The existing level of service for parks and recreation facilities is assigned a value based on the cost of
replacement. The value of the parks and recreation system is adjusted to subtract outstanding debt on
existing facilities, the balance collected, unspent impact fees, developer fee credits and the cost of the
Impact Fee Study.
Demand for an expanded park system will be driven by both residential and non- residential development.
The primary driver will be residential development. As new homes are built in the community, the residents
that occupy these homes will use the various park resources available to them. The secondary driver will be
new non-residential development. As offices, retail outlets, medical offices, and other non-residential
facilities are constructed, these facilities will create jobs for individuals including those living outside of the
Town. These employees will use Town Park facilities before or after work or during lunch-time breaks.
Based on the above, the service units for residential development will be Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDU’s).
The service unit for non-residential development will be 1,000 S.F. of Non-Residential Development.
The adjusted value of the existing parks and recreation facilities is then distributed across the existing level
of community development to calculate a value of the existing parks system per service unit. The adjusted
value of the existing parks and recreation facilities relative to current development is then projected onto
new development using estimates for future development found in the Town’s land use assumptions.
Using this methodology, the Town’s existing level of parks and recreation service is maintained as the
community grows and the expansion of parks and recreation facilities necessary to meet the demand of
growth has a supplemental funding source in development impact fees.
The advantages of using this incremental expansion method over other methods (e.g., a general standards
based or plan-based method), include the following:
• The fee is based on the existing level of service provided by the Town instead of a national standard
that fails to account for local jurisdictional variations.
• The incremental expansion method more accurately identifies the value of existing level of service
compared to estimating a general cost per acre of developed parkland. Existing level of service is valued
by assigning replacement costs to inventoried park assets.
• The incremental expansion method is flexible because the impact fee is based on existing level of
service. Consequently, the Town may fine tune capital improvements identified in the IIP to meet
changing community recreation needs. A standards-based approach based on the Parks and Recreation
Master Plan would require an update to the Master Plan and a re-calculation of the impact fees to
meet changing community needs.

and Parks Infrastructure Improvement Plan
September 20, 2022 3-1
Service Area:
Service areas are defined in ARS §9-463.05 (T)9 as:
“… any specified area within the boundaries of a municipality in which development will be
served by necessary public services or facility expansions and within which a substantial nexus
exists between the necessary public services or facility expansions and the development being
served as prescribed in the infrastructure improvements plan.”
For purposes of this Impact Fee Study Update, there is one service area identified for the Town of Marana.
This service area is shown in Figure 2, below. The service area includes all areas within the jurisdictional
boundaries of the Town with the exception of lands within the Dove Mountain Specific Plan boundary. The
Dove Mountain area is excluded based on a Town approved Development Agreement. For the remainder of
the Town, the most densely developed areas are where existing municipal parks and recreation facilities
are located. These densely developed areas are served by the Town’s existing parks and other recreation
facilities. It is in areas of new development that park and recreation facility expansion is needed to meet
the demands created by growth.

Consequently, new facilities that expand the parks and recreation system will directly benefit residents in
areas of new growth in keeping with the legislative requirements for collecting development impact fees.
There is, however, a need for additional trails to serve the developed areas of Marana. Since the Town is
committed to providing a uniform level of service across the entire town, a single service area will be used.
4. Inventory of Existing Parks and Replacement Value
Town of Marana Impact Fee Study Update
and Parks Infrastructure Improvement Plan
September 20, 2022 4 -1
Inventory of Existing Parks:
Provided on the following pages is a chart that summarizes the assets associated with the Town of
Marana’s existing park system. It includes only improvement types that would be eligible for impact fee
funding and excludes items not eligible based on ARS §9-463.05. Per ARS §9-463.05.A, development impact
fees may be used:
“… to offset costs to the municipality associated with providing necessary public services to a
development, including the costs of infrastructure, improvements, real property, engineering and
architectural services, financing and professional services required for the preparation or revision of a
development fee pursuant to this section, including the relevant portion of the infrastructure
improvement plan.”
Per ARS §9-463.05.B and 9-463.05.T., development impact fees may not be used for:
“Construction, acquisition or expansion of public facilities or assets other than necessary public services
or facility expansions identified in the infrastructure improvements plan.”
“Repair, operation or maintenance of existing or new necessary public services or facility expansions.”
“Upgrading, updating, expanding, correcting or replacing existing necessary public services to serve
existing development in order to meet stricter safety, efficiency, environmental or regulatory
standards.”
“Upgrading, updating, expanding, correcting or replacing existing necessary public services to provide a
higher level of service to existing development.”
“Administrative, maintenance or operating costs of the municipality.”
“… vehicles, equipment or that portion of any facility that is used for amusement parks, aquariums,
aquatic centers, auditoriums, arenas, arts and cultural facilities, bandstand and orchestra facilities,
bathhouses, boathouses, clubhouses, community centers greater than three thousand square feet in
floor area, environmental education centers, equestrian facilities, golf course facilities, greenhouses,
lakes, museums, theme parks, water reclamation or riparian areas, wetlands, zoo facilities or similar
recreational facilities, but may include swimming pools.”

