Impact Fee Study- Horrocks Engineering:

Clint Boyle, Drew Geiger and Kevin Croshaw came forward and presented a power point presentation recapping the steps to follow in developing impact fees for the city.  The steps were:

• Create a master plan – with a 20-30 year forecast
• Create a capital facility plan – with a 10 year forecast
• Create an impact fee analysis – based on estimate costs of project identified in the mater and capital facility plan. 

One of the main points stressed by the engineers was to have the plan defensible on how the fees were based and determined.  They also covered the various options available for determining a constant and consistent rate per user.  The city needs to identify the priorities of projects be it parks, roads, water, sewer, all or any combination thereof.  This would be the first step then have an impact study conducted based on the priorities listed by the city.  At a later point more could be added and or modified as facts and circumstance change.
