RESOLUTION No. 98/ 213
Revision of the Alamo Area of Benefit
April 28, 1998
Page 3
11e din nclal lmpa+ctt:
The revision in the Alamo Area of Benefit will have no impact on the General Fund. The funds
collected will continue to be deposited in a trust fund account specific to the improvements to be
funded by the fee program.
Ill. Reasons for Recommendations and Ba grourid:
The purpose of the fees described in this ordinance is to generate funds to finance safety and
capacity improvements to certain major thoroughfares within the Alamo Area of Benefit. This item
was continued with direction from the Board to revise the Development Program Report to charge
Alamo development a traffic fee that reflects only the additional trips attributable to development
within the Alamo area. Trips generated outside the Area of Benefit, or "pass-by" trips, are not
charged to the Alamo developers, and their impacts will be funded through other sources. The
fees will be used to finance the road improvements listed in the Revised development Program
Report dated January 28, 1993. As discussed in more detail in the Report, there is a reasonable
relationship between the fees and the types of development projects that are subject to the fees
in that the development projects will generate additional traffic on major thoroughfares in the
Alamo area, thus creating a need to expand, extend or improve existing major thoroughfares to
mitigate adverse traffic and infrastructure impacts that would otherwise result from such
development projects.
IV. Consequences of Ne tine Action:
Failure to approve the revision in the Alamo Area of Benefit will result in significant funding
shortfalls for the projects contained in the fee program. This would delay the construction of the
facilities for many years until another funding source is secured.

REVISED DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM REPORT
FOR THE ALAMO AREA OF BENEFIT
PURSUANT TO THE BRIDGE CROSSING AND MAJOR THOROUGHFARES
FEE AREA POLICY
INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE
The Alamo Area of Benefit is a development program established to improve the capacity
and safety of the arterial road network in the Alamo area. This ordinance applies only to
new development within the unincorporated area of Alamo. This Revised Development
Program Report is required by the Board of Supervisors Policy on Bridge Crossings and
Major Thoroughfare Fees (adopted July 17, 1979), which implements Division 913 of the
County Ordinance Code and Section 66484 of the State Subdivision Map Act.
One of the objectives of the County General Plan is to relate new development directly to
the provision of community facilities necessary to serve that new development.
Accordingly, development cannot be allowed to occur unless a mechanism is in plane to
provide the funding for the infrastructure necessary to serve that development. The
Alamo Area of Benefit is a fee mechanism providing funds to construct road improvements
to serve new residential, commercial and industrial development. Requiring that all new
development pay a road improvement fee will help ensure that they participate in the cost
of improving the road system.
Each new development or expansion of an existing development will generate new traffic.
Where the existing roan system is inadequate to meet future needs based on new
development, improvements are required to meet the new demand. The purpose of this
development program is to determine improvements that will ultimately be needed to serve
estimated future development and to require the developers to pay a fee to fund these
improvements. Because the fee is based on the relative impact on the road system and
the costs of the necessary improvements to mitigate this impact, the fee amount is roughly
proportional to the development impact. This report discusses the basis of that fee
amount.
BACKGROUND
On September 24, 1986, the Board of Supervisors passed a resolution farming the Alamo
Area of Benefit. At the time, there were many vacant parcels in the area with potential for
residential development, and the existing transportation system was inadequate to handle
the additional traffic generated from the projected development. In 1993, the Area of
Benefit program was revised to reflect the changing needs of the area, Over the past 12
years, Area of Benefit fees have helped pay for improvements to Stone Valley Road,
Miranda Avenue, Livorna Road and Danville Boulevard.
2
The Alamo area has, in recent years, experienced changes in the area's traffic circulation
needs and development potential. Most of the residential development potential has been
fulfilled and many of the Area of Benefit projects have been constructed. These changes
have prompted another revision to the area of benefit program, resulting in a new project
list and fee schedule.
AREA OF BENEFIT - LOCATLON
Figure 1 shows the general location of the Area of Benefit within Contra Costa County.
AREA OF BENEFIT BOUNDARY
The Area of Benefit boundary is shown in Figure 2 and described in Exhibit A.
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 66001 a OF THE GO
VERNMENT RODE
1 PURPOSE OF THE FEE
The purpose of this area of benefit is to generate monies through the adoption of
a traffic mitigation fee to ensure a roadway network consistent with current and
future transportation needs. By adoption of this fee, the proposed road
improvement programs will be able to keep pace with new growth.
2) USE OF THE FEES
The fees will be used to generate monies to pay for the road improvements
described in Exhibit B. This Area of Benefit will only finance the minimum Interim
roadways needed to meet traffic level of service and safety demands. Amenities
that do not have a direct effect on capacity, such as general lighting, extensive
longitudinal storm drain systems, and sidewalks, are not included. These
improvements are considered to be frontage improvements by the Board of
Supervisors, and as such are the responsibilities of the owners of the adjacent
properties. As these properties develop, the frontage improvements may be
provided by the developer through conditions of approval, or by other future means
such as additional fees or assessment districts.
3) RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN USE OF FEES AND TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT
PROJECT
The road improvement projects for which the fees will be used are necessary for the
improvement of the safety and the capacity of the read network serving the
3
unincorporated Alamo area as determined by future growth allowed for in the
General Plan. The road network is outlined in the Circulation dement of the
General Plan.
4) RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NEED FOR ROAD IMPROVEMENTS AND TYPE OF
DEVELOPMENT
A peak trip generation factor has been associated for each type of development outlined
in this program report. These factors are industry standards obtained from the institute of
Transportation Engineers, Trig Generation 5th Edition. The factor used for the
commercial development potential has been adjusted downward to account for the fact that
the single vacant commercial parcel remaining in the Alamo area is suited only for
"neighborhood" commercial development. While the potential commercial development
will generate additional peak hour trips, a large percentage of the trips will be generated
within the community. These trips do not have as great an impact on the overall road
network and will already have been counted among the trips generated by residential
development.
The proposed fee is based on distributing the cost of the Area of Benefit road improvement
program to new development in proportion to the number of peak hour trips generated by
the particular type of new development. All new development will be required to pay a fee
to fund the needed roadway improvements.
GENERAL. PLAN RELATIONSHIP
The basis for the Alamo Area of Benefit is derived from the features of the County General
Plan and its amendments, and subscribes to the policies of the General Plan elements.
The General Plan and its various elements are available for review at the Community
Development Department, County Administration Building, 651 Pine Street, Martinez,
during office hours.
ROAD NETWORK CAPACITY IMPROVEMENT FLAN
The road network capacity improvement program was developed using the Circulation
Element and the development potential identified in the County General Plan. The road
improvements will be funded and constructed in conjunction with the development of
property within the Area of Benefit. The rate of revenue generated in the Alamo Area of
Benefit is dependent on the rate of new development. This affects the timing of the
construction of an Area of Benefit project as it is dependent on the total amount of fees
collected less expenditures.
The proposed projects along Stone Valley Road and the Stone Valley Road/Danville
Boulevard project are only partially funded by the Alamo Area of Benefit fees. This is due
4
to the fact that traffic generated outside of Alamo contributes significantly to the need for
these proposed improvements. Alamo traffic accounts for only one-sixth of the traffic
impacting the intersection of Stone Valley Road and Danville Boulevard, and only about
84% of the traffic that is impacting those projects along Stone Valley Road east of 1-880.
Accordingly, the AOB revenues generated within Alamo will fund only one-sixth of the
Danville Boulevard/Stone Valley Road intersection project and 84% of the remaining
projects along Stone Valley !;toad. Because the projects on Livorna Road and (Miranda
Avenue are impacted 100% by Alamo traffic, the Alamo AOB will fund the entire project
costs for those two projects. Other sources of funding, such as State or Federal aid, or
local sources such as sales tax or gas tax, will be pursued for the partially funded Alamo
Area of Benefit projects.
While the existing road network is adequate to service existing development, the proposed
road plan will help to provide the capacity needed to serve the estimated potential
development and future traffic volumes in the Alamo area. This Area of Benefit will finance
only the minimum interim roadways needed to meet traffic level of service and safety
demands. The road capacity improvement programs proposed by the Alamo Area of
Benefit will be reviewed periodically to assess the impacts of changing travel patterns, the
rate of new development, and the adequacy of the estimated road improvement project
costs.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL WITHIN THE AREA OF BENEFIT
The development potential for the Area of Benefit was estimated by the County Public
Works Department using the General Plan and other resources provided by the County
Community Development Department. A summary of the potential new residential dwelling
units, and commercial, office, and industrial development are shown in Table 1.
Table 1
Summary of Development Potential
Category Floor Area Or Units
Single Family Residential 185 Dwelling Units
Multi-Family residential 8 Dwelling Units
Commercial 13,000 Square Feet

