Presentation on updated land use assumptions and capital improvements plan as required by Chapter 395 of the Texas Local Government Code, prior to the re-evaluation of the existing impact fee structure for water and wastewater services. (All Districts)

1. 2014 Updated Land Use
Assumptions
City Council Meeting
Tuesday, December 17, 2013

2. Background
- On October 14, 2008, City Staff presented the Annexation
Assessment and Impact Fee Report to the City Council
- On October 28, 2008, the City Council passed an ordinance to
amend Title 2 (Administration and Personnel) to establish the
Capital Improvements Advisory Committee
- On March 24, 2009, the City Council approved a resolution
adopting land use assumptions and a capital improvements plan
under which impact fees would be imposed to finance water and
wastewater capital improvements and facility expansion costs
attributable to projected new development in three service areas
(Northeast, Westside, and Eastside)
- On May 12, 2009, the City Council passed ordinance 017113
adopting impact fees for water and wastewater facilities

3. Impact Fees
- "Impact fee" means a charge or assessment imposed by a political
subdivision against new development in order to generate
revenue for funding or recouping the costs of capital
improvements or facility expansions necessitated by and
attributable to the new development.
- Chapter 395 of the Texas Local Government Code permits the use
of impact fees to finance capital improvement and facility
expansion costs attributable to projected new development within
identified service areas located in the corporate boundaries or
extraterritorial jurisdiction of a political subdivision.
- The Land Use Assumptions Report is used in the development of
the Capital Improvements Pan and ultimately, the adoption of an
impact fee structure

4. Periodic Update of Land Use Assumptions and
Capital Improvements Plan Required
- Prior to re-evaluating the existing impact fee structure, Chapter 395
of the Texas Local Government Code states that the City must
update its land use assumptions and capital improvements plan at
least every five years to ensure reasonable future growth estimates
- The initial five-year period began on the day the City Council
adopted the capital improvements plan on March 24th, 2009
- The Land Use Assumptions Technical Report provides with the
revised land use assumptions and the analysis conducted, as a joint
effort between the City of El Paso’s City Development Department
and the El Paso Water Utilities, to be used throughout this update
