A. Supplemental Size and Capacity.
1. The subdivider may be required to install improvements for the benefit of the subdivision which may contain supplemental capacity, number, or size for the benefit of property not within the subdivision as a condition precedent to the approval of a subdivision or parcel map and thereafter to dedicate the improvements to the public.
2. When the supplemental capacity, number, or size is solely for the benefit of property not within the subdivision, the city shall enter into an agreement with the subdivider to reimburse the subdivider for that portion of the cost of the improvements equal to the difference between the amount it would have cost the subdivider to install the improvements to serve the subdivision only and the actual cost of the improvements in compliance with the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act.

(Ord. 182 § 2 (part), 1997)
A. Public Hearing Required. A charge, area of benefit, or local benefit district shall not be established unless and until a public hearing is held and the council finds that the fee or charge and the area of benefit or local benefit district is reasonably related to the cost of the supplemental improvements and the actual ultimate beneficiaries.
B. Notice of Hearing. In addition to the notice required by state law (Government Code Section 66451.3), written notice of the hearing shall be given to the subdivider and to those who own property within the proposed area of benefit as shown on the latest equalized assessment roll, and the potential users of the supple-mental improvements insofar as they can be identified at the time.

The city may enter into reimbursement agreements with a subdivider who constructs the facilities, bridges, or thoroughfares and the fee(s) collected by the city may be utilized to reimburse the subdivider. Refer to Chapter 16.36 (Public Facilities/Infrastructure) for specific requirements.
