Development of a Fayetteville City Employees Wellness Program
Proposal
Submitted by
Barry Brown
TO: Dan Coody, Mayor
Steven Davis, CFO
We have successfully completed two years of a total Wellness Project with
the Fayetteville Fire Department. The Center for Wellness, a part of the
Human Performance Laboratory, housed in the HPER Building at the U of
A, has been actively involved in implementing lifestyle intervention
programs over the past 26 years. We have engaged over 10,000
individuals during this time period and have realized several major
outcomes. Significant improvement in overall fitness has been an
accomplished goal with all the resulting benefits that accrue from the
efforts of our team. This includes dramatic reductions in risk factors
associated with premature morbidity from chronic disease such as
cholesterol blood pressure, smoking, and nutritional changes. We are
currently about to begin a pilot program with the Fayetteville Public
School system choosing 50 participants from a pool of several hundred.
We continually strive to develop cost effective approaches to improve
health, reduce injury and disease and enhance performance. As a state
supported institution we can provide expertise, supervision and program
delivery with minimal cost. Leigh Jurney is in the final stages of
completing her Master's degree in Exercise Science, has worked with the
faculty of the Human Performance Lab, and serves as co- director of the
Fayetteville Firefighters Wellness Project. She will plan, develop and
initiate a model Wellness Program for Fayetteville City Employees over the
next 6-month period of time. Leigh administered a survey to Fayetteville
City Employees at a recent Health Fair (October, 2004). Preliminary data
from this question strongly suggests that there is a need and desire on the
part of city employees to participate in a total Wellness Program.
The City of Fayetteville agrees to provide support for a Graduate Assistant
over the next 6 months. This financial commitment would amount to
$10,000 and maybe renewed at the end of this time period. Leigh Jurney
The University of Arkansas is an equal opportunity/affirmative action institution.
0 0
will be filling this role and will be responsible for completing the following
tasks:
1) Conduct a "needs analysis" survey for all city employees to determine
needs and desires of potential participants
2) Submit a written report with recommendations based upon the survey
3) Develop a model plan that would involve a majority of city employees in
one of several options based upon results of the survey.
4) Supervise the City Gym during specified hours and provide individual
performance goals for program participants
5) Track progress through testing and evaluation of program participants
6) Submit a final written report at the end of the 6 month period itemizing
adherence rates, evaluation of changes in lifestyle habits, and
recommendations for further program development.
Testing equipment and facilities at the Human Performance Laboratory
will be made available to Leigh Jurney for purposes of evaluation and
tracking participants.

Izjasf J' &Cn Mrl '
TO: Mayor Dan Coody and Fayetteville City Council
FROM: Stephen Davis, Finance & Internal Services Director
DATE: December 2, 2004
SUBJECT: University of Arkansas Research
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to sign a Master
Contract with the Trustees of the University of Arkansas for services to be provided by the
University to the City.
This master contract sets forth the contractual agreements for the services requested by the City and
performed by the University. Each consulting agreement and/or study engagement will be
authorized on individual task orders. All task orders in excess of $20,000 will be submitted to City
Council for approval. Task orders $20,000 and under can be approved by the Mayor as long as the
adopted budget contains funding for the service.
Background
The City and University have enjoyed a long, cooperative history to accomplish task of benefit to the
each organization. A partial listing of joint efforts includes the development and use of the
Continuing Education Center, the joint funding of construction cost for Walton Arts Center,
cooperative efforts for economic development (Fayetteville Economic Development Council, Inc),
land leases allowing each organization to use land (Lewis Soccer Fields and city -owned land fronting
Razorback Road) belonging to the other entity, cost sharing for public transit, etc.
Discussion
The City has identified numerous technical areas that the University provides expertise in. These
services could be purchased from individual companies. However, obtaining this wide -spectrum of
services from a single organization other than the University is extremely unlikely. Staff has
developed a listing of services the University has provided or is planned to provide the City from
2003 through 2006. The cumulative value of these services is in excess of $585,000.
JAMayor_Department Director\U of A Research Support and Sponsored Programs Master Contract.doc
Budget Impact
The services are included in the 2004 and/or 2005 Budget. Any project or work item not
currently identified in the 2005 Budget will be submitted for City Council approval if the total
task is in excess of $20,000.

