Title
Consider A Resolution Calling For A Public Hearing To Be Set On January 7, 2025 To Consider Adoption Of Amendments To The Land Use Assumptions, Capital Improvements Plan (CIP), And Amendment Of Impact Fees For The Designated Service Area.
Body
BACKGROUND:
The City of Carrollton established impact fees by Ordinance No. 1648 on August 7, 1990, in accordance with chapter 395 of the Texas Local Government Code. The latest change to the impact fee schedule was approved by Council on April 26, 2002, determined from a 2001 master plan. This master plan was created to model and identify deficiencies and areas of improvement for the City's water distribution system. The plan had a community build-out time horizon of 2010. The elements and recommendations of the plan were implemented to ensure the City's water infrastructure sufficiently kept up with the Community's new development, redevelopment, and water demand over the last 22 years.
With the increasing potential for redevelopment and revitalization in certain areas of the City, the City contracted Birkhoff, Hendricks, and Carter, LLP, to complete Water and Wastewater Capital Improvement Plans ("CIPs"), an update to the Land Use Assumptions Map, and an update to the City's Water and Wastewater Impact Fees. The two CIPs update the system through the next ten years. A copy of the fee impact study is available in the Engineering Department, Carrollton City Hall, 1945 Jackson Ave, Carrollton, TX 75006 and on the Engineering Department's website at https://www.cityofcarrollton.com/departments/departments-a-f/engineering/2024-impact-fee-study.
As part chapter 395 of the Texas Local Government Code, the City must call for a public hearing on the amendments to the Land Use Assumptions, Capital Improvements Plan and Impact Fees.
