On July 11, 2023, the city council adopted the Moffett Park
Specific Plan in order to increase the development capacity of the
Moffett Park Specific Plan District. It is the intent and purpose
of the city council in adopting this chapter to provide in part for
the major traffic improvements that will be necessary as a result
of development within the Moffett Park Specific Plan District through
the adoption of a fee to be charged for development in the manner
specified by the Moffett Park Specific Plan Update Transportation
Impact Fee Nexus Study that was accepted by the city council on July
11, 2023. Based on the Moffett Park Specific Plan Update Transportation
Impact Fee Nexus Study, the city council finds that there is an essential
nexus and reasonable relationship between development within the Moffett
Park Plan District and the need for the specified transportation improvements.
