What Departments/facilities chould be subject to the asses~ment~ There aze three (3) categories of department facilities identified in the rent scenazios provide in the reports given to the finance committee.

What are the assessment ontions to create the building reserve fund~ For the purpose of this study, it has been assumed that some form of special rent assessment will be used to support the building reserve fund. Several different rent scenazios were handed out at the finance committee (See addendum). The subcommittee is reviewing a second option which includes a review of new revenue sources, other than rent, that could be used to build a reserve fund. How would the fund be mana~ed and how allocations be made~ It is staff's recommendation that a special committee be assigned tl~e responsibility to oversee the use of the fund as well as the annual assessment fee. 6. Should all facility rents be e~ualized or otherwise adjusted to snread the cost of facilit.y rent more equally between higher vs lower cost buildings~ The best example of inequities in rent would be realized if we compaze Courthouse Squaze vs the Conections Campus buildings. An analysis of this issue has not been done but, our rent scenarios do give an indication of how vazious funds/depts would be impacted if rent were equalized (see ex. C, D, &E). While tlus question was not part of the original question, it is a topic for discussion which will be addressed in the budget process this yeaz.
