FR: Don Thumith, Facilities Operations
Supervisor
RE: Update Civic Center Phase 11 Project
Purpose
A review of activities pertaining to the Civic Center Phase 11 project to this date.
Project
This project was initiated to help resolve the short and long term operational costs for a
Municipal facility, costs that are presently putting a strain on our general fund recovery
efforts. The Civic Center Phase 11 project will greatly reduce operational expenditures,
achieve Town ownership, eliminate responsibility for property taxes and consolidate Town
services to a one site visit for our citizens and visitors.
Events
• 11/10/2003 Award of pre design contract to Kitchell CEM.
• 11/14/2003 Kick off meeting with department heads, Kitchell, Town Manager and
staff followed by initial input in space needs from each department/entities required
to develop a block plan and prepare budgeting considerations.
• 12/02/2003 Telephone conference with Kitchell staff, Town Manager and staff re:
needed adjustments in block plan.
• 12/04/2003 Meeting with Charles Davis, Town Manager and staff identifying results
to block plan, budgeting considerations and related concerns. Established date for
update to Council on project.
• 12/11/2003 Meeting with Charles Davis, Matt Chappell of Kitchell staff, Town
Manager, Town staff, revisit and review block plan.
Synopsis of events
At the November 101h 2003 regular meeting of the Town Council, Council awarded a
contract for pre design services from Kitchell CEM, the scope of work included the
preparation of a block diagram, budgeting and site considerations. This update will
identify results to this point.
(1)
`„ On November 14th, 2003 at Town Hall Bld. A conference room representatives of
Kitchell CEM interviewed Town staff, department by department, along with
representation from the Senior Activity Center staff. The purpose of these interviews
was to acquire information on present and future space needs in a new administrative
building. This information gathering process is vital in determining a block plan that
will fit requested needs with planned limitations in building square footage, currently at
30,000 S/F.
On December 2nd 2003 a telephone conferencing was conducted with Kitchell staff,
Town Manager and staff at Kitchells request. Of concern was the square footage
resulting from the interview process exceeded the identified square footage goal of
30,000 S/F by eight to twelve thousand square feet. Some very difficult decisions were
required of Town Manager and staff to re -identify the square footage needs; this was
accomplished with advice and input from Kitchell staff. Space reduction was then
accomplished in keeping with operational, staffing and future considerations as a
priority.
On December 4th, 2003 Town Manager and staff met with Charles Davis, project
manager for Kitchell to review the results of space re -alignment, the budgeting forms
process and established a date to update the Council, that being the December 18th 2003
regular meeting. At this meeting Town Manager re -directed staffs proposed location
from the East end of the vacant portion of the Civic Center to the West end. At this
,%W point Kitchells block plan was at 31,821 S/F with a request that if any more reduction
was identified to forward the information to Kitchell before their presentation to
Council on the 12/18/2003 regular Council meeting.
On December 11, 2003 Town Manager and staff met with Charles Davis and Matt
Chappell of Kitchell CEM. Details of the block plan, budgeting considerations, and site
details were discussed, decisions were made to refine the project to meet the Town goals
of an approximately 30,000 to 32,000 square feet facility. Certain details were discussed
in preparation for RFQ's for the Design Build phase.

Regular Agenda.Wordini: Consideration of approving United Healthcare as the Town's health care provider for
2004.
Staff Recommendation: Approve Fiscal Impact: Yes $22,685.40
Purpose of Item and Background Information: Blue Cross/Blue Shield is the current health care provider for
Town of Fountain Hills employees. Their renewal for 2004 was quoted at a 36% increase. The Town budgeted a
15% increase. Consequently Human Resources received quotes from other major health insurance carriers in
Arizona. It is being recommended that United Healthcare be the health care provider for 2004. They are able to
provide quality coverage with a more reasonable 8.5% increase over 2003 premium amounts.

OFFICE OF HUMAN RESOURCES
INTER OFFICE MEMO
TO: Honorable Mayor W. J. Nichols and
DT: December 10, 2003
Town Council
Tim Pickering, Town Manager
FR: Joan McIntosh
RE: 2004 Health Insurance
Human Resources Administrator
Recommendation
During 2003 the Town of Fountain Hills contracted with Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Arizona for
health insurance coverage. Each year at this time we receive a renewal quote for the upcoming
year. Blue Cross/Blue Shield has quoted a 36% rate increase for 2004 for the Town of Fountain
Hills. We were successful in negotiating down to a 30% rate increase. Although increases are
expected, this year's increase from Blue Cross/Blue Shield is unacceptable. The Town budgeted
a 15% rate increase. Consequently, quotes from every major health insurance carrier in Arizona
were obtained in an effort to maintain quality coverage with more reasonable premiums. The
various quotes were then taken to the Employee Services Committee for comparison. After
much discussion, it was the consensus of the Committee to recommend United Healthcare. The
Committee then took this information back to their individual departments for discussion. The
departments unanimously expressed their desire to contract with United Healthcare for 2004.
Human Resources met with Mr. Pickering to review the various options and to recommend
presentation of United Healthcare for approval by the Council at the December 18, 2003
meeting.
Some of the reasons for this recommended change in health care are the competitive rates, open
access to any physician at any time, a favorable formulary for prescription drugs, a supplemental
EPA (employee assistance program for legal and finance issues), and the availability of a 24-
hour nurses hotline.
Following is a table that itemizes the Town's annual cost, the employee's annual cost, and the
total cost for our current Blue Cross/Blue Shield Plan, the quoted renewal of Blue Cross/Blue
Shield and the recommended United Healthcare 007 Plan. As you can see, United Healthcare is
an 8.5% increase over our current rates, or a $22,685.40 annual impact to the Town.
