ORDINANCE NO. 2283
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF REDDING (1) CONSOLIDATING
EXISTING DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES INTO ONE CHAPTER AND
EST ABLISHING PROCEDURES FOR THEIR COLLECTION; (2)
INCREASING CERTAIN DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES; (3)
ESTABLISHING A NEW DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE TITLED FIRE
FACILITIES IMPACT FEE; AND (4) REPEALING AND MODIFYING
VARIOUS CHAPTERS AND SECTIONS OF THE REDDING MUNICIPAL
CODE.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDDING DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1.
Purpose and Findings.
A. Purpose. The purpose of this ordinance is to assist in the implementation of the City of Redding
General Plan and the regulation of the use and development of land so as to assure that new
development bears a proportionate share of the cost of capital expenditures necessary to provide
facilities in the City; consolidate existing fees into a single, comprehensive chapter within the Redding
Municipal Code (RMC); and provide uniform procedures for the periodic review in the administration
of Redding's development impact fees.
B. > Findings. Based upon the State Constitution, State laws, and the record of proceedings relating to the
adoption of this ordinance, including the Comprehensive Impact Fee Study for the City of Redding
dated May 19,2000, the City Council finds the following:
1. The City has the authority to impose fees, charges, and rates under its police power pursuant to
the direct grant of police power by Article XI, Section 7 of the California Constitution.
Development fees are further authorized by State statutes, including, but not limited to, Health
& Safety Code Section 5471 relating to water, wastewater, and storm drainage fees, and
Government Code Section 66000 et seq., commonly known as the Mitigation Fee Act, relating
to development impact fees in general.
2. The purpose of each fee set forth in this ordinance is to collect funds for the construction of public
facilities, including public improvements, public services, and community amenities which serve
to maintain and improve the public health, safety, and welfare in response to new development
projects.
3. The fees collected shall be used for the construction of public facilities that are identified in the
City of Redding General Plan and applicable Specific Plans, the Capital Improvement Program,
the Regional Transportation Agency, the Comprehensive Impact Fee Study for the City of
Redding dated May 19,2000, and various studies relating to parks, water, sewer, and traffic.
.
.
4. The public improvements for which the fees shall be used are those made necessary by new
development projects. The specific necessity for such public improvements and the timing of
their construction are to accommodate growth as set forth in the City of Redding General Plan,
the General Plan Master Environmental Impact Report, applicable Specific Plans, the Capital
Improvement Program, and the Comprehensive Impact Fee Study for the City of Redding dated
May 19,2000.
5. The public improvements which have been identified as being necessary to accommodate growth
are reasonably related to the types of development projects on which the fees are imposed as set
forth in the Comprehensive Impact Fee Study for the City of Redding dated May 19,2000.
6. Using a "facilities cost per capita formula," a reasonable relationship exists between the amount
of each fee and the cost of the public improvements attributable to the development on which
each fee is imposed, based upon a calculation of "maximum justified impact fees" as set forth in
the Comprehensive Impact Fee Study for the City of Redding dated May 19,2000. Each fee
authorized by this ordinance is less than the identified maximum justified impact fee.
7. The development fees will not have an adverse impact upon the City's housing needs as
established in the Housing Element of the City of Redding General Plan. The public
improvements for which fees are imposed do not exceed the standards and criteria applicable to
new development in various areas throughout the City in a manner which would be discriminatory
to some or any economic segments of the community. This finding satisfies the findings required
by Government Code Section 65913.2 relating to new subdivision development projects.
8. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66018, the City Council held a properly noticed public
hearing on February 6,2001, to consider any new or increased fees adopted by this ordinance.
9. At the time of the adoption of this ordinance, the City of Redding had previously established
development impact fees for (1) water facilities, (2) sewer facilities, (3) new roads and related
facilities for both Citywide and Dana Drive transportation impact fee districts, (4) parks and
recreation facilities, (5) drainage and storm water detention, and (6) various special fees for
localized capital improvement projects.
10. The fees adopted by this ordinance are consistent with the City of ReddingGeneral Plan
Section 2.

