MEMORANDUM
TO: Meridian Development Corporation
FROM: Maria Weeg & Ben Patinkin, Hilltop Public Solutions
RF_- Scope of Work
For over a year the City of Meridian has been engaged in an in-depth analysis and creation of an
economic development strategy to address the increasing need to provide additlonai meeting space,
civic space and an economic anchor for Meridian's downtown corridor.
The time Is ripe for Meridian to act The launch of New Ventures Lab will draw entrepreneurs to
downtown Meridian and the move by the Boise Centre to add additional space and market to larger
conventions opens up the opportunity for Meridian to host the smaller, regional conferences that
have been the hallmark of the Boise Centre. The City of Meridian currently has before it several
exciting proposals for catalyst projects — a convention center and anchor hotel and a new performing
arts center — that can anchor Meridian's downtown and provide a center to the growing community.
Necessary to do that is the creation of two special districts that can provide the revenue stream to
support the development The City of Meridian will need to create an Auditorium District and a
Community infrastructure District and then go back to voters and ask them to approve a general
obligation bond to begin development
At Hilltop, we specialize in engaging community members in direct ways to amplify support for public
policy initiatives and deliver the votes necessary to move projects forward. We have passed library
bonds, increased funding for public safety, passed mill levies to build new schools, and most recently
delivered a stunning 76.3% of the vote for the Boise Fire nand. We win elections by engaging the
community directly and using cutting edge electoral techniques to target the voters we need.
We understand the complexity of the project you are about to undertake — the districts are created
through different mechanisms and the timeline (not to mention the Mayor's important re-election this
NJ) need to be considered carefully and planned accordingly. To begin, it is critical to undertake the
research necessary to understand the appetite Meridian residents have for the project, and their
willingness to participate in funding it.
We bring to the table extensive experience in all facets of the research process; from qualitative and
quantitative research design and data analysis, to weh-tesdng ads, to weighing in on IVR studies and
micro targeting, we've done it all.

Scope of Wort:
Phase I: understanding the playing field
Before we begin our research, we want to take the time to truly understand your project background
and goals. To do thls, we'll need all the information you have available: news clips, past literature,
research, etc.
Once we've digested these data, we will meet with your team to dig deeper. We want to unearth all
the hypotheses, themes, priorities, recommendations, and pitfalls that we expect to encounter. This
ensures that we've literally covered all of our bases and have left no stone unturned as we begin the
research process.
Some of the questions we'd seek to answer through (but are not limited to):
• How do respondents feel the economy, in the City of Meridian is doing?
• How do respondents perceive their current access to performing arts and meeting spaces?
• How do respondents feel the City is doing In terms of its delivery of services and spending of
tax dollars?
• How do respondents feel about creating new tax districts?
• Do they see any real urgency or need for this project? If not, how do we best communicate
the need?
• What bond components garner the most support and which ones should be kept off the
table?
• Are voters sensitive to price?
• How do voters react to an Initial question and title?
• Which respondents represent our target audience (those we most need to contacdeducate)?
Phase 2: One 10 to 12 minute survey among 400 to 500 likely voters
We propose conducting an initial survey between 10 to 12 minutes long among n=400 likely
November 201b voters in the City of Meridian. Knowing we may not choose to appear on the ballot
in the November general election, we would recommend including an oversample of n=100 additional
voters that fit into a potentially different electorate. This survey will ascertain support and opposition
to the two proposed tax districts, and will also include testing of the potential bond components, We
may also be able to test some landscape questions to assess perceived need and Impressions of the
project
The survey questionnaire will be developed with the full collaboration of your team and will be
subject to intense debate and review. By the time we reach a finalized survey draft:, every member of
your team should understand how and why questions are asked a certain way. In the usual scenario,
several drafts are produced and no survey is ever fielded until the client Is satisfied with the product
That said, we are prepared to move at whatever pace best suits the needs of this campaign.
We know how to ask the right questions to get the right answers that help position your campaign
for success. For example, we typically ask a number of similar questions to help triangulate in on one
@ 2012 Hilltop Public Solutions I All Rights Reserved I Proprietary and Confidential
Professional Services Agreement — Polling Hilltop Public Solutions Page 9
I
set of findings, using a combination of direct questioning and analytical techniques to tease out
respondents' opinions, their priorities, and values to help develop a communications frame that is
most likely to resonate with them.
In addition, we'll rely on spat sample simulations where we divide the survey universe in half at
random and then ask similar, yet slightly differently worded questions, Because the only difference in
the questions is the Information provided, we can then determine what word, value or data point is
most likely to resonate with our target audience.
Demographic questions will be asked to determine how different population subgroups respond to
the issues at hand. These questions include, but are not limited to things like education, age, party
Identification and gender. We'll also want to delve into cermin lifestyle and personal habits such as
parental status and homeownership, as well as geographic location.
We will be available to discuss preliminary findings with your team when the survey exits the field.
Topline results are available within 24 hours and cross -tabulated data is available within 48 hours,
Once you receive these, we'll get to work on the final presentation. Our final strategic analysis takes
the form of a comprehensive PowerPoint report, incorporating topline data, crosstabular and
multivariate analysis as well as strategic recommendations, The analysis is usually delivered two
weeks after the completion of the survey.
Budget
We've outlined below costs for this research project Please note that prices include everything
except travel, which is billed at cost We require 75% of the cost of survey research before we enter
the field. The remainder is due upon completion of our strategic analysis.
