REVIEW OF PROCEEDINGS (OPENING STATEMENT)
Ms. North introduced new members to the committee.
NEW BUSINESS:
(OVERVIEW OF IMPACT FEES)
Raelynn North (Finance Director) 411 Blaine St., began discussion on updating Impact Fee
Ordinance by removing old language and replacing it with new language.
(AUDIT REPORT UPDATE)
Ms. North discussed audit and impact fee internal controls. There was also discussion around
future fee increases or recommendations. Ms. North and Mr. MacDonald would provide data to
the committee. In addition, CIP was explained and would move forward with recalculation.
Ms. North would review construction projects to determine if an impact fee could be charged.
(TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN)
Robb MacDonald (Public Works Director) 411 Blaine St., stated that the City was moving from
traffic mitigation process to impact fees, which is more in line with other communities.
He reported that the Transportation Plan was completed and would now move to CIP. He added
that there would need to be multiple meetings with the Impact Fee Committee.
Mr. MacDonald noted that the Master Plan would include pedestrian infrastructure to calculate
the level of service. In addition, he indicated there were projects included in the Master Plan that
were not impact fee eligible. The process would be to remove those projects to get a CIP. If both
the County and City adopt the Plan, then both would collect the fees.
Mr. Rob Pilote asked if the service area and the impact area would allow the fees to be reduced.