A. Purpose. The purpose ofthis fee is to provide for costs of street widening and reconstruction, traffic
signals, transit facilities, bike paths, bridge widenings, and freeway interchange improvements related
to new development in accordance with the development forecast under the City of Redding General
Plan. As the amount of new development contemplated by the General Plan occurs, there will be an
additional burden on the Citywide surface transportation system. Without funding identified capital
improvements, there will be an unacceptable level of traffic congestion, delays, accidents, and generally
reduced public safety throughout the City. Air quality could be adversely affected as has been
demonstrated in other studies when idle/standing times are increased.

credited on a pro-rata basis against impact fees required by this chapter. Such credits shall
be determined and provided as set forth in Subsection D2c of this section.
c. A feepayer may obtain credit against all or a portion of impact fees otherwise due or to
become due by offering to dedicate nonsite-related right -of-way and/or to construct nonsite-
related roadway improvements. This offer must specifically request or provide for an
impact fee credit. Such construction must be in accordance with City or State design
standards, whichever are applicable. If the Director accepts such an offer, whether the
acceptance is before or after the effective date ofthe ordinance establishing this chapter, the
credit shall be determined and provided in the following manner:
(1) Credit for the dedication of nonsite-related right-of-way shall be valued at (1) one
hundred fifteen percent (115%) of the most-recent assessment value by the Shasta
County Assessor; or (2) by such other appropriate method as the City may have
accepted prior to July 5, 1990, for particular right-of-way dedications and/or roadway
improvements; or (3) at the option of the feepayer, by fair market value established by
private M.A.!. appraisers acceptable to the City. Credit for the dedication of right -of-
way should be provided when the property has been conveyed at no charge to, and
accepted by, the City.
(2) Applicants for credit for construction of nonsite-related road improvements shall
submit acceptable engineering drawings, specifications, and construction cost
estimates to the Director. The Director shall determine credit for roadway construction
based upon either these cost estimates or upon alternative engineering criteria and
construction cost estimates if the Director determines that such estimates submitted
by the applicant are either unreliable or inaccurate. The Director shall provide the
applicant with a letter or certificate setting forth the dollar amount of the credit, the
Page /3 of46

.
reason for the credit, and the legal description or other adequate description of the
project or development to which the credit may be applied. The applicant must sign
and date a duplicate copy of such letter or certificate indicating his agreement to the
terms ofthe letter or certificate and return such signed document to the Director before
credit will be given. The failure of the applicant to sign, date, and return such
document within sixty calendar days shall nullify the credit.
(3) Except as provided in Subsection D2c(4) of this section, credit against impact fees
otherwise due will not be provided until:
(a) The construction is completed and accepted by the City or State, whichever is
applicable;
(b) A suitable maintenance and warranty bond is received and approved by the City
when applicable;
(c) All design, construction, inspection, testing, bonding, and acceptance procedures
are in strict compliance with the then-current City public works improvement

D2c(3) of this section will be met and if the feepayer posts security as provided below
for the costs of such construction. Security in the form of a performance bond,
irrevocable letter of credit, or escrow agreement shall be posted with and approved by
the City Attorney in an amount determined by the Director. If the road construction
project will not be constructed within one year of the acceptance of the offer by the
Director, the amount of the security shall be increased by ten percent compounded for
each year of the life of the security. The security shall be reviewed and approved by
the City Attorney prior to acceptance of the security by the Director. If the road
construction project is not to be completed within two years of the date of the
feepayer's offer, the City Council must approve the road construction project and its
scheduled completion date prior to the acceptance of the offer by the Director.
d. Any claim for credit must be made no later than the time of application for a building permit
or permit for mobile home installation. The date in support of the claim for credit must be
submitted to the Director prior to issuance of the occupancy permit, or the claim shall be
deemed invalid. Any claim not so made shall be deemed waived.
e. Credits shall not be transferable from one project or development to another without the
approval of the City Council, and may only be transferred to a development in a different
impact fee zone upon a finding by the City Council that the dedication of right-of-way or
road construction for which the credit was given benefits such different impact fee zone.
f. In the event fee schedules are subsequently changed to reflect increases or decreases in
construction costs or other relevant factors, then a feepayer may request within six months
of the date the fee was paid a recalculation of credits to fairly reflect such change in
circumstances.
g. Determinations made by the Director pursuant to the credit provisions of this section may
be appealed to the Planning Commission by filing a written request with the Director,

