Council authorizes $132k–$136k contract to update Killeen water and wastewater impact fees
Summary
Council approved a professional services agreement with Kimley‑Horn to update the city’s water and wastewater impact fees to reflect the 2025 master plan; staff cited a fee proposal amount that varied in presentation notes and requested authorization to execute the agreement and change orders.
The Killeen City Council authorized staff to execute a professional services agreement with Kimley‑Horn to update water and wastewater impact fees following adoption of the city’s 2025 water and wastewater master plan.
Staff explained that the 2021 impact-fee adoption requires updating after the April 1, 2025 master plan because new capital projects and costs must be reflected in impact-fee calculations. State law requires periodic reviews of impact fees and there is a five‑year time frame for updates. Staff recommended Kimley‑Horn because it completed the original study and is familiar with the city’s prior impact‑fee work.
Staff presented fee amounts in the same segment with slightly inconsistent figures: an agenda caption listed $136,080; the on-record presenter later referenced $132,920. The memorandum resolution on the consent agenda (RS25120) authorized the manager to execute a professional services agreement for the update and to execute change orders within legal limits; council approved the consent agenda 6-0.
Next steps: Kimley‑Horn will review the master plan, conduct required public outreach, and prepare an updated impact fee analysis for staff and council review.
