§ 56.07. Transportation Impact Fee Rate Schedule.
A.
Any person may determine their Transportation Impact Fee by using the following fee rate schedule. The fee rate schedule is presented for the convenience of the public and may be used in lieu of the alternative method of calculation set forth in Section 56.08 of this Chapter. The fee rates have been calculated using the method of calculation presented in Section 56.08 using recognized accepted trip generation rates and/or Person Miles of Travel based upon acceptable national averages. For the convenience of the public, the fee rates which are based on trip generation and/or Person Miles of Travel have been converted to dollar amounts per unit of development, i.e., per dwelling unit, per 1,000 square feet, per room, etc., depending upon the type or classification of land use.
Transportation Impact Fee Rate Schedule: See Composite Exhibit "A." The Transportation Impact Fee Rate Schedule shall be effective as provided by law, and shall be based on the most recent and localized data. Resolutions establishing transit service districts will be adopted by City Council.
B.
The total transportation impact fee for a specified type of land use is calculated by multiplying the Discounted Impact Fee Rate (from the definition of Site Related Improvements in Section 56.04) for the specified type of land use by the number of units of development of the specified type of the land use.
C.
To account, in part, for the effects of inflation on the costs of right-of-way, design and road construction, the City's Transportation Planning Division shall index the transportation impact fee rate annually, subject to City Council's approval as described herein, to be applied beginning January 1, 2011, and January 1st of each year thereafter, including accrued indexing amounts, to reflect either (i) the published costs for these items in the most recent version of the Consumer Price Index or (ii) three percent (3%), whichever is less. The City's Transportation Planning Division Manager shall confirm the reasonableness of the proposed index to the rates. Based on the reference data and methodology contained in this subsection, the City's Transportation Planning Division shall submit a request for the proposed indexing of the Transportation Impact Fee as a separate item in the Division's annual budget submittal to City Council. If City Council approves the proposed indexing of the impact fee rate as a part of the Division's budget submittal, the City's Transportation Planning Division Manager shall submit an ordinance for City Council approval, adopting the new impact fee rate(s). If City Council does not adopt the proposed indexing of impact fee rate(s), the impact fee rate for the previous year remains in effect.