METHODOLOGY
This study employs an Input-output approach to evaluate the economic impact of
projected capital improvements and spending on operations Drake Field, a general
aviation facility located in south Fayetteville, Arkansas. The study relies on estimating
multiplier impacts from the widely used input -out model, the IMPLAN model. The
IMPLAN is a regional impact model that enables the evaluation of the economic impact
of specific activities such as construction or operation of public works projects, as well as
retail, wholesale, manufacturing, and service sales within an economy. IMPLAN was
originally developed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service in cooperation
with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the U.S. Department of
Interior Bureau of Land Management, and the University of Minnesota to assist the
Forest Service in land and resource management planning.
The basic data sources for the current edition of IMPLAN and the model used in this
study are the Input -Output Accounts of the United States, developed by the U.S.
Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), and county income and
employment data published by BEA and the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The model
reflects 2001 industrial structure and technology, and 2001 prices (trade flows in the
model are expressed in 2001 dollars). However, results of this analysis were adjusted to
2004 prices. Also certain values of cost and spending in the model will depend upon data
supplied by administrators at Drake Field which are specific to operations and facilities
construction at Drake Field, while IMPLAN data is for a whole sector that includes
different types of activities.
The IMPLAN uses a 525-sector Input/Output model to measures the effects of three
types of impacts: direct, indirect, and induced. Direct impacts consist of employment and
purchases of goods and services in the region resulting from the activity being evaluated,
in this case, constructing and operating the general aviation facilities. Indirect (inter-
industry) impacts consist of goods and services purchased by the firms, which supply
inputs consumed in the direct activity. Induced impacts consist of increased household
purchases of goods and services in the region by employees of direct and indirect
employers. The model generates multipliers, which summarize the magnitude of the
indirect and induced effects generated by a given direct change (increase in sales), to
estimate changes in output, income, and employment. In other word, the multiplier is the
ratio of total impact to direct impact.
As an illustration of the concept of the multiplier, consider an increase in the production
of an automobile assembly plant in a certain region. Assume the plant is increasing its
production by a 1000 automobile per year, and hiring 50 new workers with a total payroll
of $0.8 million per year. These are the initial or direct impact on the region. Now, the
production of more automobiles requires more production on the part of the auto parts
and steel industries to meet the additional demand by the automobile assembly plant.
These two related industries would need to hire more workers, say 40 workers, with a
total pay roll of $0.4 million per year. The worker in the three industries will spend the
largest part of there payroll on purchases of goods and services, creating additional sales
revenues and profit (say $0.2 million) for sectors such as food stores, hospitals and
doctors,... etc. Those sectors would need to hire more workers (say 20) to meet the higher
demand on their products. Assuming, for simplicity, those are the only rounds of
spending in the region, the initial employment in the assembly plant, 50 workers, led to a
total employment of 90 workers in the whole region. The employment multiplier in this
case is 90/50 = 1.9. By the same token, a total income of $1.5 million resulted from the
initial payroll of $0.8 million by the assembly plant and the multiplier is 1.4/0.8 = 1.75
In the IMPLAN model, inter -industry relationships (use and make coefficients) are
quantified based on data on the production functions of the different industries in the
region. The IMPLAN model can be used to estimate multipliers based on those
coefficients in a specific region such as a county. In this study, the model will be applied
to Washington County and we will infer the impact on the City of Fayetteville. The
results reflect the impact of the construction and operating activities at Drake Field. Any
leakage of spending to out -of -local area is already considered by the IMPLAN model and
is excluded from the total impact.

SUBJECT: Approval of a Contract with the University of Arkansas to Continue the
Development and Administration of a Wellness Program
Recommendation
Approval of the attached contract will provide for the continuation of the City's employee
wellness program.
Background/Discussion
This wellness program has been well received by employees and our momentum will continue
to build if we are able to sustain this program, the involvement of participating employees and
bring new participants into the program. Approval of this contract will enable the City to assist
and support employees in their efforts to achieve a healthier lifestyle.
Goals for the program in 2006 include continuing to provide personal training for those
employees who have remained committed to the program and reconnecting with those
participants who need additional support to continue working the program. The City will also
explore the idea of an Employee Wellness Committee to bolster the program and provide an
avenue for creative in-house support of the City's wellness efforts.
A wellness program is one of many strategies that organizations utilize to help control ever
increasing healthcare costs. This preventive program, as well as innovative benefit design
concepts, will assist the City in proactive efforts to minimize healthcare costs.
According to "Healthy Workforce 2010" a federally sponsored publication designed to assist
employers in wellness initiatives, there are several reasons why employers should invest in
wellness programs. Some of these are listed below.
1. Improve productivity
2. Reduce employee health risks
3. Reduce absenteeism
4. Reduce health care costs
5. Help the nation achieve its health objectives for the year 2010
Budget Impact
This item is budgeted within Contract Services for 2006.

