16.23.090 Community (public use) meeting facilities—Findings.
   The City Council finds as follows:
   (A)   The development of residential property in the affected territory will create a need for increased community (public use) meeting facilities. As a result, additional community (public use) meeting facilities will be needed to maintain the current level of service.
   (B)   Pursuant to Article 11, § 7 of the California Constitution, the city is empowered to enact measures that protect the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens.
   (C)   The provision of community (public use) meeting facilities is identified in the Community (Public Use) Meeting Facilities section of the Master Facility Plan and is necessary to provide adequate community (public use) meeting facilities within the city.
   (D)   The development impact fee report and the addendum thereto describe in detail the current city standard for number of community (public use) meeting facilities per person; the number of persons an average single-family, multiple-family or mobile home park residence generates, the community (public use) meeting facilities required to service new development, and estimates of the costs of community (public use) meeting facilities to maintain the current level of service.
   (E)   The entire affected territory will derive benefit from the community (public use) meeting facilities and should be assessed per the provisions of this chapter and pay a fair share of the cost thereof based on the benefit derived therefrom.
   (F)   After consideration of the development impact fee report, the addendum thereto and testimony at this public hearing, the City Council hereby approves the development impact fee report and the addendum thereto, and based thereon finds that new development in the affected territory will create needs for community (public use) meeting facilities that the acquisition of the public improvements funded by this chapter will meet.
   (G)   The City Council also finds that the costs of community (public use) meeting facilities funded by this chapter are apportioned relative to the anticipated impacts created by development within the affected territory, and that the fees are fairly apportioned on individual dwelling units throughout the affected territory on the basis of benefits conferred on property proposed for development and the need for such facilities created by the proposed development.
   (H)   The facts and evidence establish that there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the described public facilities and the needs created by the types of development on which the fee will be imposed, and that there is a reasonable relationship between the fee's use and the types of development for which the fee is charged. This reasonable relationship is described in more detail in the development impact fee report and the addendum thereto.
   (I)   The City Council also finds that the cost estimates set forth in the development impact fee report are reasonable and will not exceed the reasonably estimated total of these costs.
   (J)   The community (public use) meeting facilities fees collected pursuant to this chapter shall be used only to finance additions to the community (public use) meeting facilities described or identified in the Community (Public Use) Meeting Facilities section of the Master Facility Plan.