5. Allocation of Asset Value to Residential and Non-Residential Land-Uses
Town of Marana Impact Fee Study Update
and Parks Infrastructure Improvement Plan
September 20, 2022 5-1
Allocation of Asset Value:
ARS §9-463.05(B)13 provides:
If development fees are assessed by a municipality, the fees shall be assessed against commercial,
residential and industrial development…
In-as-much as residential and non-residential development will impact the need for additional parks, it is
necessary to allocate asset value to each so that a proportionate share can be assessed to each type of
development. This allocation is based on Residential Hours and Non-Resident (Inflow Commuter) Hours
each year. The Inflow Commuter Hours are hours non-residents will spend at jobs within the Town.
According to U.S. Census Bureau web application OnTheMap (2019 US Census), there are 10,640 Inflow
Commuters working within the Town of Marana. The 2019 Census also identifies the resident population of
Marana to be 49,030. Based on this data, the allocation of asset value is calculated as follows:

6. Service Units – Residential Development
Town of Marana Impact Fee Study Update
and Parks Infrastructure Improvement Plan
September 20, 2022 6-1
Service Units - Residential:
ARS §9-463.05 requires that service units be defined in an impact fee study and used as the basis for impact
fee collection. This Impact Fee Study uses an Equivalent Demand Unit (EDU) as the service unit for the park
impact fee for residential uses.
To calculate an EDU, housing unit types are weighted in relation to single-family detached housing. The
weight of each housing type reflects a park service multiplier derived from the average household size for
each housing type based on United States Census Bureau statistics. The average household size for a single-
family detached housing unit is 2.7 while the average household size of a multi-family/single-family
attached housing unit is 1.8. The park service multiplier for a single-family detached residence is therefore
1.0 while the park service multiplier for a multi-family/single-family attached dwelling unit is 0.67. The sum
of these weighted dwelling units by housing type results in total EDUs for the Town.
Unlike impact fee studies for parks improvements, impact fee studies for transportation infrastructure
expansion often use land use categories that are identified through analysis of vehicle usage and trip data
that is available locally and is part of published transportation planning literature. Because there is no data
on visits to existing parks, the Impact Fee Study for Parks and Recreation Facilities makes use of the
differentiation between single-family and multi-family residential units and their average household sizes to
fine tune the definition of service units for the purpose of establishing a park impact fee.

Town of Marana Impact Fee Study Update
and Parks Infrastructure Improvement Plan
September 20, 2022 7-1
Necessary Public Services - Existing:
As required in ARS §9-463.05(E)1, an IIP must include:
“A description of the existing necessary public services in the service area and the costs to
upgrade, update, improve, expand, correct or replace those necessary public services to meet
existing needs and usage and stricter safety, efficiency, environmental or regulatory standards,
which shall be prepared by qualified professionals licensed in this state, as applicable.”
In addition, ARS §9-463.05(E)2 requires:
“An analysis of the total capacity, the level of current usage and commitments for usage of
capacity of the existing necessary public services, which shall be prepared by qualified
professionals licensed in this state, as applicable.”
In response to the required analysis of existing, necessary public park services, an inventory of parks and
recreation assets throughout the Town of Marana has been compiled. (See Section 4 of this document). The
inventory was based on data provided by the Town of Marana Parks and Recreation Department and lists
existing park amenities by facility (site) with an identified replacement cost. The inventory excludes park
acreage beyond the 30-acre limit referenced in ARS §9463.05(T)7(g).
The existing level of service provided by the Town’s current parks and recreation facilities is quantified by
distributing the value of the existing parks and recreation facilities over the total number of existing EDUs in
the Town. The existing number of EDUs is described in Figure 5. Figure 3 describes the total value of existing
parks and recreation infrastructure. The existing level of service provided by the Town of Marana’s park
infrastructure is quantified by dividing the total value of the existing infrastructure (See Section 4) by the
existing number of EDUs (Figure 5).

