Existing City fee schedule includes Warehouse ($0.95/sq.ft.), Light Manufacturing <br />($0.95), and Research & Development ($2.38 sq. ft) land use categories. These fees are <br />proposed to be consolidated into a single “Industrial” land use category. <br /> <br />As shown in Table 2, below, the residential fees include a per square foot charge applicable to <br />most units (between 824 square feet - 4,500 square feet for single-family and between 417 <br />square feet - 1,600 square feet for multi-family). Fees are capped on a per unit basis with a <br />ceiling and floor for large and small projects, respectively, due to nexus considerations (i.e., it <br />is more difficult to demonstrate that units above or below a certain size have proportionally <br />higher / lower impacts). <br /> <br />Table 2: Maximum Capital Facilities and Transportation Fee (Combined), Per Square <br />Foot <br />Unit Type Fee per Square Foot <br />$20.10 per square foot (Units 824-4,500 <br />square feet) <br />Minimum Fee (Units 824 square feet or less: <br />$16,567 <br />Single-Family <br />Maximum Fee: Units 4,500 square feet or <br />more: $90,437 <br />$35.95 per square foot <br />Minimum Fee (Units 417 sq.ft or less): <br />$14,982 per unit <br />Multi-Family <br />Maximum Fee (Units 1,600 square feet or <br />more): $57,517 per unit <br /> <br />Commercial Linkage Fee for Affordable Housing <br />The Commercial Linkage Fee represents the fee charged to commercial projects (i.e., office, <br />retail, industrial developments) to offset or mitigate the demand they generate for new <br />affordable units. <br /> <br />EPS’ analysis, contained in Chapter 5 of the study, uses projections of the estimated worker <br />households at different affordability levels associated with new development, based on the <br />occupational category and wage distribution of those households. Then the study estimates <br />the “affordability gap” between market-rate units to accommodate those households, and the <br />subsidy necessary to provide housing at affordability commensurate with those households’ <br />needs. The aggregate subsidy is divided among the projected square footage of new non- <br />residential development, to determine the commercial linkage fee on a per square foot basis. <br />The maximum fee amounts resulting from this calculation are summarized in Table 3, below. <br /> <br />Page 211 of 893
