HomeMy WebLinkAbout7151 RESOLUTION NO. 7151 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE TRANSPORTATION IMPACT FEE FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT IN THE CITY OF ARCADIA WHEREAS on December 6, 2005, the City Council of the City of Arcadia approved the Transportation Master Plan and adopted Resolution No. 6495 approving the Transportation Impact Fee Program and a Transportation Impact Fee with the following conditions: 1. The Transportation Impact Fee is imposed upon all new development in the City. The purpose of the Transportation Impact Fee is to help pay for needed traffic improvements to maintain certain intersections at a Level of Service "D" or better. 2. The City determined that certain street intersections, which were identified in the Transportation Master Plan and the Transportation Impact Fee Program as needing long-range improvements, must be improved. The needed improvements to maintain Level of Service "D" or better at the intersections increases with the increased traffic flow expected from new development. 3. The Transportation Impact Fees shall be used for the improvements to the intersections identified in the Transportation Impact Fee Program. 4. It is reasonable to impose the Transportation Impact Fees on all types of new development within the City because all new development adds additional vehicular trips that place an increased burden on the City's roadway capacity. 5. There is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the Transportation Impact Fee established and the new development that is paying the Fee, because the Fee was based on the amount of P.M. peak hour vehicle trips attributed to such 1 development in relation to the total number of P.M. peak hour vehicle trips that the intersections are designed to handle at Level of Service "D" or better, and new development is required to fund only its share of the improvements; and WHEREAS on March 7, 2006, the City Council approved minor changes to the Transportation Master Plan and approved Resolution No. 6510 approving a revised Transportation Impact Fee; and WHEREAS in November of 2014, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Gibson Transportation Consulting, Inc., for the preparation of an Update to the Transportation Impact Fee Program and a revised Transportation Impact Fee; and WHEREAS the Transportation Fee Program Update has now been completed based on the original conditions stated above, and the revised Transportation Impact Fee is ready for adoption; and WHEREAS, a duly noticed Public Hearing was held by the City Council on October 18, 2016 concerning the proposed adoption of a revised Transportation Impact Fee as set forth in this Resolution.