September 20, 2022 8-1
Projected Service Units for New Development:
ARS §9-463.05(E)5 requires and IIP to include:
“The total number of projected service units necessitated by and attributable to new development
in the service area based on the approved land use assumptions and calculated pursuant to
generally accepted engineering and planning criteria.”
The Town of Marana has developed Land Use Assumptions that estimate the number of new dwelling units
expected over the next ten years. Figure 9 presents the existing and future dwelling units in the 10-year
window based on the Town’s Land Use Assumptions. The final result is the number of new EDUs expected
over the next ten years.

Projected Park Impact Fee Revenue (January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2032):
ARS §9-463.05(E)6 requires an IIP to include:
“The projected demand for necessary public services or facility expansions required by new
service units for a period not to exceed ten years.”
Figure 10 calculates the total expected revenue from impact fees collected between January 1, 2023 and
December 31, 2032 based on the estimated number of new EDUs (Figure 9) and updated impact fee.
The total projected revenue does not include development credits.

$39,982,027.11
ARS §9-463.05(E)7 requires an IIP to include:
“A forecast of revenues generated by new service units other than development fees,
which shall include estimated state-shared revenue, highway users revenue, federal
revenue, ad valorem property taxes, construction contracting or similar excise taxes and
the capital recovery portion of utility fees attributable to development based on the
approved land use assumptions, and a plan to include these contributions in determining
the extent of the burden imposed by the development as required in subsection B,
paragraph 12 of this section.”
The Town of Marana collects no property tax to include in revenue forecasts. However, the Town does
collect a 4% construction sales tax and also receives revenue from the state related to gas taxes. It is
recommended that Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) of the sales tax be credited on a per EDU basis,
resulting in a fee of Two Thousand Five-Hundred and Twenty-Nine Dollars and Sixty-Three cents
($2,529.63) per EDU. Figure 11 calculates the projected revenue and percent of planned costs covered by
this revenue forecast. The remainder of the sales tax credit would be credited against the yet-to-be-
calculated Street Facilities fee.
It is recommended that the credits associated with HURF/VLT be applied fully to the street facilities fee. If
approved, no additional credits would be applied to the Parks and Recreational Facilities fee.

Service Units – Non-Residential Development:
ARS §9-463.05 requires that service units be defined in an impact fee study and used as the basis for impact
fee collection. This Impact Fee Study uses Jobs per 1,000 S.F. as the service unit for non-residential
development.
There are several categories of non-residential development, and each will result in a different quantity of
jobs per square foot of development. These categories, and the quantity of jobs that will be created per
1,000 square foot of new development, are identified in the Land Use Assumptions (Table 4) and are
summarized below.

Park Impact Fee – Non-Residential Development:
The park expansion and development costs allocated to non-residential development equals 4% of the cost
of required improvements or $1,665,918.00. (4% x $41,647,945, the value of required improvement
needed to maintain the current level of service). This cost will be borne by the 8,584 new jobs that will be
created within the town, resulting in a fee of $194.00 per job.

As noted in Section 9 of this report, the Town collects a 4% construction sales tax with these revenues
contributing to park expansion and development. It is recommended that One Hundred Dollars ($100.00)
of the sales tax revenue be credited on a per 1,000 S.F. of new non-residential development basis. With this
credit, the adjusted impact fees, by development type, are identified below.

Necessary Public Services - New Development:
ARS §9-463.05(E)3 requires:
“A description of all or the parts of the necessary public services or facility expansions and their
costs necessitated by and attributable to development in the service area based on the approved
land use assumptions, including a forecast of the costs of infrastructure, improvements, real
property, financing, engineering and architectural services, which shall be prepared by qualified
professionals licensed in this state, as applicable.”
In response to the statutory mandate for a description of parks and recreation facility expansion projects
required to meet the demand of new growth, the Town of Marana has developed the Ten-Year Capital
Improvement Plan for park facilities. This plan is summarized in Figure 19 below. Impact fees that are
collected between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2032 will be directed to the capital improvements
identified in Figure 19 with the understanding that A.R.S. §9-463.05 allows that:
“…a municipality may amend an infrastructure improvements plan adopted pursuant to this section
without a public hearing if the amendment addresses only elements of necessary public services in the
existing infrastructure improvements plan and the changes to the plan will not, individually or
cumulatively with other amendments adopted pursuant to this subsection, increase the level of service
in the service area or cause a development fee increase…”.
