D.The city council shall have the discretion to approve rules or procedures concerning the use and loss of growth management approval which vary from subsections A, B,or C of this section if it occurs as part of a project developer's development agreement or other legislative act and as long as the overall number of allowed permits does not exceed the limits established in Section 17.36.060 of this chapter. (Ord. 2000 § 1, 2009; Ord. 1729 § 2, 1997) 17.36.100 Modification to projects with growth management approval. A.Once an affordable housing project or a major project has secured an affordable housing or a growth management agreement,the project may be modified without affecting its growth management approval, subject to city council review and approval, so long as no additional units are added. Such a modified project retains its original growth management allocation. Project modifications as used in this section shall mean significant changes to a project's design, density, product type, affordability component, amenities, and other aspects which bear on its original approval. Architectural modifications, site plan changes, and other project adjustments which are characterized as"minor modifications" in the city's PUD ordinance shall not need city council review and approval to retain growth management approval. Should the modification reduce the number of units, the units eliminated shall be deducted from the project's final year's allocation. B.For first-come, first-served projects which have been issued a building permit for a residential unit, modifications to the unit shall be allowed without affecting the permit's growth management entitlement when such modifications are allowed by the Uniform Building Code to be made without requiring the issuance of a new building permit. In the event the modifications require issuance of a new building permit, the new building permit shall be subject to the rules for any developer seeking a building permit for a new unit at that time. (Ord. 1729 § 2, 1997) 17.36.110 Fees and exactions. A.A project developer will pay normal city development fees in effect at the time building permits are issued or at the time otherwise provided by the city ordinances or resolutions, or by agreement. B.A project developer shall pay a growth management fee in conjunction with the issuance of a building permit. Growth management fees shall be placed in a special fund applied to public projects made necessary by the cumulative effects of ongoing residential development. C.The city council may approve an increase or decrease in the growth management fees or permit a developer to provide finished public works in lieu of paying growth management or other city fees in order to achieve the purposes of this chapter and the general plan. The fee or public work may be implemented by resolution or by agreement with the developer. (Ord. 1729 § 2, 1997)
