§ 17.01.010 PURPOSE AND INTENT.
   This chapter establishes the program for the adoption and administration of development impact fees. It is the intent of the city to require every person who develops land to mitigate the impacts of that development on the city's public facilities. The city will therefore require developers to pay a development impact fee that will assist in meeting the demand for public facilities caused by development. The public facilities will be constructed in accordance with a capital improvement plan adopted by resolution of the City Council. The amount of the development impact fees collected pursuant to this chapter shall be limited to the cost of public facilities attributable to new development. The amount of the development impact fees collected shall not include the cost of public facilities that serve existing development.
