Staff recommend adjusting the rate to be more aligned with peer jurisdictions. Also, the State enabled cities to provide a reduction in the rate charged to daycare facilities; specifically an 80% reduction. Staff recommend adopting this provision. Engineering staff would like to shift from using the 9th to the 11th Edition of the International Transportation Engineering Trip and Parking Generation Manual and making some other adjustments to rates as shown below. A few years ago, the City implemented a provision that set an expiration on the amount of time a new use could utilize a discounted amount of impact fees based on the previous use, single family residential was exempted from this. Staff recommend extending this exemption to all residential uses.
