CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
City Council Meeting:

Department:
Engineering
Subject:
Resolution 25-R-017
- Establishing a date for a Public Hearing on Amendments to the Land Use Assumptions, Capital Improvement Plans, and Impact Fees for Water and Wastewater Utilities (B.James/K.Woodlee)
BACKGROUND
Related to Water and Wastewater Capital Recovery Fees, or Impact Fees - in accordance with Texas Local Government Code (TLGC) Chapter 395, the City is required to periodically evaluate land use assumptions (LUA) and capital improvement plans (CIP) to determine if amendments are warranted. Staff's evaluation of previously adopted LUA and CIP for water and wastewater utilities led to the conclusion that amendments to those documents are recommended. Subsequent to the updates of the LUA and CIP, updated Impact Fee rates are also recommended.
Staff has worked with the City's consultant, Lockwood, Andrews, and Newnam, Inc., (LAN) to prepare an updated LUA, CIP, and calculated maximum assessable water and wastewater impact fees. A final draft of the resulting report is attached. Workshops and hearings have been held with the Capital Improvement Advisory Committee and a conversation has taken place with Staff and the Economic Development Corporation to garner input on the proposed amendments. Comments from the CIAC will be presented to City Council and input from others will also be shared.
Per the TLGC, prior to adoption of amended LUA, CIP, and Impact Fees, a Public Hearing must be held and notice of the Public Hearing must be published prior to 30 days in advance of the date of the hearing. The requested action of City Council is approval of the resolution setting the date for the public hearing adopting the amended LUA, CIP, and impact fees for March 18, 2025. If approved, Staff will arrange publication of the notice prior to February 13, 2025.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of Resolution 25-R-017.
