A. The purpose of the traffic impact mitigation fee is to implement the City's general plan growth management element, to ensure that new growth pays its share of regional traffic mitigation and to implement the City's circulation/transportation general plan element to improve, maintain and regulate the network of highways, and streets, to ensure their safe and efficient use. Adoption of a traffic impact mitigation fee by the City is mandated by Measure "M," the county-wide traffic improvement and growth management plan adopted by the voters on November 6, 1990 in order for the City to remain eligible to receive one-half cent sales tax dollars for transportation improvements.
B. The City Council has determined that there is a reasonable relationship between new and/or expanded land uses in the city and needed traffic improvements and that there is a reasonable relationship between the cost of the needed traffic improvements and the new or expanded land uses as identified in the City's traffic impact mitigation fee analysis.
