A. 
This chapter establishes the workforce development facilities impact fee. The impact fee is intended to recover from each eligible project, its reasonable share, as determined in accordance with Government Code Section 66000 et seq., of the cost for which the fee is established hereunder needed to serve the development on which the fee is imposed; to ensure implementation of, and consistency with, the city's general plan; and to protect the public health, safety, and welfare by ensuring that adequate facilities are constructed and made available to serve new development concurrent with the need.
B. 
The city council has determined that the fees established by this chapter shall be collected from applicants of development projects for the cost of public facilities and infrastructure improvements that serve or will benefit each applicable development in accordance with the city's adopted development impact fee study, as updated and readopted from time to time.
C. 
The fees imposed under this chapter are in addition to any other fees, dedications, construction requirements or other exactions imposed as a condition of approval for the development project, or under the provisions of any state or federal law, other provisions of this code, or city resolutions and policies.
D. 
Wherever used, terms describing types of facilities and/or infrastructure improvements shall have the meaning given to them in the city's general plan and/or capital improvement plan, as adopted and amended from time to time.
(Ord. 992 § 3, 2022)
Workforce development facilities impact fees shall be paid by applicants for residential, and nonresidential projects as set forth in this title and in amounts adopted by the city council by resolution from time to time. No building permit, nor occupancy permit, shall be issued for any such projects unless the fees specified in this chapter are timely paid. Fees collected pursuant to this chapter shall be deposited into a separate fund and used only for the purpose of construction or purchasing of buildings, land, vehicles, and workforce development equipment that are part of the system of workforce development facilities serving new development, provided for in the city's adopted capital improvement plan, as may be amended from time to time, and applicable nexus study.
(Ord. 992 § 3, 2022)
The amount of any workforce development impact fee may be amended annually or from time to time by a resolution of the city council in accordance with the procedures and based upon the findings set forth in Government Code Section 66000 et seq., for such fees. The city council may authorize by resolution annual adjustments to the impact fee to account for the escalation in costs due to inflation.