Needs Analysis Survey
Analysis & Recommendations
submitted by
Barry Brown
A Needs Analysis survey was administered through the Department of
Human Resources of the City of Fayetteville the last two weeks of
February, 2005. One hundred fifty nine surveys were returned
represented more than a 50% rate. This compares to an average 30%
return rate of surveys nationwide and is considered a valid representation
of Fayetteville City Employees. The tabulated results of the survey are
appended. This document represents a written summary of the results
with accompanying recommendations to the Department of Human
Resources, Mayor and City Council of Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Almost 50% of respondents categorize themselves as being in good or
excellent health, and only 15% as being in fair or poor health. The plurality
of respondents assign themselves the average category for physical
fitness (40%), and 51 % believe themselves to be in fair or good condition.
Conforming to state and national norms, over 115th claim they do no
exercise, almost 40% claim to exercise 1-2 times, 27% 3-4 times, and 23%
5 or more times per week. More than 98% either agree or strongly agree
that they need to be more physically fit. Exercising with others was
important for 50%, 36% had no opinion, and 12% disagreed. Almost 8)%
agreed that that would like a personal trainer, 16% were neutral and 4%
disagreed. The respondents were equally split in their opinion of the need
for goal setting (agree vs. neutral), but only 13% disagreed that it was
important. Over 80% agreed that period testing was important with 3%
disagreeing.
Most people prefer to exercise in the evening (65%), with the remainder
equally split between morning and afternoon. The majority prefer to
exercise during weekdays (65%) vs. no preferences (35%) and only 9%
prefer weekends. There were several preferences for location of a fitness
facility. More than 35% expressed a preference for a new facility to be
incorporated with the newly acquired Mexican Original Plant, 55% percent
preferred the City Gym, 13% preferred to exercise at home, 20% preferred
the Boys and Girls Club, 15% preferred FAC, 5% preferred the HPER
Fitness Center, and 3% preferred Gold's Gym. Respondents were allowed
to check off several locations for their desired location and the type of
exercise they preferred resulting percentages exceeding 100. The most
popular fitness activities expressed included weight training (134),
treadmill (75), Biking (60), jogging (49), aerobics (44), swimming (42)
elliptical (44) and racquetball (29).
Educational topics for seminars, discussion and workshops were ranked
according to degree of interest. The table below, summary the degree of
interest based upon the number respondent to each topic.

More than 50 additional suggestions were provided for Educational Topics
and Personal Goals. The plurality of suggestions were concerned with
some aspects of weight loss, eating habits, nutrition, muscle toning and
specific risk factors (cholesterol) and diseases (diabetes). A complete
categorization is appended.
Based upon input from the city employees, the following
recommendations appear prudent and worthy of incorporation within the
wellness programs. In some cases, this may require approval for
additional funding.
Recommendations
Based upon analysis of data from the Needs Analysis survey, the following
recommendations are presented:
✓ A knowledgeable and certified exercise technician be hired to
conduct both the testing protocol and exercise programming. This
can be accomplished in the most cost effective manner by
contracting with the University of Arkansas. A Graduate Assistant
can be hired on a yearly basis @ $18,000 to serve as personal
trainer, Wellness Director, and supervisor of interns provided by the
U of A HKRD Dept.
✓ With fewer than 50% of the respondents indicating that they
exercise more than 1-2 times per week, it is important to establish a
model that encourages and rewards those who adopt a healthier
lifestyle. Simple monthly plaques, notices in newsletters, publicity
in media, and verbal encouragement by supervisors can provide
important motivation. Various "fitness challenges" can be put into
place, especially in terms of tracking both supervised and
unsupervised activity through a simple Calorie counting system.
Several free systems are available on the net
(http://www.primusweb.com/cai-bin/fr>c/actcaic.pl
http://vanderbiltowc.welIsource.com/dh/content.asp?ID=248)
In addition, each employee can complete a Health Risk Appraisal
(HRA) to look at risk factors and lifestyle habits that they can change
which will add years to their life. Again, there are several key HRAs
on the net that can be used (www.realacle.com)
✓ An overwhelming majority of respondents desire to become more
physically fit. The interest appears to be at a peak and needs to be
encouraged by the city administration. Many studies have shown
that employer support of fitness programs is the mainstay of a
health promotion program and greatly enhances morale and in the
long run can reduce health costs associates with cardiometabolic
disease (e.g., health disease, diabetes, obesity, hypertension and
cancer). There are several ways to encourage participation in a
fitness program. Based upon input from this needs analysis survey,
it is recommended that:
1) a periodic testing program be instituted that would include the
four components of fitness (cardiovascular, muscle strength,
flexibility and body composition). This serves not only as a
motivating tool, but creates a starting point to establish an exercise
2) As participation increases, it will be necessary to hire more than
one person to serve as personal of trainer and Director of Wellenss.
A training workshop can be conducted by the faculty and staff at the
U of A, similar to the one organized for the Fayetteville Fire
Department in February, 2005. It will require some release time of
6-10 personnel currently employed by the city. The workshops can
be conducted one day per week for 2-3 months and will require
extensive training. The fee for the workshop should be paid by the
city administration rather than employees, since they will be
donating their time. Upon successful completion of the workshop (a
written and practical exam will be administered), some release time
(or other incentive) must be provided for employees. It may still be
desirable to hire at least "expert" to oversee and coordinate the
trainers and the program for a period of time. It should be noted
that a Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire and Medical
History (PAR-Q) form must be completed by any individual who
wishes to engage in a supervised exercise program (see attached).
This is needed to assess risk factors for heart and other chronic
diseases and is used as a screening tool to refer high risk
individuals to their personal physician for clearance. However, this
may not be necessary for those individuals who wish to exercise on
their own.prescription that is appropriate and meaningful for
participants.
✓ Weekday evenings appear to be the most desired time for exercise.
This would require release time for the "trainers" to oversee and
supervise employees. In the beginning, it may be more practical to
hire seasoned exercise technicians until in-house trainers can be
certified.
✓ The location of a central city facility appears to be an issue with a
significant number of respondents. The current City Gym is
inadequate to handle to number of respondents (and other city
employees who will eventually desire to begin a program). Both the
square footage and equipment is limited and inadequate to serve
the needs of the current respondents. It is strongly recommended
that the City provide a wellness facility incorporating both an area
for structured exercise as well as meeting rooms for educational
sessions (unless a separate area can be identified close to the
square that can accommodate 200 people). The size of the facility
at the Mexican Original plant can accommodate a fitness facility @
12,000-15,000 square feet. Activities that should be incorporated
within this facility include weight training, aerobics, and a selection
of cardiovascular equipment (treadmills, cycles, elliptical machines,
stair climbers and a multi -purpose room). A swimming pool can be
costly and although desirable takes up significant space.
Educational programs should be instituted in the following areas:
1) Nutrition and eating habits
2) Proper exercise and its role in preventing chronic disease
3) Stress management
4) Obesity management
5) Controlling blood pressure
Ownership of the program must be transferred ultimately to the city
employees and should never be used as a punitive measure for hiring
or firing. Friendly competitions and reward systems help to motivate
individuals to participate in a program, when it emphasizes
improvement rather than absolute goals or standards. There are many
creative ways to energize and motivate employees to participate, and
one of the best ways is to providef professional leadership on the front
end. This will incur some up front costs, but it truly a minimal
investment when one considers the long range benefits of health cost
reduction, improved morale, employee retention and the positive social
interaction that occurs when people are highly fit and healthy.

