Background:
On August 25, 2025, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Harris & Associates, Inc. to provide independent Fiscal Impact Analysis peer review services. The agreement was established to assist the City in evaluating fiscal studies prepared for annexation applications and other major development proposals requiring analysis of long-term municipal revenues and expenditures.
The City's General Plan requires Fiscal Impact Analyses for certain development projects to ensure that new development adequately contributes toward the cost of municipal services and does not adversely impact the City's fiscal condition. Independent peer review of these analyses provides the City with additional technical expertise and ensures that fiscal assumptions, methodologies, and conclusions are reasonable and consistent with accepted industry practices.
