BACKGROUND: On April 19, 2004, Resolution No. 2004-107 was adopted, approving form of Mitigation Agreement in the Verdemont Fire Station Service Area and on June 21, 2004, Resolution 2004- 210 was adopted, establishing Community Facilities District, known as CFD 1033. This was in anticipation of funding a portion of the ongoing operation and maintenance costs for the fire station as a CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act) impact mitigation. Initially, the district boundary included two tracts on the northeast and northwest corners of Palm Avenue and Irvington Avenue, and a 90 acre parcel of land, formerly known as the "Bice" property, located northwest of Little League Drive and the 1-215 Freeway, which is currently owned by the Redevelopment Agency. In 2005, the Verdemont Fire Station, located on Palm Avenue, north of Kendall Drive, was completed. It was also determined that as development occurs in the Verdemont area, and more specifically in the Verdemont Fire Station Service Area, developers/property owners would be required to pay a fair share cost of the operation and maintenance costs of the fire station. The developer/property owner may pay all of the fees at once at the time of development, referred to as the "In-Lieu Fee", or may elect to annex into the CFD and have the costs spread over the life of the CFD, which is for 30 years. The fair share costs were established as follows: In-Lieu Fee OR Annual assessment if paid through the CFD • Residential $6,349.88 per lot $350.00 per lot • Commercial, Industrial, other $44,358.47 per acre $2,445 per acre The above fees are subject to an annual increase of 2% beginning July 1, 2005. Current fees (FY 2006/2007) are as follows: In-Lieu Fee OR Annual assessment if paid through the CFD • Residential $6,606.42 per lot $364.14 per lot • Commercial, Industrial, other $46,150.55 per acre $2,543.78 per acre There are three separate developments submitted under this item that are required to execute a Funding and Mitigation Agreement as a condition of development. They have all indicated their intent to annex into the CFD rather than pay the In-Lieu fee. The annexation into the CFD will commence once the Agreements are executed and recorded. The developments are as follows: 1) Industrial Parkway, LLC currently has a development in process that is subject to fire station fees as set forth in conditions of approval for Development Permit Type 11 No. 04-38. The project is located on the southwesterly side of Industrial Parkway, southeasterly of Palm Avenue and consists of a 844,150 square foot warehouse facility on 35.87 acres. Based on the fair share costs listed above, the developer may pay a one time In-Lieu Fee of$1,655,420.20, or annex into the CFD, with an initial annual assessment of$91,245.39. 2) SP University DC, LLC, currently has a development in process that is subject to fire station fees as set forth in conditions of approval for Development Permit Type 11 No. 04-21. The project is located on the northeasterly side of Industrial Parkway, southeasterly of Palm Avenue and consists of a 250,000 square foot warehouse facility on 12 acres. Based on the fair share costs listed above, the developer may pay a one time In-Lieu Fee of$553,806.60, or annex into the CFD, with an initial annual assessment of$30,525.36. 3) Delgado Developers, Inc., currently has a development in process that is subject to fire station fees as set forth in conditions of approval for Subdivision No. 05-09. The project is located on the easterly side of Olive Avenue, southerly of Belmont Avenue, and consists of a 14 single family lots on 4.64 acres. Based on the fair share costs listed above, the developer may pay a one time In-Lieu Fee of $92,489.88, or annex into the CFD, with an initial annual assessment of$364.14 per lot, or a total of$5,097.96 for the tract. The above amounts are for FY 2006/2007 and increase by 2% after July 1, 2007. Actual assessments will commence once building permits are issued. Each development is under separate ownership, but no building permits (residential development) or Certificates of Occupancy (industrial development) will be issued until either the fees are paid or the annexation process is complete. The attached resolutions authorizes and directs the execution of a Funding and Mitigation Agreement for the development. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Initial total annual assessment of $126,869.71, with annual increase of 2% each year. All fees collected are to be used for funding a portion of the operation and maintenance costs of the Verdemont Fire Station.