policy issues such as transportation, migration, health, environmental issues, education,
labor policies, taxation, revenue forecasting, and economic impact studies.
In addition, CBER staff partner with the University of Arkansas Community Design
Center (UACDC) to provide economic development services to communities throughout
Arkansas. For example, CBER staff members have worked on projects for Pea Ridge,
Brinkley, the Philander Smith neighborhood of Little Rock, Highfill, Bentonville, and El
Dorado, providing state-of-the-art economic analysis to fit the needs of each community.
The members of the CBER team are uniquely qualified to conduct an economic impact

METHODOLOGY
This study employs an Input-output approach to evaluate the economic impact of
projected capital improvements and spending on operations Drake Field, a general
aviation facility located in south Fayetteville, Arkansas. The study relies on estimating
multiplier impacts from the widely used input -out model, the IMPLAN model. The
IMPLAN is a regional impact model that enables the evaluation of the economic impact
of specific activities such as construction or operation of public works projects, as well as
retail, wholesale, manufacturing, and service sales within an economy. MIKAN was
originally developed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service in cooperation
with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the U.S. Department of
Interior Bureau of Land Management, and the University of Minnesota to assist the
Forest Service in land and resource management planning.
The basic data sources for the current edition of IMPLAN and the model used in this
study are the Input -Output Accounts of the United States, developed by the U.S.
Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), and county income and
employment data published by BEA and the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The model
reflects 2001 industrial structure and technology, and 2001 prices (trade flows in the
model are expressed in 2001 dollars). However, results of this analysis were adjusted to
2004 prices. Also certain values of cost and spending in the model will depend upon data
supplied by administrators at Drake Field which are specific to operations and facilities
construction at Drake Field, while IMPLAN data is for a whole sector that includes
different types of activities.
The IMPLAN uses a 525-sector Input/Output model to measures the effects of three
types of impacts: direct, indirect, and induced. Direct impacts consist of employment and
purchases of goods and services in the region resulting from the activity being evaluated,
in this case, constructing and operating the general aviation facilities. Indirect (inter-
industry) impacts consist of goods and services purchased by the firms, which supply
inputs consumed in the direct activity. Induced impacts consist of increased household
purchases of goods and services in the region by employees of direct and indirect
employers. The model generates multipliers, which summarize the magnitude of the
indirect and induced effects generated by a given direct change (increase in sales), to
estimate changes in output, income, and employment. In other word, the multiplier is the
ratio of total impact to direct impact.
As an illustration of the concept of the multiplier, consider an increase in the production
of an automobile assembly plant in a certain region. Assume the plant is increasing its
production by a 1000 automobile per year, and hiring 50 new workers with a total payroll
of $0.8 million per year. These are the initial or direct impact on the region. Now, the
production of more automobiles requires more production on the part of the auto parts
and steel industries to meet the additional demand by the automobile assembly plant.
These two related industries would need to hire more workers, say 40 workers, with a
total pay roll of $0.4 million per year. The worker in the three industries will spend the
largest part of there payroll on purchases of goods and services, creating additional sales
revenues and profit (say $0.2 million) for sectors such as food stores, hospitals and
doctors,... etc. Those sectors would need to hire more workers (say 20) to meet the higher
demand on their products. Assuming, for simplicity, those are the only rounds of
spending in the region, the initial employment in the assembly plant, 50 workers, led to a
total employment of 90 workers in the whole region. The employment multiplier in this
case is 90/50 = 1.9. By the same token, a total income of $1.5 million resulted from the
initial payroll of $0.8 million by the assembly plant and the multiplier is 1.4/0.8 = 1.75
In the IMPLAN model, inter -industry relationships (use and make coefficients) are
quantified based on data on the production functions of the different industries in the
region. The IMPLAN model can be used to estimate multipliers based on those
coefficients in a specific region such as a county. In this study, the model will be applied
to Washington County and we will infer the impact on the City of Fayetteville. The
results reflect the impact of the construction and operating activities at Drake Field. Any
leakage of spending to out -of -local area is already considered by the IMPLAN model and
is excluded from the total impact.

