The Board reviewed the following memo dated 9/2/88: <br />TO: William G. Collins, II DATEseptember 2, 1988 FILE: <br />Acting County Administrator <br />SUBJECT: REQUEST TO APPROVE PRO- <br />POSED REVISION TO THE <br />FAIR SHARE ROADWAY <br />IMPROVEMENTS ORDINANCE <br />James W. Davis, P.E.. <br />Public Works Directof <br />FROM: Robert M. Keating, AIC "'KEFERENCES: <br />Director <br />Community Development Department <br />It is requested that the information herein presented be given <br />formal consideration by the Boa;d of County Commissioners at <br />their regular meeting of September 13, 1988. <br />DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS <br />On July 12, 1988, the Board of County Commissioners initially <br />considered revisions to the County's traffic impact fee <br />ordinance. At that time, the Board tabled the proposed ordinance <br />and directed the staff to hold a public workshop on. the <br />recommended fee increases. Subsequently, the staff held a <br />workshop, and the proposed ordinance was rescheduled for action <br />at the August 23, 1988 Board meeting. Because of concern by the <br />City of Vero Beach, the Board on August 23rd again tabled action <br />on the, proposed ordinance revisions and directed staff to <br />coordinate with the City of Vero Beach regarding their concerns. <br />Since the August 23 meeting, the staff has coordinated with the <br />City of Vero Beach and reviewed the trip generation study <br />prepared by the staff. Based upon that analysis, the staff <br />revised several trip rates, incorporated the new rates in the <br />impact fee model, and produced an updated set of traffic impact <br />fees. Those new fees have been incorporated into the proposed <br />impact fee ordinance amendment. The proposed amendment is <br />attached to this agenda item. <br />ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS: <br />After consultation with the City of Vero Beach, the staff <br />reanalyzed the trip generation study previously conducted by the <br />staff. This reanalysis involved deleting the high and low <br />studies from the sample, removing a study having mixed uses, and <br />using a different averaging method. In the process of preparing <br />this reanalysis, the staff determined that the limited number of <br />surveyed developments on the island did not warrant establishing <br />a separate trip rate for island developments. Consequently, the <br />staff developed countywide trip rate averages for both <br />single-family and multi -family residential uses. <br />31 <br />SEP 13 1988 1 _164 <br />A <br />
