Title
Chief Administrative Office recommending the Board order the Auditor-Controller to disburse $706,630.02 to the El Dorado Hills County Water District (El Dorado Hills Fire Department) from its Development Impact Mitigation Fee account for new and replacement apparatus, vehicles, equipment, and facility costs due to growth within the District.
FUNDING: Development Impact Fees.
Body
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
The California Mitigation Fee Act (Cal. Gov. §66000 et seq.) provides for the establishment of fees to mitigate the impacts of new development on public facilities in order to maintain the established level of service. Individual Special Districts do not have the authority to establish these fees; as a result, the County establishes fees on behalf of the districts. In accordance with the Mitigation Fee Act, these revenues are segregated and deposited into a separate account for each district.
Each request is needed in order to expand services based on the demand created by new development. The District’s request and link of reasonable relationship to their Nexus Study is attached. In accordance with the District's impact fee nexus study, new apparatus, vehicles, equipment, and facilities may be funded 100% by impact fees, and replacement apparatus, vehicles, equipment, and facilities may be funded 26.5% by impact fees.
