Financ aI Impact: There will be no impact to the general Fund. The recommended action would lead to an increase in funding for specified transportation projects. The funds collected will be deposited in a trust fund account specific to the improvements to be funded by the TVTDF Area of Benefit. III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background: The Tri-Valley Transportation Council(TVTC)includes Contra Costa and Alameda counties, and the cities of Danville, San Ramon, Dublin, Pleasanton and Livermore. The TVTC was formed to address transportations issues of common interest. In 1998,the TVTC unanimously recommended to its member jurisdictions the adoption of a uniform development fee, known as the TVTDF. All participating jurisdictions supported this recommendation by adopting ordinances establishing uniform development fees in the Tri-Valley area dedicated to specified regional transportation projects. In April 2003,the TVTC approved the fee reduction for"Multi Family Residential"and increase for "Office" and "Industrial" of the Land Use Categories. The "Multi Family Residential' fee will be reduced from$1,198 per dwelling unit to$1,087 per dwelling unit(actually$1,217 to$1,097.87 to account for inflation and I% administrative cost). The "Office"fee will be increased from $1.14 per square feet of gross floor area to $3.07 per square feet of gross floor area (actually$1.18 to $3.10 to account for inflation and 1% administrative costs) and "Industrial" fee from $0.88 per square feet of gross floor area to$2.08 per square feet of gross floor area(actually$0.87 to$2.10 to account for inflation and 1% administrative costs). The fee adjustments will eliminate potential project funding shortfalls. IV. Conseguences of Negative Action: Failure to fix the hearing date to consider revision of road fees will result in the loss of potential revenues and would be inconsistent with the intent of the Joint Powers Agreement, which established the TVTDF. NOTICE OF PUE3LIC HEARING AND AVAILABILITY vF DATA (Fee Revision for Tri-Valley Transportation Development Fee Area of Benefit) On September 23,2003,at 9:3€7 a.m.,in the Board Chambers,County Administration Building,651 Pine Street, First Floor, Martinez, CA, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors will hold a public hearing to consider adapting an ordinance revising the fees for the Tri-Valley Transportation Development Fee(TVTDF)Area of Benefit(see map). At the hearing,the Board will consider any written protests by property owners, as well as any oral or written comments. Fees collected through the TVTDF will be collected only from new development within this portion of unincorporated Contra Costa County (see map) and will be collected upon the issuance of building permits. The TVTDF revision is the result of Amendment 1 to the Joint Powers Agreement between the Counties of Contra Costa and Alameda and the Cities of Danville, San Ramon,Dublin,Pleasanton, and Livermore. The proposed fees for approval by the Board are: Land Use Proposed Fee Single-Family Residential: $1,740 per dwelling unit Multi-Family Residential: $1,097.87 per dwelling unit Commercial: $1.17 per square foot of gross floor area Office: $3.10 per square foot of grass floor area Industrial: $2.10 per square font of gross floor area Other: $702 per peak hour trip generated As with most fee programs, the fee revenue from the TVTDF program will not pay the cost of all regional improvements. Other funding must be generated,some of which includes revenues from Measure B in Alameda County and Measure C in Contra Costa County,Transportation Equity Act (TEA) funds, State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) funds, Southern Contra Costa JEPA funds, and local funds (traffic impact fee programs, developer contributions, etc.). The Development Program Report,which includes detailed information about the area of benefit boundaries, estimated costs of the proposed improvements, the methods of fee apportionment, and anticipated revenue sources,is available for review at the office of the Clerk of the Board,651 Pine Street, First Floor, Martine4 CA.
