·Item Submitted By: ·Ted Mayo, Asst. City Engineer i
Council Meeting Date: September 27, 2001
Director Approval:
City Manager Approval: I
Item: Presentation, discussion and possible action on a Resolution
authorizing the Mayor to execute a "CERTIFICATION OF COMPLIANCE"
stating that the City of College Station is in compliance with Chapter 395,
Local Government Code.
Item Summary: During the last session of the Texas Legislature Senate Bill
243 was passed and made several changes to Chapter 395 of the Local
Government Code which regulates impact fees. One requirement that was
added requires a political subdivision that imposes an impact fee to submit a
written certification verifying compliance with Chapter 395 to the attorney
general each year not later than the last day of the political subdivision's
fisca l year. The certification must be signed by the presiding officer of the
po Ii ti ca I subdivision.
The only change that affects the maximum amount that can be charged
requires the Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) to contain a plan for awarding
a credit for the portion of ad valorem tax and utility service revenues
generated by new service units during the program period that is used for
the payment of improvements, including the payment of debt, that are
included in the capital improvements plan; or in the alternative, a credit
equal to 50 percent of the total projected cost of implementing the capital
improvements plan.
Staff has determined that the City is in compliance with the newly revised
Chapter 395 at the present time.
In looking forward staff will need to re-evaluate each of the four current
impact fees to define required credits and re-submit each for review and
approval to insure compliance.
Item Background: The City currently has four impact fees in effect as
follows:
• Sanitary Sewer Impact Fee "92-0l"(Graham Road) -$232.04/
LUE; Implemented August 1992
• Sanitary Sewer Impact Fee "97-0l"(Spring Creek) -$349.55/
LUE; Implemented December 1997
• Sanitary Sewer Impact Fee "97-02B"(Alum Creek) -$243.38/
LUE; Implemented December 1997
• Water Impact Fee "99-01" (East SH 6 South) -$550.00/ LUE;
Implemented April 1999
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that Council authorize the
Mayor to execute a "CERTIFICATION OF COMPLIANCE" as required by
Senate Bill 243.
Council Action Options: Approve or disapprove