DATE: June 24, 2005
SUBJECT: Approval of a Contract with the University of Arkansas to Continue the
Development and Administration of a Wellness Program
Recommendation
Approval of the attached contract will allow us to continue our employee wellness
program.
Background/Discussion
One hundred sixty-five employees indicated interest in participating in our program in
the spring; fifty employees were chosen to participate in the first phase of the program.
Under this contract we will be able to provide services to twenty additional individuals.
As health care costs continue to rise many private and public sector employers have
implemented wellness programs as part of a comprehensive approach to reduce and
manage health care costs. "Healthy People 2010" the prevention agenda for the United
States includes two major workplace objectives. One is for most employers to offer a
comprehensive employee health promotion program and the second is to attain a
participation rate of 75% in the program.
According to "Healthy Workforce 2010" a publication designed to assist employers in
achieving these objectives, there are several reasons why employers should invest in
wellness programs. Some of these are listed below.
1. Improve productivity
2. Reduce employee health risks
3. Reduce absenteeism
4. Reduce health care costs
5. Help the nation achieve its health objectives for the year 2010
This wellness program has been well received by the employees and our momentum
will continue to build if we are able to expand our program to other interested
employees. Approval of this contract will enable the City to assist and support
employees in their efforts to achieve a healthier lifestyle.
Budget Impact
The funding for this expenditure is from workers' compensation insurance premium
saving.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Sales Tax Allocation Proposal
The Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) will perform an analysis of
sales taxes paid in the City of Fayetteville by residents from the communities of Elkins,
Farmington, Greenland, and Goshen using the results of the 2004 Sales Tax Study as the
basis for allocating revenues. The final report will include an estimate of the actual dollar
value of City of Fayetteville sales taxes paid by residents of these communities in 2004.
These values will be broken down by the 1 percent general use sales tax and the 0.75
percent water/sewer improvement sales tax.
This study will be performed during the time period of July 1 to July 31, 2005 with
preliminary results delivered to City of Fayetteville staff no later than June 12, 2005. The
scope of work includes delivery of a final report and presentations of the results by
CBER researchers to City administration, council members, or the public at large. The
budget for this project follows:

DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE
TO: Dan Coody, Mayor
FROM: Stephen Davis, FIS Directop
DATE: June 8, 2005
SUBJECT: Task Order Approval - University of Arkansas Research Support and
Sponsored Programs
Recommendation:
Approval of the attached task orders for financial feasibility studies in support of the Highway 71
East Square Redevelopment District Number 1, the Downtown Master Plan TIF District and the I-
540 TIF District.
Background/Discussion:
During late 2004 and early 2005 the City actively pursued establishing tax increment financing (TIF)
districts to aid in redevelopment of blighted areas and to fund very critical infrastructure projects
within the City.
As part of analyzing TIF districts financial feasibility studies were conducted by the University of
Arkansas at the request of the City. City Council approved a Master Contract with the University to
enable the City to utilize University expertise for various City needs. This contract was approved in
December 2004.
The task orders will enable the City to pay the University for the services rendered under the contract
and in support of the TIF analysis.
Budget Impact
The task orders are funded in either the Sales Tax Capital Improvement Fund (Downtown Master
Plan and I-540) or the TIF Capital Improvement Fund (Highway 71 East Square Redevelopment
District Number 1).

