"Mechanisms to assure adequate fire protection facilities ,

Amend the Fire Protection Facilities decision on page 51 of the
Contra Costa County General Plan Community Facilities Element, Fire
Protection Plan by adding the following wording:
"Intensive development of land is taking place in many
areas of Contra Costa County . As outlined previously
in this plan, this development is causing the need for
the additional fire stations and equipment which would
not otherwise be necessary .
In order to insure the public health, safety, and welfare
in these areas , while allowing development, to proceed
under the land use element of the County General Plan,
it is necessary for the fire facilities outlined within
this plan to be assured.
This plan specifically recognizes , as one source of
financing the above capital facilities , the establish-
ment and implementation of fire facilities fees . The use
of such fees allows. for the spreading of the costs for
new facilities to all new developments which contribute
to this problem. Use of such fees is one method to
equitably spread the cost to those developments cumulatively
adding to the need for the facilities .
This plan further allows that land development entitle-
ments which require specialized or unique equipment as
necessary to protect the general populace can be required
to participate in providing, be required to provide, or
fund the specialized equipment, which appropriate .
In general, new development will only be approved when the
fire facilities required by this plan are available or
assured to it. "
Amend the finance Implementation discussion on page 54 of the Contra
Costa County General Plan Community Facility Element, Fire Protection
Plan to add the following item at the end of that section:
"Establish fire facilities fees to help assure provision
of facilities required by this plan. "
