Based on this independent fee rate, the proposed FAA Renton Office Expansion of 91,850 square feet (sf) would result in a transportation impact fee of $230,544 ($2.51/sf × 91,850 sf). Although the project would remove the existing daycare from the site, no credit for its removal was included in this fee calculation, since the daycare is effectively operating as a part of the FAA facility and did not appear to generate its own traffic. 2.
