Title
Consider and take action on an ordinance approving the adoption of the Land Use Assumption and Capital Improvements Plan for which a roadway capital recovery fee may be imposed (Director of Engineering)
Staff requests a first and final reading of ordinance
Background:
This ordinance being requested is part of the roadway capital recovery fee creation process. According to Chapter 395 of the Texas Local Government Code (“Chapter 395”), the City Council must adopt the land use assumptions and capital improvements plan. As per the Texas Code, the capital recovery fee can only be assessed based on land use and capital improvements over the next 10 years. A public hearing will be held tonight for any additional public input. The Capital Improvements Advisory Committee (CIAC) convened on July 16, 2016. The purpose of the meeting was to receive a briefing regarding potential impact fees for roadways in League City.
According to Chapter 395, the CIAC assisted in the review and recommendation of land use assumptions and capital improvements plans for the consideration of potential roadway impact fees by the City Council. The CIAC received a presentation regarding the land use assumptions and proposed capital improvement projects in League City over the next 10-year period.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed ordinance for the adoption of the land use assumptions and capital improvements plan for the roadway capital recovery fee study. When this study is completed, a second Public Hearing will be held, and the study will be presented to the City Council for consideration of imposing roadway capital recovery fees in the City.
Staff expects this to be presented within the first quarter of the 2019 calendar year.
