Since this program has been successful, the county should keep its SHIP <br />Program impact fee assistance strategy for income-qualified households. The County's <br />new impact fee waiver categories for single -family and multifamily homes of less than <br />1,500 square feet for income-eligible households should also be maintained and evaluated <br />in future years to determine their overall utilization and whether or not adjustments should <br />be made to the eligible categories. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />The county should maintain Housing Element Policy 4.3 and Policy 4.4 regarding <br />financing of impact fees, payment of impact, fees, and payment of water and wastewater <br />capacity charges for income-eligible households through SHIP funds. The County should <br />also maintain its newly adopted impact fee waiver and reductions under Title X of the <br />Indian River County Code for certain single -family and multifamily housing units occupied <br />by households with incomes of less than 80% of AMI, and the County should continue to <br />apply for other funding sources (such as CDBGs) to subsidize impact fees and utility <br />capacity charges. <br />BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ACTION: <br />Board of County is Approvat,pfN .:,AHAC-Recommendation <br />Yes [ ] ❑ <br />9 �Q <br />
