Whenever a reviewing authority is asked to consider the approval of a division of land for sale or lease or the approval of a site plan, the reviewing official shall make a written determination of concurrency in connection with facilities proposed or available for the project. b. With respect to each of the public facilities identified above, concurrency shall be established and determined as follows: i. Sewer: (1) The project is within an area approved for sewer pursuant to the adopted Sewer Comprehensive Plan for the City. (2) Improvements necessary to provide City standard facilities and services are present or are on an approved and funded plan to assure availability in time to meet the needs of the proposed development. Ordinance 580 2. ii. Water: (1) The project is within an area approved for municipal water service pursuant to the adopted Water Comprehensive Plan for the City. (2) Improvements necessary to provide City standard facilities and services are present or are on an approved and funded plan to assure availability in a time to meet the needs of the proposed development. iii. Parks: The project meets the requirements of the City fee-in-lieu requirements for parks, Chapter 14.12 Yelm City Code. iv. Schools: The project sponsor provides a letter from the local school district that the school facilities impacted by the proposed development are present, or are on an approved and funded plan, to assure that facilities will be available to meet the needs and impacts of the proposed development. v. Transportation: (1) The project makes on-site and frontage improvements, consistent with City standards for utilities, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, bicycle lanes where appropriate, and roads necessary to serve the proposed project consistent with safety and public interest. (2) The project makes such off-site ,facility improvements, not listed on the capital facilities plan, as are necessary to meet City standards for the safe movement of traffic and pedestrians attributable to the project. Where a developer is required to oversize an off-site facility for a project by more than 10% of the need generated by the proposed project, the City may consider a developer reimbursement contract as authorized by state law. (3) The project makes a contribution to the facilities identified in off-site comprehensive transportation plan, in the form of a Transportation Facility Charge based on the list of projects specified to be constructed within the next six years, or as partial credit against such charge, constructs a portion of the six-year facility, in which case a credit shall be given for the reasonable cost incurred therein, but not to exceed the extent of potential savings to the City. (4) Appendix A to this ordinance is the traffic report identifying the Transportation Facility Charge for the six-year road program in place at the date of the adoption of this ordinance. Such traffic report is to be Ordinance 580 3 updated no less than annually, by July 1, of each year; provided, however, the plan in effect shall remain in effect until a successor plan is fully adopted. Section 3. Determination and Payment of the Transportation Facility Charge a. The Transportation Facility Charge shall be based on the per peak hour trip rate identified in the report from transportation trip calculations based on a transportation report consistent with City standards. b. City Standards shall include: Standard transportation assumptions as identified in Table 1. ii. For facilities not on the standard transportation assumptions, the Institute of Traffic Engineers trip generation manual for the most recent year. iii. For projects with nontraditional peal hour impacts or different from standard projects modelled in Table 1, a special report, based on generally accepted traffic engineering principles may be submitted and considered. c. Credits shall be given to reflect the projected impact on the community system such as, traffic decreases where an existing facility on site is removed or replaced, and traffic reduction systems which are binding and likely to remain effective for the life of the project. d. Credits may also be given for projects which create a significant economic benefit to the community, including industrial or manufacturing uses with an excess of 500 trips per day. The size of the credit shall be measured at an appropriate percentage of the anticipated annual tax revenue increase to the community and available for capital contribution to transportation facilities on the approved plan as a result of the project. e. Payment of the Transportation Facility Charge shall be as follows: i. For projects involving the division of land for sale of lease-upon the issuance of a building permit for construction of each lot of record, for the traffic attributable to that lot. ii. For projects approved through site plan review-upon the issuance of the building permit authorizing the construction of any phase, for the traffic associated with that phase. iii. For any project over 100 peak hour trips per day-the fee may be paid in installments, at the municipal rate of interest in effect on the day of building permit issuance, with 50% being paid at the issuance of the building Ordinance 580 4 permit and the balance paid within 24 months, recognizing the lead time for the City to bring major projects on line. Section 4. Accounting and Appeals a. All fees collected under this chapter shall be placed in separate accounts for the dedicated purpose for which collected. Such funds may only be expended for identified facilities on an approved plan, and must be spent within six years absent a specific situation where the City can justify a longer period. b. If an applicant desires to challenge the calculation or assessment of any fee, such fee shall be paid under protest and the permit may be issued. Appeals shall be heard by the City Council upon a de novo hearing. c. Any such appeal shall consider the issues. raised, the proper fee to be assessed, and the necessity to find concurrency as a precondition to any project approval. The proper fee to be charged on appeal is determined (1) by compliance with the terms of this ordinance, and (2) if for any reason the terms of this ordinance are found inappropriate, such fee as necessary to assure concurrence for all facilities identified herein, but not to exceed the fee collected pursuant to this ordinance. Section 5. Effective Date The ordinance shall be applicable to all land divisions and land developments and master plan reviews for which applications are complete after the adoption date of this ordinance.