C. Fee schedule. Fees and charges imposed pursuant to this section shall be based on the fee schedules
in effect on the date of the user's application for the appropriate building permit and shall be paid to
the City prior to the issuance of any water connection permit, or any physical connection to the water
system from the premises to which the charges apply.
1. Water connection charges. The charge represents a contributive share of the costs to provide
funds for use in constructing all or a portion of capital improvements necessary to serve new
customers. Each premises as defined in this chapter applying for a new water service, as
distinguished from a change in location,' shall pay the current connection charge, based on meter
size, per household equivalent, as follows:
a. Assessment of household equivalents.

2. Front footage charges. For each water connection made into a lateral which has not been
constructed or financed by means of a local assessment district, or through any other means in
which the applicant or his predecessor-in-interest obtained a vested interest, there shall be paid
by the applicant a front footage charge for lateral connection computed at the rates set forth below
per foot of street frontage of the premises to be connected as follows:
a. Effective 4/23/01: The fee shall be $14.00 per lineal front foot.
b. Effective 1/1/02 and on each January 151 thereafter the fee shall be increased by the
Construction Cost Index as published in the most -recent November Engineering News
Record.
The charge shall be computed on the front footage of the lot or logical divisible portion thereof,
but in no case less than sixty feet. Comer lots shall be computed on the basis of the length of the
front lot line. Flag lots, whether by easement or deeded access, shall be computed on the basis
of the length of the narrow side of the lot, irrespective of the portion used for access, except that
a minimum charge based on a 60- foot frontage shall be assessed.
When the real property for which the connection request is made fronts on a substandard main
in which the property owner or his predecessor-in-interest has a vested interest, the established
front footage charge will be reduced by a percentage credit determined by the ratio the diameter
of the substandard main bears to the diameter of a six-inch water line.
16.20.090 Sewer system impact fees.
A. Purpose. The purpose of the sewer system impact fee is to further and protect the health and safety
of the citizens of the City by providing for the construction of sewage and wastewater facilities,
including new sewer drains, treatment plants, and aeration ponds. As new development occurs, there
will be an additional burden placed on the existing sewer and waste water collection, treatment and
disposal systems. Federal, State and City health requirements set minimum standards for effluent
treatment that results in the demand for new sewer and waste water facilities. This section is intended
to complement the requirements ofRMC Chapter 14.16, and any conflicts or interpretations will be
governed by RMC Chapter 14.16.