Project Title: Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Financial Analysis
Project Description:
The City is actively
pursuing TIF projects and needs defined parameters
addressed as part of the
TIF financial
analyses.
These parameters include the following:
These items need to be completed on all previous TIF financial analyses.
1) prediction of how the property values will change within the TIF District absent any infrastructure
improvement.
2) prediction of how the property values will change within the TIF District after infrastructure
improvement.
3) Stratification of existing property uses and a prediction of future utilization.
4) Prediction of how each property use will perform over the proposed life of the TIF District.
5) Probability assessment of the predicted outcome.
6) Predicted impact of TIF District on employment, other tax revenue (sales tax, income tax, etc).
7) Discussion of the rationale for selecting the outcome predicted.
8) Assessment of how property values have performed over the previous 3 to 5 year period.
9) Discussion of how the TIF future performance varies from the overall City real property value performance.

Scope of Work
The purpose of the proposed study is to estimate the series of cash flows that will accrue to the
Fayetteville Downtown Master Plan Tax Increment Financing District (FDMPD) in Fayetteville,
Arkansas as a result of a tax increment financing project. The FDMPD encompasses 672 parcels
in the central part of Fayetteville. Tax increment financing (TIF) was chosen as the appropriate
tool for the privateJpublic partnership that will aid in the implementation of the Fayetteville
Downtown Master Plan.
Method -
Researchers at the Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) in the Sam M. Walton
College of Business at the University of Arkansas intend to project the revenues that tax
increment financing will provide for the FDMPD. The methodology to be employed is as
follows. First, obtain a copy of the property ownership report for the FDMPD from City of
Fayetteville staff. This report should include the identification of and 2004 assessed valuation
numbers for the 672 parcels included in the FDMPD. Supplementing this information, CBER
researchers will obtain the 2001-2003 assessment values for the same 672 parcels from the
Washington County Assessor's online property search database. CBER researchers will then
gather historical data on assessment value growth rates in other parts of Fayetteville for
comparison purposes.
Based on all of the previous information, CBER researchers will develop a plausible scenario for
revenues in the FDMPD. Finally, C13ER researchers will be available to city administrators or to
comment at city council meetings should the need arise.
Timeline-
CBER staff will complete tasks as necessary and as directed by City staff. The work will be
completed from January 1, 2005 to June 30, 2005. Please direct any questions regarding the
timeline to Kathy Deck at 479-575-4927.

Project Title: An Economic Forecast of Assessed Values in the Highway 71 East Square
Redevelopment District
Project Description(Attach additional pages as necessary):
The purpose of the proposed study is to estimate the series of cash flows that will accrue to the
East Square Redevelopment Tax District (ESRD) in Fayetteville, Arkansas as a result of the tax
increment financing project that has the redevelopment of the Mountain Inn as a centerpiece.
The ESRD encompasses 331 parcels in the central part of Fayetteville, running along US
Highway 71 B from Maple Street to south of the Mill District. The ESRD centers on the
Fayetteville Square, the Mountain Inn, and the Old Courthouse. The renovation of the Mountain
Inn spurred the formation of the ESRD, as private developers would not attempt the project
without economic incentives, and the redevelopment is seen as key to improving local property
values. Tax increment financing (TIF) was chosen as the appropriate tool for this private/public
partnership.

Scope of Work
The purpose of the proposed study is to estimate the series of cash flows that will accrue to the

The ESRD encompasses 331 parcels in the central part of Fayetteville, running along US

Method -
Researchers at the Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) in the Sam M. Walton
College of Business at the University of Arkansas intend to project the revenues that tax
increment financing will provide for the ESRD. The methodology to be employed is as follows.
First, obtain a copy of the property ownership report for the East Square Redevelopment District
from City of Fayetteville staff. This report should include the parcel identification numbers
included in the East Square Redevelopment District. Supplementing this information, CBER
researchers will obtain the 2001 through 2004 assessment values for the same parcels from the
Washington County Assessor's online property search database. CBER researchers will then
gather historical data on assessment value growth rates in other parts of Fayetteville for
comparison purposes. The TIF districts in Tulsa, Oklahoma will be examined to establish to
assist in the determination of reasonable expectations for growth rates.
Finally, in order to form a basis of comparison, the parcels that have addresses along Dickson
Street in Fayetteville will be examined. A substantial amount of private and public investment
has gone into the redevelopment of Dickson Street in recent years and examining recent annual
assessment increases might provide a fair indication of what assessment values might do in the
ESRD after investments have been made.
Based on all of the previous information, CBER researchers will develop three plausible
scenarios for revenues in the ESRD. The scenarios will present a range of revenue outcomes
from the TIF district which would be available for infrastructure and redevelopment efforts.
Finally, CBER researchers will be available to city administrators or to comment at city council
meetings should the need arise.
Timeline-
CBER staff will complete tasks as necessary and as directed by City staff. The work will be
completed from November 1, 2004 to June 30, 2005. Please direct any questions regarding the
timeline to Kathy Deck at 479-5754927.

