A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO
AMENDING WATER IMPACT FEES
WHEREAS, Chapter 4.20.140 of the City of San Luis Obispo Municipal Code
establishes water connection fees, hereinafter referred to as impact fees, and provides for the
setting of fee amounts and other matters by resolution of the Council; and
WHEREAS, the Council has adopted an Urban Water Management Plan which
identifies needed improvements to the City's water system; and
WHEREAS, Appendix VII of this plan sets forth a financing strategy for funding these
improvements and includes a comprehensive water impact fee analysis which analyzes the
relationship between new development and the cost of needed water system improvements
(hereinafter referred to as "impact fee analysis ").
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City 'of San Luis
Obispo that:
A. FINDINGS
1. The purpose of water impact fees is to protect the public health, safety, and
general welfare by providing adequate water supply, treatment, and distribution facilities to
meet the needs of new development and to mitigate the impacts of new development on the
City's water system.
2. Water impact fees collected pursuant to this resolution shall be used only to pay
for facilities and improvements identified in the impact fee analysis and shall not be in lieu of
any other fee or tax as may be required by this code.
3. There is a reasonable relationship between the types of development on which
the impact fees are imposed and the use of the impact fees and the need for the facilities and
improvements. All new development requires water supply, treatment, and distribution
facilities to protect the public health and safety.
4. There is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the impact fees and the
costs of the facilities and improvements attributable to the development on which the impact
fees are imposed. The estimated costs of facilities and improvements, including financing
costs, to be paid for by water impact fees is shown in the impact fee analysis. Those costs
have been allocated to new development on the basis of dwelling unit type (residential) or
water meter size (non - residential), which is reasonably related to the water demand generated
by a development project.

B. COST ESTIMATES
At any time that the actual or estimated costs of facilities identified in the impact fee
analysis changes, the Finance Director shall review the impact fees and determine whether the
change affects the amount of the impact fees. If the impact fees are significantly affected, the
Finance Director shall, within thirty (30) days, recommend to the Council a revised fee for
their consideration.
C. AMOUNT OF IMPACT FEES
Effective February 1, 1995, water impact fees shall be in the amounts set forth in
Exhibit A attached hereto. Unless otherwise acted upon by the Council, the amount of the fees
will automatically be adjusted on July 1, 1995 and on July 1 of each subsequent year by the
annual percentage change in the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics consumer price index for all
urban consumers (CPI -U), all- cities average for the prior calendar year. Since the facilities and
improvements for which connection fees are charged will be financed through bonds or other
form of debt, the annual adjustments are indexed to consumer .prices rather than construction
costs.
D. TIME OF PAYMENT
1. Water impact fees for any development project or portion thereof shall be
payable prior to issuance of building permits required for that development, and shall be
collected by the Building Official. Under Government Code Section 66007(b), the City is
authorized to collect the fees at the time of building permit issuance because the fees are for
public facilities and improvements for which an account has been established and funds
appropriated; and for which the City has adopted a proposed construction schedule; or the fees
are to reimburse the City for expenditures previously made.
2. For any development project or portion thereof, water impact fees shall be
assessed at the time of application and remain valid for as long as the application is proceeding
through valid processing as per the Uniform Administrative Code.
E. EXEMPTIONS
1. Fire Protection. Upgrading of existing water services and /or meters for the sole
purpose of providing new or improved fire protection facilities shall be exempt from any water
impact fee provided for in this resolution.
2. Landscape Irrigation. Any water services and/or meters installed solely for
landscape irrigation purposes for properties with existing water service shall be exempt from
any water impact fees provided for in this resolution. However, if an increase in water demand
is required, the Utilities Director shall impose a water impact fee.
n

water impact fee account as required by Government Code Section 66006. Within sixty (60)
days of the close of each fiscal year, the Finance Director shall make available to the public
an accounting of water impact fee revenues and related expenditures, and the City Council shall
