ORDINANCE NO. 20201210-062 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CITY CODE CHAPTER 25- 6 ESTABLISHING A STREET IMPACT FEE PROGRAM. BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: PART 1. FINDINGS. The City Council makes the following findings in support o f this ordinance: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) Texas Local Government Code Chapter 395 ("Chapter 395") authorizes the City to offset the impacts of new development on the City's roadway network by imposing street impact fees by service area within city limits. The City has adopted land use assumptions by service area that project anticipated residential and employment growth from new development within each delineated service area over a ten-year period, in accordance with the methodology prescribed by Chapter 395. The City has prepared and adopted a roadway capacity plan that identifies improvements necessary to serve new development within each capital service area over a ten-year period, in accordance with the methodology prescribed by Chapter 395. The City has prepared and adopted a Transportation Plan that addresses all transportation needs within the City and that contains strategies for reducing the need for new capital improvements for the roadway system in the future by shifting demand to other modes of transportation. The Transportation Plan contains strategies for funding transportation needs. Street impact fees for a new development are calculated according to the trip generation rate and trip length for the new development. Street impact fees for a new development are calculated according to the standardized trip generation rate and trip length within the service area for the new development. Overall vehicular demand for roadway improvements generated by a new development can be reduced from that projected in the roadway capacity plan Page 1 of 14 by employing transportation demand management strategies recognized by the professional transportation engineering and planning fields. (9) It is appropriate to reduce street impact fees for applied measures that result in reduction in overall vehicular demand for a new development. (10) The strategies for reduction in overall vehicular demand from a new development include the following: (a) (b) (c) internal development; trip capture resulting from mixed land uses within a new proximity ofa development to existing and planned transit facilities that facilitate use of transit as an alternative to vehicular transportation; and reduction in the number of parking spaces and other parking management techniques within a new development that discourage demand for …
