(A) The public facilities subject to the provisions of this chapter are necessary for the public health, safety and general welfare;
(B) New growth and development within the town has an impact on the availability and capacity of public facilities, the capacity of which can be maintained if development is approved consistent with adopted level of service standards;
(C) The town has prepared and adopted a Capital Improvements Program to provide the public facilities needed to accommodate reasonable rates of growth and development, which CIP will be reviewed and updated if necessary annually to reflect changes in the town's growth rate, available financial resources, and other relevant factors;
(D) The level of service standards adopted for each public facility are necessary for the protection of the public health, safety and welfare, and will not unduly inhibit new growth and development within the town; and
