SUBJECT:Semi-Annual Report –Impact Fees92-01, 97-01, 97-02B, 99-01, 03-02
Local Government Code requires semi-annual reporting in order to monitor the progress
of impact fees and to determine when anupdate to the fee study is necessary. An
update was recommended and approved previously, and is currently under way. There
have been no major changes over the last reporting period. Staff recommends that the
Advisory Committee forward this report to City Council for their status update.
The City of College Station Ordinance Chapter 15, Impact Fees, designates the
Planning and Zoning Commission as the Advisory Committee for review, advisement,
and monitoring of proposed and existing impact fees. More specifically, the Advisory
Committee is established to:
1.Advise and assist the City in adopting Land Use assumptions.
2.Review the Capital Improvements Plan and file written comments.
3.Monitor and evaluate implementation of the Capital Improvements Plan.
4.File semi-annual reports with respect to the progress of the Capital
Improvements Plan.
5.Advise the City Council of the need to update or revise the Land Use
Assumptions, Capital Improvements Plan, and Impact Fees.
Currently the City of College Station has five impact fees in existence of which all
associated construction is complete. All five of the impact fees underwent a 5-Year
