"Estimated New Regional Revenues" ("ENR") are revenues projected to be received by the County specifically for support of Animal Services which result from regional marketing campaigns (thus excluding local licensing canvassing efforts pursuant to Section 7), and new foundation, grant, donation and entrepreneurial activities, except where revenues from these sources are designated for specific purposes within the Animal Services Program. Calculation and allocation of Estimated and Actual New Regional Revenues are further described in Exhibit C-4. For Service Year 2013, Estimated New Regional Revenues are assumed to be zero. If New Regional Revenues are received in 2013, they will be accounted for in the reconciliation of 2013 Payments. ENR excludes Designated Donations, Total Non -Licensing Revenue and Total Licensing Revenue. "Designated Donations" mean donations from individuals or other third parties to the County made for the purpose of supporting specific operations, programs or facilities within the Animal Services Program. "Licensing Revenue Support" means activities or funding to be undertaken in specific cities to enhance licensing revenues, per Section 7, Exhibit C-5 and Exhibit F. "Annual Budget Inflator Cap" means the maximum amount by which the Budgeted Total Allocable Costs may be increased from one Service Year to the next Service Year, and year to year, which is calculated as the rate of inflation (based on the annual change in the September CPI -U for the Seattle -Tacoma -Bremerton area over the rate the preceding year) plus the rate of population growth for the preceding year for the County (including the unincorporated area and all Contracting Cities), as identified by comparing the two most recently published July OFM city and county population reports. The cost allocations to individual services (e.g. Control Services, Shelter Services or Licensing Services) or specific items within those services may be increased or decreased from year to year in so long as the Budgeted Total Annual Allocable Costs do not exceed the Annual Budget Inflator Cap. "Service Year" is the calendar year in which Animal Services are/were provided. "Calculation Period" is the time period from which data is used to calculate the Estimated Payment. The Calculation Period differs by formula component and Service Year. Exhibit C-6 sets forth in table form the Calculation Periods for all formula factors for Service Years 2013, 2014 and 2015. "Population" with respect to any Contracting Party for Service Year 2013 means the population number derived from the State Office of Financial Management (OFM) most recent annually published report of population used for purposes of allocating state shared revenues in the subsequent calendar year (typically published by OFM each July, Document Dated 5-29-12 32
