The Auburn City Council on Aug. 4 approved Ordinance 69-92 to revise the city’s transportation impact-fee program.
Council member Tracy Taylor moved the ordinance; Council member Baldwin seconded. Tracy Taylor said the ordinance updates Auburn City Code chapter 19.04 to align the transportation impact-fee program with the city’s comprehensive transportation plan and to “provide improved program transparency, flexibility, and predictability.” Council member Baldwin thanked staff for adding options for the business community and said she expected the changes would help attract more business to Auburn.
The council adopted the ordinance by voice vote; no roll-call tally or detailed fee schedule was included in the meeting transcript. The item was presented as a code update to align fees and procedures with the comprehensive transportation plan.
