Title
Conduct a public hearing and consider an ordinance amending Chapter 7.5 of the City Code providing for the establishment of procedures for assessing and collecting impact fees, establishing provisions for credits against impact fees, providing an appeals procedure, adopting revised land use assumptions, adopting Capital Improvements Plans and impact fees for roadway, water and wastewater facilities.
Body
Updates to impact fee studies must be conducted every five years. In 2015, a study was completed for roadway, water and wastewater impact fees. In 2020, an update to the 2015 study was completed for roadway impact fees only. Now, the water and wastewater impact fee study is being updated. This update to the land use assumptions, Capital Improvements Program and fees will allow the City to continue to assess and collect impact fees. Although the proposed ordinance also includes roadway impact fees, no changes to the roadway impact fee study or roadway impact fees are included.
On September 12, 2022, the Capital Improvements Advisory Committee unanimously voted to recommend the proposed update to the Impact Fee ordinance.
Recommended/Desired Action
Following the public hearing, staff recommends approval of the ordinance.