2. Front footage charge. For each wastewater connection made into a lateral that has not been
constructed or financed by means of a local assessment district, or through any other means in.
which the applicant or his predecessor-in-interest obtained a vested interest, there shall be paid
by the applicant a front footage charge for lateral connection computed at the rates set forth below
per foot of street frontage of the premises to be connected, as follows:
a. Effective April 23, 2001, the fee shall be $16.50 per foot of street frontage of the
premIses.
b. Effective January 1,2002, and on each January 15t thereafter, the fee shall be increased
by the Construction Cost Index as published in the most-recent November Engineering
News Record.
The front footage of the premises, whether it be an interior or comer lot, shall be computed on
the basis of the length of the front lot line; provided that the minimum charge for any premises
shall be based on a sixty-foot frontage. Flag lots, whether by easement or deeded access, shall
be computed on the basis of the length of the narrow side of the lot, irrespective of the portion
used for access, except that a minimum charge based on a sixty-f90t frontage shall be assessed.
3. Special benefit charge. This charge will be collected from owners of new development in
localized areas that require sewer facilities not considered a part ofthe regional development of
sewer system facilities. Any such charge, as an additional development impact fee, must comply
with the provisions of the State Mitigation Fee Act, beginning with Government Code Section
. 66000, and must be adopted by ordinance pursuant to State Health and Safety Code Section 5471.
D. Deferred payment of sewer connection charges for a portion of the premises. When only a portion
of a legally divisible lot or parcel is developed, and the remaining portion is to continue undeveloped
or be used solely for the growing of agricultural crops, the sewer connection charge and the front
footage charge shall be computed only upon the basis of the improved portion of the legally divisible
lot or parcel; and in no event shall any premises so determined constitute an area of less than six
thousand square feet nor shall it have frontage ofless than sixty feet. The Director shall determine in

such case which portion of the legally divisible lot or parcel constitutes the premises, and his decision
shall not be subject to review in the absence of proof of fraud or discrimination.
16.20.100 Park and recreation facilities impact fees.
A. Purpose. The purpose of the parks and recreation facilities impact fee is to provide for the planning,
acquisition, improvement, expansion, and financing of public parks, playgrounds, and recreational
facilities. Increases in development and population result in an increased need for park and recreation
facilities. If this need were not met, the well-being of City residents could be adversely affected. In
order to address this potential and to meet City recreation standards, it is appropriate that new
development pay for additional park and recreation facilities attributable to the impact of such
development.
B. Fee schedule. A fee for each residential building permit shall be paid to the City as required by this
section, except for permits issued covering work performed on buildings or structures owned by any

D. Increase of residential density. In those cases where between the time of the approval of the final
map of the subdivision and the time of application for a building permit on a parcel or parcels of land
within that subdivision, a request for increased residential density has been filed and approved, in
addition to the fees provided for in this section, the property owner shall pay to the City an additional
fee in an amount equal to the difference between the fees paid pursuant to RMC Chapter 17.42 at the
time of approval of the final map for the subdivision, and the fees that would have been charged under
such chapter if the density was at that time the same as it is at the time of the building permit
application.
E. Credit for land dedication or prior payment ofin-lieu fees. Where pursuant to RMC Chapter 17.42
park land has been dedicated or an in-lieu park fee paid with the recording of a parcel or final map, the
amount of the park fee to be paid as established by resolution shall be reduced by the in-lieu fee paid
or the value of the land dedicated. The credit for the value of the land dedicated shall be as determined
in RMC Chapter 17.42.
16.20.110 Storm drainage impact fees.
A. Purpose. The purpose of the storm drainage impact fee is to finance the cost of drainage and storm
water detention projects, including mains, tributary systems, creek improvements and detention basins
that are related to new development. New development increases the amount of impervious surfaces
due to more roof area, paved streets, driveways, and parking lots. Flooding potential is thereby
increased, particularly during periods of high intensity and/or sustained rainfall, creating an
unacceptable hazard to citizen welfare and safety. The storm water drainage impact fees will finance
the improvements necessary to maintain adequate drainage, flood protection, and storm water detention
throughout the City in response to the impacts of new development. This section is intended to
complement the requirements of RMC Chapter 14.18, and any conflicts or interpretations will be
governed by RMC Chapter 14.18.
B. Definitions. For the purposes of this section:
1. "Storm drain" means a drain which carries storm water, surface runoff, street wastewater, and
drainage, but excludes sanitary sewage and industrial wastes.
2. "Storm drainage system" means all facilities, structures, and natural watercourses used for
collecting and conducting storm water to, through, and from drainage areas to the points offinal
outlet, including, but not limited to, any and all of the following: inlets, conduits and appurtenant
features, canals, creeks, channels, catch basins, ditches, streams, gulches, gullies, flumes, culverts,
siphons, retention or detention basins, dams, flood walls, levees, and pumping stations.
C. Fee schedule. Fees imposed pursuant to this section shall be based on the fee schedule in effect on the
date of the feepayer's application for the appropriate building permit and shall be paid prior to the
issuance of a building permit or a permit for mobile home installation, as follows:

