Attachment B indicates the number of developments that utilized the previous fee deferral program. There has been an interest in the development community to reinstate this fee deferral program. Based on this interest, the appropriate ordinance and resolution are being proposed for your consideration By amending the expiration date of this ordinance we hope to continue to spur housing growth and thereby the local economy.
