FISCAL IMPACT
Although a fiscal impact analysis has not been conducted on this specific project, all new development will have an ongoing fiscal impact on the City. The development is responsible for construction of all infrastructure necessary to serve the site and will generate one-time revenue for the City through payment of permits, construction sales tax and development impact fees. Longer term fiscal impacts include increased demands for municipal services, the costs of which may or may not be offset by increased property values/tax levies, city sales tax, state shared revenues and the increased demand for commercial and retail development. Any areas that will be maintained by the city are constructed by the developer and then conveyed to the city two years after construction.

STAFF ANALYSIS
The right-of-way width and road alignment established with this map of dedication (MOD) is consistent with the city of Goodyear Transportation Master Plan. The approval of this MOD will provide the necessary city right-of-way width in which Project Hustle can construct the offsite infrastructure improvements required by the project.
