413 <br /> <br /> Ms. Mohr stated that last year's Growth Management Committee <br />recommended that the development fee, $2,000 then, be used for <br />capital improvements needed in the specific project and that it <br />would cost less if the work is done by the developer's crew who are <br />already on the site. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarvet stated that a Growth Management agreement is <br />necessary to have what is agreed upon in written form. He added <br />that Council has not made any decision on how the development fees <br />should be used and that more investigation is needed to determine <br />how much a new development would need to pay its own way. With <br />respect to the water issue, he indicated that any form of mandatory <br />rationing should stop further development until the problem is <br />resolved. <br /> <br /> Ms. Scribner stated that a specific figure for mandatory <br />rationing is not necessary to determine when building permits <br />should be withheld but that the City should have the ability to <br />decide at some point when new building permits should not be <br />issued. She proposed that the agreement be amended to indicate <br />that new building permits will not be issued when the City <br />determines that there is insufficient water, as evidenced by <br />mandatory rationing. In this way, any change in the City's water <br />policy would not require a change in the agreement. <br /> <br /> Mr. Butler commented that the agreement being considered at <br />this time is what would be used for this year and may be changed <br />for future years. <br /> <br /> Ms. Scribner stated that no reference was made in the Staff <br />Report about Growth Management lapsing. She inquired when Growth <br />Management lapses and when it doesn't. <br /> <br /> Mr. Roush explained that the Growth Management Ordinance sets <br />forth the conditions under which Growth Management lapses, which <br />occurs when a final map is not taken out by December 31st of the <br />year following Growth Management approval. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mercer explained that projects are approved under the <br />ordinance, and the agreement is entered into with the developers, <br />each one of whom would have different criteria based upon the <br />allocations received and the duration of the agreement. <br /> <br /> - 19 - <br /> 8-20-91 <br /> <br /> <br />
