included and calculated based on an estimate of Kaiser's pro rata share of demand. As detailed in Table 6-D, it is estimated that Kaiser's share of annual debt service is approximately $44,000. The combined annual cost to the City is estimated to total $163,000 per year (Table 6D). Public Works Costs — The City's public works department will be responsible for maintaining new public improvements (street, street lights, and traffic signals) required for the Medical Center as well as existing infrastructure, parks, and public facilities that will also serve the new Medical Center. - New infrastructure. New street area, street lights, and traffic signals will be built as a result of the Medical Center. Maintenance costs for the new infrastructure have been estimated by the City's Engineering and Transportation Department to total $26,000 per year. (Tables 6E). Existing City-wide Infrastructure, Parks, and Facilities, excluding streets. The 2009/10 public works department budget of $3.5 million approximates $26.90 of variable costs per resident equivalent. The Medical Center's allocable share of the cost to maintain existing improvements has been calculated by applying the $26.90 cost factor to the Center's projected number of resident equivalents. Total allocable annual costs are estimated at $21,000. (Table 6-E). Existing Street Maintenance. The 2009/10 public works department budget for street maintenance totals approximately $3.47 million. In comparison, the cost to adequately maintain existing streets has been estimated by City staff at $7 million per year. Given that the City does not anticipate having $7 million of funding available for street maintenance, this fiscal analysis has used the current, albeit inadequate, budget as the basis for estimating Kaiser impacts. Based on a study of vehicle miles traveled, it is estimated that Phase 1 will generate approximately 3% of all vehicle miles traveled in the City of San Leandro. By applying this 3% factor to the City's current budget for street maintenance, Kaiser's impact on street maintenance costs is estimated to total approximately $75,200 per year. This is a conservative estimate as it reflects available funds rather than an adequate level of service. (Table 6-E). General Government, Community Development, Engineering and Transportation, and Organizational Services Costs — These departments serve the entire City and will be impacted by the Medical Center. For purposes of this analysis, the impacts on these department has been estimated based on the application of current budget resident equivalent cost factors to the Medical Center's projected resident equivalents. A portion of these departments' costs are fixed relative to population and have not been included in the calculation. (Table 6-A, 6-13). Keyser Marston Associates, Inc.
