Consultants recommend updated housing impact-fee methodology; 6,000 ft2 example fee rises to $865,000

Consultants presented a revised employment-generation study and proposed changes to the employee housing impact fee, including adding remodels, updating generation rates, lowering assumed mitigation unit size, and adjusting market-price inputs. A 6,000 ft2 new-build example produces an estimated fee of about $865,000 under proposed inputs.
