Roy Hanley explained that a number of calls have come in recently from people who want to request a fee waiver and/or are suggesting the development fee issue be revisited. He reported that he is preparing a legal opinion on this matter and had planned to announce his intent to do so under Individual Determination. Councilmember Carden remarked that he thought the Finance Committee was going to look at this issue. The City Manager clarified that although the committee may look at residential development impact fees, this matter relates to commercial development. The City Council directed staff to resolve the matter as soon as possible and directed the Deputy City Attorney to bring back a draft contract for a certain amount of fees and any mechanism for securing the balance. Councilmember Carden asked staff to also prepare a report on comparable fees. Ann Landers-Ketcherside commented that she thinks that developer fees are too high and that the issue should be studied. She also voiced a concern that too many items are lumped together as one in the proposed budget. A. CONSENT CALENDAR: 1.