Scope of Work
The purpose of the proposed study is to estimate the series of cash flows that will accrue to the I-
540 Tax Increment Financing District in Fayetteville, Arkansas as a result of a tax increment
financing project. The I-540 district encompasses 512 parcels in the north part of Fayetteville.
Tax increment financing (TIF) was chosen as the appropriate tool for the private/public
partnership that will aid in the infrastructure financing in the area.
Method -
Researchers at the Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) in the Sam M. Walton
College of Business at the University of Arkansas intend to project the revenues that tax
increment financing will provide for the I-540 District. The methodology to be employed is as
follows. First, obtain a copy of the property ownership report for the I-540 District from City of
Fayetteville staff. This report should include the identification of and 2004 assessed valuation
numbers for the 512 parcels included in the I-540 District. Supplementing this information,
CBER researchers will obtain the 2001-2003 assessment values for the same 512 parcels from
the Washington County Assessor's online property search database. CBER researchers will then
gather historical data on assessment value growth rates in other parts of Fayetteville for
comparison purposes.
Based on all of the previous information, CBER researchers will develop a plausible scenario for
revenues in the I-540 District. Finally, CBER researchers will be available to city administrators
or to comment at city council meetings should the need arise.
Timellne-
CBER staff will complete tasks as necessary and as directed by City staff. The work will be
completed from November 1, 2004 to June 30, 2005. Please direct any questions regarding the
timeline to Kathy Deck at 479-575-4927.

SUBJECT: Approval of a Contract with the University of Arkansas to Continue the
Development and Administration of a Wellness Program
Recommendation
Approval of the attached contract will provide for the continuation of the City's employee
wellness program as provided through partnering with the University of Arkansas.
Background/Discussion
Goals for the program during this contract period include continuing to provide personal training
for employees who have remained committed to the program, reconnecting with prior
participants to encourage them to become active again and recruiting new participants. The
City will also work with the newly selected benefits broker, Stephens, Inc. to broaden the scope
of the City's wellness efforts to reach more employees.
A wellness program is one of many strategies that organizations utilize to help control ever
increasing healthcare costs. This preventive program, as well as innovative benefit design
concepts, will assist the City in proactive efforts to minimize healthcare costs.
According to "Healthy Workforce 2010" a federally sponsored publication designed to assist
employers in wellness initiatives, there are several reasons why employers should invest in
wellness programs. Some of these are listed below.
1. Improve productivity
2. Reduce employee health risks
3. Reduce absenteeism
4. Reduce health care costs
5. Help the nation achieve its health objectives for the year 2010
Budget Impact
This item is budgeted within Contract Services for 2007.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO/STAFF CONTRACT REVIEW MEMO
TO: Mayor
THRU: StafF/Contract Review Committee
FROM: Ray M. Boudreaux, Director, Aviation and EcorDevelopment
DATE: December 4, 2007 l
SUBJECT: Approval of Task Order with the U of A Center for Business and
Economic Research for Economic Data and Data Analysis from
January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the attached Task Order #2008-2 entitled "Task Order to Provide
Data and Data Analysis from January to December 2008" with the University of Arkansas Sam M.
Walton College of Business Center for Business and Economic Research. The work will be supervised by
Katherine A. Deck.
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this contract is to provide a continuous stream of economic data
collected, updated and analyzed throughout the year on a consistent basis in order to have information
readily available for clients interested in locating business and industry in Fayetteville and investing in
our community. In the past information was provided in the form of an annual update to the City of
Fayetteville Community Profile. With the advent of the internet and web sites, much more
comprehensive data is required and expected when making presentation or when courting potential
investment in the community whether the client is representing him or herself or being represented by a
site selection team. Comprehensive data collection requires unique knowledge of the community and a
team of skilled data collection specialists able to amass the information and fairly and accurately
analyze the information into useful data for the City Economic Development Team.
DISCUSSION: The City is a full partner in the Economic Development Team of the community and
has two positions on the Board of the Fayetteville Economic Development Council (FEDC). The
Chamber of Commerce, the University of Arkansas and the City of Fayetteville are represented by the
FEDC for economic development purposes. The FEDC is funded totally through membership
contributions from business and industry in Fayetteville. The City contribution is limited to data such
as that provided by this study. The data will be directly updated on the City of Fayetteville Web Site
and the FEDC Web Site and available to all City departments and divisions and the public. The data
gathered will be of use to the Budget and Finance divisions of the City as well as for economic
development purposes. The Task Order provides for special project expenditures as needed. The City of
Fayetteville Aviation and Economic Development Department will be responsible to monitor and
authorize expenditures under this contract.
BUDGET RAPACM This project will be funded from the Economic Development Match Fund.

