Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Chris Saunders, Assistant Director
Tim McHarg, Director
Chris Kukulski, City Manager
SUBJECT: IFCR-0601 Mitchell Development
MEETING DATE: Monday, October 4, 2010
AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent Item
RECOMMENDATION: Schedule October 25, 2010 date for hearing of impact fee credit
request and associated appeal regarding credit eligibility.
BACKGROUND: Chapter 3.24, BMC authorizes the City to conduct an impact fee program.
This program includes mechanisms for impact fee credits and for appeals of administrative
decisions. Mitchell Development Group made application for impact fee credits. In reviewing
that application, Staff has made findings with which Mitchell Development Group disagreed.
They appealed those administrative findings. An appeal committee established by Chapter 3.24
heard the initial appeal and made their decision. Mitchell Development Group now appeals that
decision to the City Commission as allowed in Section 3.24.110.I.
The next step in the appeal process is for the City Commission to set the date for consideration of
the appeal. Once the date is set, an information packet will be prepared explaining the decisions
being appealed. Also included in that information packet will be the request for consideration for
impact fee credits. Given the value of the credits sought the City Commission is the decision
making body for the request. As the appeal and the credit request are directly connected they will
be presented as a single item.
FISCAL EFFECTS: No immediate fiscal affects are anticipated from setting the date for
consideration of the appeal.
ALTERNATIVES: The City Commission must consider this item. The Commission does have
discretion on when they choose to schedule the item. Staff suggests a time
not sooner than October 25th to allow time for the staff and applicant to
prepare materials for the City Commission’s consideration.
