CC 2020-02-11_08b Annual Adjustment of Development Impact FeesMEMORANDUM
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: NICOLE VALENTINE, ACCOUNTING MANAGER
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF ANNUAL ADJUSTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT
IMPACT FEES
DATE: FEBRUARY 11, 2020
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
Adoption of a resolution approving the annual adjustment of Development Impact Fees.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
Adoption of the Resolution will increase the Development Impact Fees charged for new
development projects in 2020. The revenue generated from this increase is dependent
on the amount of new development in the community during the coming year.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council adopt a Resolution approving the annual adjustment
to the City’s Development Impact Fees based on changes in the Engineering News
Record (ENR) Construction Cost Index (CCI).
BACKGROUND:
Section 3.36.040 of the Arroyo Grande Municipal Code states that the fees shall be adopted
by resolution and shall be adjusted each year in accordance with the percentage increase
based on changes in the annual average Engineering News Record (ENR) Construction
Cost Index (CCI).
At the January 28, 2020 City Council meeting, Mayor Ray Russom requested additional
information regarding Development Impact Fees received in FY 2017-18 and FY 2018-
19 for low income and very low income residential dwelling units. As a result, the Council
voted to continue the item to the next regular meeting.
Upon review, it was determined that the City did not collect any low income or very low
income residential dwelling unit Development Impact Fees during these periods.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
The calculation shown below provides documentation that a 1.98% increase in the ENR
CCI warrants an adjustment in the City’s Development Impact Fees.

The calculation adjusts the fees as follows:
Factor = 1 + Current Index – Base Index for Date of Adoption
Base Index for Date of Adoption
The calculation is as follows:
1.0198 = 1 + 11,281 – 11,062
11,062
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for City Council consideration:
1. Adopt the Resolution;
2. Do not adopt the Resolution and request further information; or
3. Provide direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
By approving the recommended fees, the City will be able to recover the estimated cost
of providing services to new development.
DISADVANTAGES:
The only disadvantage identified in relation to this recommendation is an increased cost
to new development.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
No environmental review is required for this item.
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION AND COMMENTS:
The Agenda was posted at City Hall and on the City’s website in accordance with
Government Code Section 54954.2.