Task Order: City of Fayetteville
To Provide Data and Data Analysis from
January to December 2008
August 28, 2007
The Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) will provide to the City of
Fayetteville a monthly economic data update. The following list shows the type of data
that will be provided to the city by the CBER on a periodic/regular basis (i.e. subject to
data availability and the frequency of updates by statistical agencies).
• Data Support- including the following elements subject to availability
o Demographic information
o Socio-economic data
• Income
• Educational attainment
o Labor force
• Employment by industry
o Primary employers by sector
o Newly located companies by sector
o Research and development activity
o Higher education institutions
• University of Arkansas
• Enrollment
• Bachelor's degrees conferred in technical degree
programs annually
• Master's degrees conferred in technical degree programs
annually
• Doctorate degrees conferred in technical degree programs
annually
• Professional degrees conferred (J.D., MBA, etc.) annually
• Community colleges (NWACC/ North Ark)
• Enrollment
• Degrees conferred annually
• Technical and vocational schools
• Enrollment
• Certificates and degrees conferred annually
o Labor costs
o Average salary by occupational classification
o Worker's compensation and unemployment insurance costs
o Unionization of existing workforce
o Transportation and related infrastructure
o Taxation
8/28/2007 I
o Utilities
o Housing
These data elements would form the primary basis for the contract. The deliverables
related to these efforts are:
• Timely collection of the above data elements based on most recent available data.
• Collection and organization of data into database.
• Website support through existing web provider to maintain public availability of
data.
• Monthly electronic publication with selected data highlights.
In addition to providing data it is anticipated that CBER researchers will from time to
time be called on to provide an analysis of existing or proposed economic events. For
example, the CBER may be called on to examine the economic implications of a new
development prospect to the city, or a proposed city ordinance regarding land use or
some other policy. This undertaking requires not only the collection of the appropriate
data but also the utilization of that data to determine the potential effects of a proposed
policy change on the economy and more importantly the fiscal well-being of the City of
Fayetteville.
What makes the CBER unique amongst providers of this type of work is both our
knowledge base of the community, as well as our reputation with various stakeholder
groups. This implies that analysis done by the CBER is likely to carry more weight with
policy makers and the public. It is anticipated that this type of analysis will be secondary
and required on an intermittent basis. The deliverables are:
• Fiscal impact reports related to specific economic development prospects, policy
decisions, etc. proposed or undertaken by the City of Fayetteville.
• Economic impact analysis of economic development prospects.
Finally, the CBER has distinct expertise in representing data or the relationships between
data elements graphically. Part of the service we envision being demanded by the city is
graphical support including assistance with PowerPoint presentations. This is expected to
require a relatively small effort as opposed to the other sets of deliverables. It is
important to note that the data collection and web support part of this task order are
readily predictable in terms of effort and therefore hours required, the last two parts are
not so easily predictable.
To conclude, the CBER will provide data gathering and web support, fiscal and economic
impact analysis as needed, and graphical representation services as needed to the city.
This is a fixed price contract up to the point that the allotted contract hours are exhausted
after which, any analysis would be done on a project by project basis with CBER
submitting separate task orders for each.

Task Order: City of Fayetteville
To Provide Sales and Property Tax Projections
December 12, 2007
The Center for Business and Economic Research (Center) will provide to the City of
Fayetteville a set of projections for sales taxes and property values from 2008 to 2017.
To accomplish this goal, the following tasks will be necessary
Task One: Project sales taxes for the cities of Fayetteville, Springdale, Bentonville,
i and Rogers.
Retail sales will be projected for the cities using a model based on past retail sales,
population growth, historical shares of regional sales, and income growth. The estimates,
along with standard errors, will be provided in order to provide a confidence interval for
the projections. The methodology and caveats used will be fully described within the
chapter containing the estimates. Estimated sales tax, using existing sales tax rates, for
each year from 2008 to 2017 will be provided in a table.
Task Two: Project sales taxes for Washington County.
Retail sales will be projected for the county using a model based on past retail sales,
population growth, historical shares of regional sales, and income growth. The estimates,
along with standard errors, will be provided in order to provide a confidence interval for
the projections. The methodology and caveats used will be fully described within the
chapter containing the estimates. Estimated sales tax, using existing sales tax rates, for
each year from 2008 to 2017 will be provided in a table. The portion of Washington
County sales taxes that the City of Fayetteville would receive will be presented in a
separate table.
Task Three: Project property taxes for the city of Fayetteville.
Assessed property values will be projected for parcels contained within the city of
Fayetteville (those parcels beginning with either a 765 or 348). The model that will be
used will include building permits and changes in average sales prices and will take into
account the annual caps on increases in assessed property values that the state imposes.
Using the existing millage rate, estimated property taxes for the city of Fayetteville for
the years 2008 to 2017 will be provided in a table.
Timeline:
The contract period will be from December 2007 through January 2008. The city
estimates will be delivered by December 22, 2007, and the county estimates will be
delivered by January 11, 2008.
Budget:
The following budget represents research time and overhead charges.
