PRINCIPLES OF AGREEMENT FOR ADOPTION OF THE TRI-VALLEY
TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT FEE
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
REFER to the Transportation Committee the Tri-Valley Transportation Council (TVTC) Draft
Resolution Approving Principles of Agreement for Adoption of the Tri-Valley Transportation
Development Fee (Exhibit " A
FISCAL IMPACT
None. If resolution is ultimately adopted, it could result in increased fees on new development for
transportation improvements in the Tri-Valley Area.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
On May 6, 1997, the Board of Supervisors forwarded policy comments on TVTC's Draft Traffic
Development Fee Resolution and Nexus Study. These comments were consistent with comments
made by San Ramon and Danville. The TVTC, during its May meeting, discussed the comments
from the TVTC jurisdictions and revised the Resolution accordingly.
The TVTC, June 18 , 1997, approved the distribution of a revised resolution (Exhibit " A ") to
the County as well as to the other TVTC jurisdictions for review and comment. The TVTC has
requested that these comments express any changes both in language and polices reflecting
principles of agreement that the County could approve to adopt a Traffic Development Fee. These
comments will serve as the basis for developing a Joint Exercise Powers Agreement (JEPA). The
TVTC, after distilling and incorporating the comments, will redistribute the package, which will
include a Draft JEPA, for each TVTC jurisdiction to approve in implementing the Traffic
Development Fee Program in the Tri-Valley Area.
