Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:

Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.

In 2000, the City implemented the Gateway Impact Fee Area and associated list of eligible impact fee projects. The fee is imposed upon development to pay the costs of regional infrastructure improvements in four main categories: transportation, drainage, fire, and trails/parks. In many circumstances, as development progresses, it is more efficient to have the private developer or partner organizations construct the regional infrastructure improvements as part of their development project.  When this occurs, the City contracts with the private developer for the use of the impact fees. Other times, the City will pursue completion of an eligible impact fee project directly.

   

This ordinance request seeks to transfer and appropriate $7,700,293 from various Gateway Impact Fee Trust Funds to the Capital Improvement Fund for payment of contract obligations, roadway and median projects, and other projects for parks and drainage improvements.  Of the $7.7M, $4M is for payment of existing or upcoming contract obligations (see attached summary), $3M is for roadway and median projects, and $700k is for future parks and drainage improvements.

 

This ordinance will transfer the Gateway Impact Fee Trust Funds into the Capital Improvement Fund as follows:
