Value Capture Techniques Summary

  • Developer Contributions - One-time charges collected by local governments from developers to offset the cost of infrastructure and services necessitated by new development.
  • Special Assessments - An additional fee or tax assessed on businesses or residents in specified geographic areas benefiting proximity to a highway or other transportation facility or corridor.
  • Fees - Similar to a utility fee, transportation fees are assessed based on how individual businesses and households use transportation facilities.
  • Incremental Growth - A mechanism allocating back to infrastructure from some specified portion of increased property tax revenues fostered by new infrastructure - often for a specified period of time.
  • * Joint Development - Sale or lease of land or air rights on or adjacent to transportation facilities. This can include donations of land or other in-kind resources from the private sector in ongoing commercial operations.
  • Concessions - Sale or lease of government owned assets - such as toll roads or bridges - to private-sector investors/operators.
  • Advertising and Naming Rights - Sale of advertising space or naming rights on a transportation facility. Note: Commercial uses within Interstate Highway System right of way, including rest areas, is prohibited by law; however, they may be allowed on toll facilities and in transit stations.

Joint Development Overview

Joint Development
  • Involves a partnership between a public entity and a private sector or other public entity to develop certain infrastructure assets
  • Generate revenue to reinvest in the transportation system or revitalize communities
  • Plays key role in some urban projects
  • Often practiced in transit agencies
Benefits
  • Generates long-term revenue streams to fund transportation improvements and/or reduces costs
  • Improve utilization of public assets (i.e. ROW)
  • Opportunities for public-private & Public-Public Partnerships
  • Economic development tool controlled by public sectors
  • Provide local benefits by increasing a jurisdiction's tax base and creating new jobs
  • Promote Economic/transportation-oriented development

Joint Development at Grade

Solar energy in the highway right of way
  • Uses existing public right-of-way for solar energy generation
  • Adds value to public right-of-way asset and revenue to Department of Transportation
  • Public-private partnerships can use tax benefits to deliver solar power at costs no greater than paid for electricity from the grid
  • Leverage underutilized land
Solar Deal Structures: Direct Procurement & Ownerships

Text for diagram

Flow chart of "Solar Deal Structures: Direct Procurement and Ownership"
The Solar Power System flows electricity into the State or Local infrastructure, who has purchased, built, operates and maintains the solar power system. Excess electricity is sent to the Power Grid who also then sells to the State or Local infrastructure with Net Metering Credit.
Solar Deal Structures: Public-Private Partnership

Text for diagram

Flow chart of "Solar Deal Structures: Direct Procurement and Ownership"
The Solar Power System flows electricity into the State or Local infrastructure. A Private Concessionaire takes Electricity Payment from the State or Local infrastructure, while making Land Lease Payments to the State or Local entities. The Private Concessionaire is in charge of Purchase, Build, Operate and Maintain of the Solar Power System. Excess electricity is sent to the Power Grid who also then sells to the State or Local infrastructure with Net Metering Credit.

Developer Role in Project Delivery

Public-Private Partnership Delivery

A performance based/ availability payment model is a form of public-private partnership where a private partner assumes the responsibility of Designing, Building, Financing, Operating and Maintaining a facility (DBFOM Contract) for a certain period of time and is compensated with a periodic Availability Payment.

General Characteristics
Description
Payments are not made by public authority until construction completion and facility is operational
If facility is not available or performance is poor, payments are deducted
Provides capital planning flexibility and certainty to public authority
Financing
Developers responsible for raising financing
Lenders provide financing against availability payment stream
Stronger credit for lenders resulting in more efficient pricing and terms
Public authority can provide construction subsidies
Maintenance
Promotes whole-life costing and innovation through integration of construction with long-term maintenance
Public authority will outline specific O&M performance requirements
Public authority can terminate contract if performance requirements are consistently not met

Traditional Procurement vs. Public-Private Partnership
Chart explaining the value for money analysis
Text for diagram

Traditional Procurement: Project Costs increase as you consider Capital Costs, Financing Costs, Operations & Maintenance Costs, Risks Retained by the Gov't

Performance Based Delivery (P3): Project Costs increase as you consider Capital Costs, Financing Costs, Operations and Maintenance Costs and Risks Retained by the Gov't. However, there are less Risks Retained by the Gov't, and that difference is the "Value for Money" amount.

Key Highlights
A P3 procurement ensures:
Risk transfer of not only design and construction but long-term operations and maintenance
Long-term budget certainty
Competitive tension which drives down costs
Private sector innovation which drives down costs
