STAFF REPORT
At the meeting of the Mayor and Common Council held on Monday, February 5, 1996,
there was discussion on the possibility of deferring certain development fees in order to hopefully
spur housing growth and thereby the local economy. The direction was given to the City Attorney
to prepare appropriate ordinances and resolutions to allow for the deferral of the following fees:
Sewer Line Connection Fee
Storm Drain Construction Fund
Traffic Systems Fee
Verdemont Infrastructure Fee
Park Development Fee
{ The direction was also that the City should follow the pattern set by Rialto in the deferral
` of such fees.
In the proposal before you the fees are deferred only upon application of the property
owner. In Rialto the fees are deferred for eighteen (18) months or until the issuance of a
Certificate of Occupancy. However in San Bernardino there is no Certificate of Occupancy in
such residential housing, so the proposal is that the deferral would be for eighteen (18) months
or the release of utilities is issued, whichever occurs first. The owner of the property must sign
an agreement to pay the fees, must allow the City to place a lien on his or her property, must
agree to pay the fee out of escrow if the property is sold and allow the City to make a demand in
any such escrow. The proposal also provides that the fee to be paid will be the one in effect at
the time of payment.
