3. As to the City Facilities Impact Fees, Open Space Acquisition Fee, Storm Drainage
Fees and Traffic Impact Fee Funds, the City Council finds that:
a. The purpose to which each fee is to be put is identified generally in Exhibit A
of the Report, and more specifically in the City of Petaluma Mitigation Fee
Report (Sinclair & Associates, May 8, 2008) and the Development Impact Fee
Calculation and Nexus Report for the City of Petaluma, California and Master
Facilities Plan for the City of Petaluma, California (both, Revenue & Cost
Specialists, L.L.C., August, 2003), as well as the "City of Petaluma Mitigation
Fee Act Nexus Report and Quimby Act In -Lieu Report" prepared by Municipal
Resource Group and the "Traffic Mitigation Fee Program Update" prepared by
Fehr & Peers (both, August, 20t2) (collectively, the "Nexus Studies"), Copies
of the Nexus Studies are available for inspection at the offices of the City
Clerk.
b. There is a reasonable relationship between each fee and the purpose for which
it is charged, as more fully set forth in and demonstrated by the Nexus Studies.
C. The remainder of funds needed to construct the public improvements identified
in the Nexus Studies related to each fee will be collected from future
development impact fees through 2025, the life of the City of Petaluma
General Plan 2025, and from other sources as identified in the Nexus Studies
and the City's adopted Capital Improvement Program.
d. Future sources and amounts of funding anticipated to complete the financing of
specific future capital projects are identified and deposited into the appropriate
account as part of the City's Capital Improvement Program budget cycle. No
individual development impact fee fund has collected sufficient funds to
construct all improvements covered by that fund as described in the Nexus
Study.
Under the power and authority conferred upon this Council by the Charter of said City.