16.20.130 Establishment of development impact fee accounts and use of funds.
A. There is established a development impact fee account or fund for each fee authorized by this chapter.
B. Fees collected from development impact fees levied pursuant to this chapter shall be used to fund
capital improvements and land purchases related to the purpose of each fee as outlined within this
chapter.
C. No funds shall be used for periodic or routine maintenance.
D. In the event that bonds or similar debt instruments are issued for advanced provision of capital facilities
for which impact fees may be expended, impact fees may be used to pay debt service on such bonds
or similar debt instruments to the extent that the facilities provided are of the type described in
Subsection B of this section.
E. At least bi-annually, the Director shall present to the City Council a proposed capital improvement
program, assigning funds, including any accrued interest, from the impact fee account or fund to
specific improvement projects and related expenses. Moneys, including any accrued interest, not
assigned in any fiscal period shall be retained in the same impact fee account or fund until the next

16.20.140 Schedule for construction and/or acquisition of facilities funded with development impact
fees.
The City shall have twelve months from the effective date of the ordinance establishing this chapter to
establish a schedule for the construction and/or acquisition of facilities shown in the exhibits to each
development impact fee study or in exhibits to this chapter. Except for facilities specifically approved by
the Director for construction by a property owner, all facilities shall be constructed in accordance with the
bi-annual review ofthe various fee programs and, further, as specifically approved bi-annually by the City
Council as part of its budget, fee review, or capital improvement plan. The requirements of this section are
in addition to the requirements of the State Mitigation Fee Act, Government Code Section 66001 and 66005.
16.20.150 Credit and reimbursement for construction of facilities.
A. Construction of facilities in plan year.
1. The Director may authorize, or a condition to the approval for a land use entitlement may require,
an owner of property to construct certain facilities or portions thereof specified in the
Comprehensive Impact Fee Study for the City of Redding dated May 19, 2000, the Capital
Improvement Program as updated from time-to-time, or such other capital facilities lists which
have been approved by the City Council. Such direction or authorization shall result in a credit
Page 32 of 46
.
.
in lieu of all, or a portion of, a particular fee required by this chapter to be paid by such owner that
relates to the improvement constructed. The owner is entitled to a credit if the owner (1)
constructs the improvements, (2) finances an improvement by cash or other means approved by
the City Council, (3) makes dedications ofland in support of the facility, or (4) a combination of
the above. The credit to be provided to the property owner shall be determined by the Director
based on the actual costs of improvements plus actual costs for engineering and City
administration. The construction of a facility authorized by this section must consist of a usable
facility or segment and be approved by the City and constructed in accordance with the City's
public improvement design standards. The property owner must post a bond or other security in
a form reviewed and approved by the City Attorney prior to acceptance by the Director for the
complete performance of the construction in order to receive credit prior to completion of
construction.
2. Ifthe amount of fee credit is less than the amount of the otherwise applicable fee, the property
owner shall thereafter pay an amount which, when added to the credit received for the
construction of facilities, equals the fee obligation.
3. If the amount of fee credit is greater than the amount of the otherwise applicable fee, the property
owner shall be paid the difference from the appropriate development impact fee fund, after the
project is accepted by the City, and at the end of the fiscal year in which the project is planned to
