<br />relatively constant in the foreseeable future. As a result, the focus of the policy concepts
<br />discussed beloW' relate to Parks and Miscellaneous projects.
<br />
<br />Parks and Miscellaneous Revenues
<br />
<br />Historically, the majority of funding for Parks and Miscellaneous projects comes from developer
<br />fees and CIP General Fund. The amount of developer fees is directly related to the amount of
<br />neW' fee paying development activity and W'hile the amount of fees collected previously has been
<br />significant, these revenues W'ill most likely decline in the future. While General Fund revenue
<br />can be used on any project, developer fees are restricted as noted above. A summary of fee
<br />projections included in the CIP is listed beloW'.

<br />PROJECTED CITY DEVELOPMENT RELATED FEES
<br />
<br />While current development revieW's and potential neW' development activity such as Staples
<br />Ranch, Hacienda Business Park, and Stoneridge Mall may significantly impact these
<br />projections, their impact W'ill not be long term and staff projects a continued gradual reduction in
<br />developer related revenues that have traditionally funded these parks and miscellaneous projects.
<br />In addition, as indicated in the CIP, General Fund contributions to the CIP may also be impacted
<br />as greater emphasis is placed on providing public services and facility/infrastructure
<br />maintenance to the City's groW'ing public assets.
<br />
<br />Regardless of long term revenue projections, based on current planning activity, including the
<br />development of the Bemal property, the primary issue facing the CIP is that project related
<br />expectations W'ill need to be carefully planned consistent W'ith available and projected revenues.
<br />
<br />To accomplish this step, staff informed the Council that it W'ould develop a priority system that
<br />could be used to establish CIP funding priorities. A similar approach used for allocating
<br />affordable housing units has been in place for a number of years and has proven to be
<br />successfuL Currently, the CIP approval process is based on a number of factors including public
<br />demand, commission and Council priority, available funding, staff identification of need, etc.
