Since the 1980s, the City established several development impact fees to mitigate the impact of new housing and commercial developments on the City's facilities, infrastructure, and available affordable housing. The City's development impact fees were established pursuant to AB 1600. These fees were last restructured in 1998. City staff worked with Economic & Planning Systems (EPS) to update these development impact fees based on the adopted General Plan and other related planning documents. Staff issued draft reports outlining the methodology and the maximum Development Impact Fees the City could charge. Staff initially presented the draft Development Impact Fee study at the May 1 , 2018 City Council meeting subsequent to which staff made presentations to the City's Economic Development and Vitality Committee (EVC), Chamber of Commerce, Planning Commission and at a public workshop. Based on feedback received from stakeholders and other factors such as development impact fees of neighboring cities, staff developed recommended Development Impact Fee levels. In addition, staff developed two alternative Development Impact Fee scenarios for Council consideration. RECOMMENDATIONS 1 . Receive and discuss staff's presentation on the recommended and alternative Development Impact Fee scenarios. 2. Provide direction to staff to finalize the Development Impact Fee schedules for City Council consideration at the September 18, 2018 Council meeting.
