This article may be used to require the payment of fees as a condition of the approval of a final map or as a condition of issuing a building permit for the purposes of defraying the actual or estimated cost of constructing bridges over waterways, railways, free-ways, or canyons or constructing major thoroughfares.
('66 Code, § 9-4.1903) (Ord. 571-C-S, passed 2-28-84)
This article may be used where the Circulation Element of the General Plan identifies railways, freeways, streams, canyons, waterways, or canals for which bridge crossings are required. The Circulation Element requiring such bridge crossings shall have been adopted for at least 30 days prior to the filing of a map or application for a building permit.
('66 Code, § 9-4.1904) (Ord. 571-C-S, passed 2-28-84)
In each area requiring the payment of fees for bridge crossings pursuant to this article, the City Engineer shall propose the formation of a bridge benefit district. The Council shall adopt for each such area a resolution of intention to establish such a benefit district. The resolution of intention shall reference the boundaries of the benefitted district and shall direct the engineer of the work to prepare a report regarding the proposed costs and the proposed collection of fees.
('66 Code, § 9-4.1905) (Ord. 571-C-S, passed 2-28-84)
Upon the receipt of the report of the engineer, the Council shall set a public hearing for each area benefitted. Notice shall be given pursuant to Cal. Gov't Code § 65905. In addition to the requirements of said Cal. Gov't Code § 65905, such notice shall contain preliminary information related to the boundaries of the area of benefit, the estimated costs, and the method of fee apportionment. The area of benefit may include land or improvements in addition to the land or improvements which are the subject of any map or building permit application considered at such proceeding.
('66 Code, § 9-4.1906) (Ord. 571-C-S, passed 2-28-84)
At such public hearing, the Council, by resolution, shall establish the boundaries of the area of benefit, the actual or estimated costs, and a fair method of the allocation of costs to the area of benefit and fee apportionment. The method of fee apportion-ment, in the case of major thoroughfares, shall not provide for higher fees on land which abuts the proposed improvement, except where the abutting property is provided direct usable access to the major thoroughfare. A certified copy of the resolution shall be recorded with the County Recorder. Such fees shall be applicable to all property within the area of benefit and shall be payable as a condition of the approval of a final map or as a condition of issuing a building permit for such property or portions thereof. Where the area of benefit includes lands not subject to the payment of fees, the Council shall make provision for the payment of the share of improve-ment costs apportioned to such land from other sources.
('66 Code, § 9-4.1907) (Ord. 571-C-S, passed 2-28-84)
The payment of fees shall not be required unless the major thoroughfares are in addition to, or a reconstruction of, any existing major thoroughfares serving the area at the time of the adoption of the boundaries of the area of benefit.
('66 Code, § 9-4.1908) (Ord. 571-C-S, passed 2-28-84)
The payment of fees shall not be required unless the planned bridge facility is an original bridge serving the area or an addition to an existing bridge facility serving the area at the time of the adoption of the boundaries of the area of benefit. Such fees shall not be expended to reimburse the cost of existing bridge facility construction.
('66 Code, § 9-4.1909) (Ord. 571-C-S, passed 2-28-84)
