As such, staff recommends it is in the best interest of the City to enter into an agreement with a professional Development Impact Fee Calculation firm to provide services required to evaluate implementation of new non-utility Impact Fees to meet the demands placed on the City's infrastructure by development projects. The non-utility Development Impact Fees to be evaluated and considered under this agreement will include review and update of Park Impact Fee, new Police Impact Fee, new Fire Impact Fee, new General Services Impact Fee, new Transportation and Mobility Impact Fee and new Affordable Housing Impact Fee.
