PRESENT Swen Larson, Mayor Pat Gilbreath, Mayor Pro Tem William E. Cunningham, Councilmember Gilberto Gil, Councilmember Geni A. S . Banda, Councilmember Gary M. Luebbers, City Manager Daniel J. McHugh, City Attorney Lorrie Poyzer, City Clerk Marjie Pettus, Administrative Services Director Jeffrey L. Shaw, Community Development Director Steven M. Chapman, Finance Director Mel Enslow, Fire Chief John Habant, Fire Division Chief Gary G. Phelps, Municipal Utilities Director Lewis W. Nelson, Police Chief Ronald C. Mutter, Public Works Director John Andrews, Redlands Daily Facts Alisa Slaughter, The Sun ABSENT None Public Facility Development Impact Fees - Public Works Director Mutter presented an updated report on development impact fees for public facilities : Civic Center, City Yard, Library, Police Station, and Fire Stations . He explained, in detail, the methodology applied to determine the fee . It was noted the high density designation included in the new General Plan will be incorporated into these reports . Citrus Plaza Regional Mall - City Manager Luebbers reported that staff has evaluated our fees in response to the calculations and input offered by Majestic Realty for the Citrus Plaza Regional Mall at the workshop session on February 6 , 1996 . Staff did not attempt to critique the materials offered by Majestic, but affirmed the City' s basis and procedure, under the Redlands Municipal Code, for the development impact fees required. The City' s basis for calculation of our impact fees was presented with supporting documents . It was noted that Majestic ' s Adjourned regular meeting February 20, 1996 Page 1 method was not related to the city' s established basis for the consistent application of fees to all other developers; therefore, their results, previously presented, differ greatly from the City' s calculations . Regarding the $300, 000 . 00 "credit" requested by Majestic towards infrastructure they will construct, there is no consistency in this request . Costs in the development impact fees do not include costs of local mains or extensions required for development . In applying the fees to a specific development, the estimated fees are reviewed when the actual site and building plans and tenant improvement plans are received. Any documented input from the developer is welcomed regarding the specific demand on services, e .g. solid waste generated by the development . Thus, if the Target store is configured to reduced demand for disposal by recycling, and this can be documented, staff has offered to adjust the estimated demand and the fees proportionately. A similar procedure is available for calculating water/sewer usage . Mr. Luebbers made it very clear the fees presented by staff are not special for Majestic Realty. Gary Negin again urged the City Council to require this project to pay the full fees and annex to the City. Mrs . Theodora Banta expressed her fear for the future of Redlands based on the new General Plan and urged the City Council to reconsider it . Councilmember Cunningham moved to require Majestic Realty Company to pay the full and fair share of the fees as calculated by staff . Motion seconded by Councilmember Larson and motion carried with Councilmember Gilbreath and Gil voting NO. The City Council meeting briefly recessed at 10 : 15 A.M. and reconvened at 10 : 22 A.M. Redlands Fashion Mall - Mr. Harry Newman, Jr. , Chairman of Newman Properties, reviewed their site plans for the proposed Redlands Fashion Center to located between Lugonia Avenue and San Bernardino Avenue on California Street and introduced his development team.
