CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING AGENDA PACKET

procedure set forth in this section and shall be established and adjusted by resolution of the city council and set forth in the master fee schedule (on file in the office of the city clerk) as follows: A. Establishment of the Rate. The city council shall establish the rate of the transportation development fee by dividing the net transportation improvement costs attributable to new growth by the total additional peak hour trips generated by future growth. The city council may review and make adjustments to the net transportation improvement costs and peak hour trips as necessary. The net transportation improvements and total peak hour trips shall be determined as follows: 1. Net Transportation Improvement Costs. a. The city council shall determine the transportation improvements which are necessary to implement the circulation element of the general plan and reduce the adverse impacts caused by the increased traffic volume generated by future growth. For purposes of determining the amount of the net transportation improvement costs, the city council shall not include the cost of transportation improvements required directly of development pursuant to Titles 18, 19, and 20 of this code. Such direct development requirements, improvements, and dedications in addition to or in lieu thereof, shall continue to be imposed in accordance with Titles 18, 19 and 20 of this code, as appropriate, in addition to the transportation development fees imposed pursuant to this chapter. In addition, the city council shall take into account the similarly situated transportation improvements provided and funded by the North Pleasanton Improvement District #3 ("NPID-3") in determining the net transportation improvements requiring funding, and the rate of the fee for properties within the NPID-3. b. The city council shall make a reasonable estimate of the total costs necessary to construct, renovate, or provide the transportation improvements. c. The city council shall estimate the current and anticipated funding available to satisfy the costs of constructing and implementing the transportation improvements. In determining the amount of funding available, the city council shall include funding from other governmental entities to the extent the receipt by the city of such funding is reasonable, and city revenues appropriated for construction or implementation or transportation improvements, if any. d. The city council shall attribute the need for the transportation improvements between new development and existing development. e. The city council shall determine the difference, if any, between the estimated costs of the construction and implementation of the transportation improvements and the estimated funding available therefor. The extent to which the cost of such construction and implementation exceeds the funds available, or expected to be available, therefor shall be the "net transportation improvement costs." 2. Total Peak Hour Trips. a. The total gross square footage or dwelling unit count, as the case may be, of potential new development within each land use category as projected to occur during the period of build-out under the general plan shall be multiplied by the peak hour rate for each land use category established pursuant to Section 3.26.020 Page 184 of 893