be completed under the appropriate fee study, providing funds are available, except as specified
in Subsection B of this section. With specific approval of the City Council, reimbursement may
occur after the year in which the project is planned and accepted by the City if, in the opinion of
the Director, the delay is necessary to assure the orderly implementation of the City capital
improvement plan. Interest equivalent to the rate earned during the period of delayed
reimbursement by the trust account shall be applied to a credit following acceptance of the
improvements, or as otherwise agreed between the City and the developer.
B. Construction of facilities prior to scheduled year.
1. If the construction described in Subsection A of this section occurs before the fiscal year for
which construction is scheduled under a development impact fee study, the property owner may
receive credit against the applicable fee if approved by the Director or his designee. The property
owner shall be reimbursed from the appropriate development impact fee fund at the end of the
year in which the project is scheduled. Reimbursement is available only to the degree funds are
available in any given year. Ifreimbursement cannot be made during one year, the unreimbursed
portion will continue in following years until repaid. The reimbursable amount shall be the cost
of the facility as determined in Subsection A of this section or as otherwise agreed between the
City and the owner.
2. To implement Subsection Bl of this section, the property owner or developer and the City shall
first enter into,a reimbursement agreement. In addition to its other terms, the agreement shall
provide that:
a. No fund of the City, other than the appropriate development impact fee fund, is liable for
payment of any obligations arising from the agreement.
b. The credit or taxing power of the City is not pledged for the payment of any obligations
arising from the agreement.
c. The land owner shall not compel the exercise of the City taxing power or the forfeiture of
any of its property to satisfy any obligations arising from the agreement.
Page 33 of 46
.
.
d. The obligation arising from the agreement is not a debt of the City, nor a legal or equitable
pledge, charge, lien, or encumbrance upon any of its property, or upon any of its income,
receipts, or revenues, and is payable only from the fees deposited in the appropriate City
development impact fee account.
e. The reimbursable amount shall be adjusted annually in accordance with the most-recent
Engineering News Record Index applicable to the fees themselves, or otherwise adjusted
by agreement between the parties.
16.20.160 Enforcement.
A. All charges relating to development impacts applicable to any premises provided for in this chapter
shall be deemed a debt owing to the City.
B. Any person who makes a connection to the City utilities infrastructure without first having paid
applicable charges in full, or otherwise violates a provision of this chapter, shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor and shall be subject to having such connections disconnected.
C. A violation of this chapter shall be prosecuted in the same manner as misdemeanors are prosecuted;
and upon conviction, the violator shall be punishable according to law. However, in addition to or in
lieu of any criminal prosecution, the City shall have the power to sue in civil court to enforce the
provisions of this chapter.
D. The conviction or punishment of any person for a misdemeanor violation resulting from the connection
to infrastructure of City utilities without first obtaining a permit to do so shall not relieve the person
from paying the charges due and unpaid applicable fees.
16.20.170 Refund or reimbursement of fees paid.
A. If a building permit or permit for mobile home installation expires without commencement of
construction, then the feepayer shall be entitled to a refund, without interest, of the impact fee paid as
a condition for its issuance, except that the City shall retain a reasonable amount- not more than five
percent of the fee, but not less than $30.00-to offset a portion of the costs of collection and refund.

