Committee affirms impact-fee allocation recommendation, to be forwarded to full commission
Summary
The subcommittee discussed an impact-fee amendment and agreed with budget and finance to forward a recommended allocation change to the full commission: a redistribution described as '15 going to 1' with residential fee referenced at $5,000 and thresholds for amounts exceeding $1,500 discussed.
Committee members reviewed the status of a proposed impact‑fee allocation and confirmed a recommendation from Cozen Zoning and Budget & Finance to send the amendment forward to the full commission.
Staff member (unnamed) reported that the impact-fee proposal was returned by the zoning subcommittee with an amendment described in the packet as shifting “15 going to 1 and the remainder of the fee going to everything else.” Budget & Finance’s recommendation aligned with that change, and the committee agreed to forward the item to the full commission.
Committee members clarified that the residential impact fee figure discussed in the packet is $5,000 and that the committee discussed which portions of a fee would apply when an individual assessment exceeded $1,500. One member asked whether the committee had discussed changing the fee amounts themselves; staff replied the discussion focused on allocation of collected funds rather than raising or lowering the residential fee amount.
Why it matters: impact-fee allocations determine how development-related fees are distributed among capital and operating priorities and will proceed to the full commission for consideration.
