A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDLANDS
AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 6561 RELATING TO
TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT FEES
Whereas, the City Council of the City of Redlands ("this City Council") engaged the
services of a consultant to prepare a comprehensive Public Facilities Fee Program to determine
the maximum justified fees to impose on new development to ensure payment of the capital costs
of necessary public facilities to serve such new development; and
Whereas, as part of that Public Facilities Fees Program, a report was prepared entitled
"City if Redlands Transportation Facilities Fee Study," dated November, 2006, which
summarized an analysis of the need for transportation facilities and capital improvements to
support new development within the City; and
Whereas, on December lq, 2006, and based upon the Transportation Facilities Fee Study,
this City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2652 to establish a Transportation Improvement Fee
Program to implement the City's General Plan to ensure that streets, street improvements, and
traffic signal improvements and facilities, which meet City standards, are available concurrent
with the need caused by new development in the City; and
Whereas, pursuant to Ordinance No. 2652, this City Council subsequently adopted
Resolution No. 6561 to establish the specific amount of the Transportation Improvement Fee;
and
Whereas, by its provisions, Resolution No. 6561 is scheduled to take effect on February
20, 2007, concurrent with the effective date of Ordinance No. 2652; and
Whereas, since the date of adoption of Resolution No. 6561, City staff has undertaken
further review of the assumptions contained in the Transportation Facilities Fee Study, and the
improvements described therein, and has determined that several of the assumptions made and
the improvements described in the Transportation Facilities Fee Study need refinement; and
Whereas, City staff has recommended to this City Council that it is in the best interests of
the City to delay implementation of the Transportation Improvement Fee to permit the City's
consultant to reevaluate and refine the assumptions and description of improvements contained
in the Transportation Facilities Fee Study;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Redlands as
follows;
Section 1. Notwithstanding Section 2 of Resolution No. 6561 which provides that such
resolution shall take effect on the effective date of Ordinance No. 2652 (February 20, 2007), this
City Council hereby amends Resolution No. 6561 to suspend its effective date to allow the City's
DJM\RESO%573 amending Transportation Fee
consultant to reevaluate and refine the assumptions and improvement descriptions contained in
the Transportation Facilities Fee Study.
Section 2. This City Council further determines that Resolution No. 6561 shall not take
effect unless and until a revised Transportation Facilities Fee Study is presented to this City
Council and a subsequent resolution establishing the specific amount of the Transportation
Improvement Fee justified by such study is approved in accordance with law by this City
Council.
Section 3. That the City's present Street Improvement Fees and Traffic Signalization
Fees, which were previously identified in Chapters 3.54 and 3.58 of the Redlands Municipal
Code and are now identified below in this Resolution as provided for by Ordinance No. 2652,
shall remain in effect front and. after the effective date of Ordinance No. 2652:
Fee Area Street Improvement Fees Traffic Signalization Fees
Fee per trip generated Fee.per tri venerated
East Valley 75.36 $ 6.96
Central $ 166.23 $ 27.86
North $ 186.72 $ 26.14
South S 1.80.08 $ 34.35
Canyon S 299.19 $ 14.22
Crafton S 227.78 $ 54.25
Section 4. This City Council further determines that the approval of this Resolution is
exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) which provides that CEQA applies only to projects which
have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. This City Council finds
that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the approval of this Resolution,
which maintains the rate of existing street improvement and traffic signalization fees, may have a
significant effect on the environment.
