The Board of Supervisors finds as follows:
(A) The increasing volume of construction of residences and non-residential buildings continues to generate a greater demand for law enforcement facilities and services.
(B) In order to provide law enforcement facilities and services required by new development, a law enforcement impact fee is necessary.
(C) The fee shall be imposed on both residential and non-residential development, since these types of developments both place burdens on law enforcement facilities and services. Law enforcement includes, without limitation, the Sheriff’s Office, Probation Department, District Attorney, County Counsel, Planning and Building, Health Department and other departments to the extent each department is involved in the enforcement of state laws and county ordinances.