C. Except as provided in Subsection B of this section, the City shall refund to the current record owner
on a prorated basis the unexpended or uncommitted portion of the fee, and any interest accrued thereon,
for which need cannot be established.
16.20.180 Other authority.
A. This chapter is intended to establish a supplemental method for funding the cost of certain public
facilities, services, and infrastructure, the demand for which is reasonably related to and thereby
reasonably resulting from the level and type of new development proposed> in the City of Redding
General Plan.
B. The provisions ofthis chapter shall not be construed to limit the power of the City Council to impose
any other fees or exactions or to continue to impose existing obligations on the right to develop within
the City, but shall be in addition to any other requirements which the City Council is authorized to
impose, or has previously imposed, as a condition of approving a plan, a development, rezoning. or
other entitlement. In particular, individual property owners shall remain obligated to fund, construct,
and/or dedicate the improvements, public facilities, and other exactions required by, but not limited to,
the City codes, public improvement design standards, and other applicable documents, and to mitigate
environmental impacts from development.
C. The City Council may adopt a special benefit zone for the purpose of assessing a development impact
fee when it finds that a Citywide development impact fee is not sufficient to meet the needs for new
public facilities in a localized area of the City. Any such charge, as an additional development impact
fee, must comply with the applicable provisions of the State Mitigation Fee Act, beginning with
Government Code Section 66000. Development impact fees for sewer, water, and storm drainage must
be adopted by ordinance. All other development impact fees may be adopted by resolution of the City
Council. The resolution or ordinance adopting the development impact fee within a special benefit
zone shall include the method of calculation or formula for determining the amount of credit to be
applied to the applicable Citywide development impact fee, or provide that the fee shall be in addition
to the applicable Citywide development impact fee, without any credit or offset.
16.20.190 Review.
A. Within 180 days following the last day of each fiscal year, the Director shall prepare and make
available to the public an activity report covering the fiscal year for the City Council identifying the
current fee amount charged (ifnot set forth in this chapter), the beginning and ending balance of fees
in each trust account, the amount of fees collected and the interest earned, an identification of each
public improvement on which fees were expended, the capital facilities to be constructed and the
identification of an approximate date by which the construction of each facility to be constructed will
commence if the Director determines that sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing
on an incomplete public improvement. In preparing the report, the Director shall adjust the estimated
costs of the public improvements in accordance with the Engineering Construction Cost Index as
published by Engineering News Record for the elapsed time period from the previous July I sl or the
date the cost estimate was developed.
Page 35 of 46
.
.
B. The City Council shall review the report at a noticed public hearing held not earlier than 15 days after
the report is made available to the public. Within five years following the adoption of any impact
authorized by this chapter, and every five years thereafter, the City Council shall make the findings
required by Government Code Section 66001 for all impact fees authorized by this chapter, except that
such findings are not required for sewer and water impact fees. At any time the City Council may
revise the impact fee program to include additional projects not foreseen as being needed, provided that
the appropriate findings required by the Mitigation Fee Act and other appropriate State law are made.
C. In addition to the procedures identified in Subsection B of this section, the development impact fees
and studies shall be comprehensively updated (1) in conjunction with or following a comprehensive
General Plan update; or (2) when the City Council determines that growth has occurred at rates
significantly above the estimates set forth in the General Plan such that additional or different fees and
facilities are needed; or (3) more frequently if directed by the City Council, by ordinance, or, if
authorized by this chapter, by resolution after a noticed public hearing.

.
more than one user on a single water service. If there develops a disagreement
with regard to the charge to multiple users on a single water service, the Public
Works Director may require individual meters to be installed. Should it be
impractical to install individual meters, the Public Works Director may assign
charges based on like uses in the City.

strength.
a. Industrial users that do not use a substantial volume of water in product
manufacturing or processing shall be assessed a fee per thousand gallons of water
used as measured by a meter installed by the City, or shall be assessed a fee per
household equivalent discharged in which water use or household equivalent
value is determined by Class II dischargers.
b. Industrial users that use a substantial volume of water during manufacturing or
processing shall be assessed a fee per household equivalent discharged based on
periodic monitoring' of water quality and quantity.
c. Food preparation facilities charged on the basis of water consumption: multiply
the appropriate amount from Table 4 (RMC Section 14.16.240 A4) by 1.24.
d. Food preparation facilities charged on the basis of household equivalents:,
multiply the appropriate amount from Table 3 (RMC Section 14.16.240 A3) by
1.24.
4. Class IV. Users that have no prior history of water use. These users shall be evaluated
on a case-by-case basis by the Public Works Director, and an equitable monthly charge
shall be assessed for a maximum of twelve months. The assessment shall be based on
methods used to assess charges for Class II and Class III. Dischargers shall be
reassigned to another class as appropriate.