ESTIMATED COST OF ROAD NETWORK IMPROVEMENTS
The estimated Alamo Area of Benefit contribution shown in Exhibit B is only a portion of
the total project cast. The area of benefit will only fund the fair share's portion of the
project attributable to new development. Also, the area of benefit will not fund items that
do not have a direct effect on safety or capacity, such as general lighting, extensive
longitudinal storm drain systems, and sidewalks. The area of benefit will only finance the
minimum interim roadways needed to meet traffic level of service and safety demands.
The estimated Alamo Area of Benefit contribution has been increased by approximately
2% to cover the cost of administration. This includes the estimated staff time for fee
collection, accounting, and technical support to the community groups and traffic advisory
committees.
BASIS FOR FEE APPORTIONMENT
The concept of an area of benefit is the equitable distribution of road improvement costs
to new development from which future traffic impacts will arise. As traffic impacts are
directly related to the total number of vehicles on the road network, we are able to relate
development road fees to the number of vehicle trips associated with a particular category
of development. To summarize, the six categories of land use for which a fee will be
assessed in the Alamo Area of Benefit, are; single and multi-family residential, commercial,
light industrial, industrial and "other" (although there is currently no anticipated
development in the "light industrial" or "industrial" categories in Alamo). The total
estimated Area of Benefit share of the project costs is divided by the number of peak hour
trips generated by each category.
Within the residential categories, the cost is equally distributed among all dwelling units.
In the nonresidential categories, the cost is distributed on the basis of each square foot
of gross floor area. For the "other" category, the fee would be based on the number of
peak hour trips generated by the particular type of development. The Public Works
Department will require a traffic report prepared by a licensed engineer to analyze the
project's impact during the peak traffic hours. The project would then be charged the peak
hour trip rate for the Area of Benefit multiplied by the number of peak hour trips identified
in the traffic report.
CALCULATION OF FEES
The costs of the road improvement program have been distributed to the respective land
use category in proportion to the number of peak hour trips generated by that category.
The fee calculation is shown in Table 2, following.

RECOMMENDED FEES
The recommended fees for the Alamo Area of Benefit, resulting from the Table 2, are shown below.
Single Family Residential: $ 7,290 per dwelling unit
Multi-Family Residential: $ 6,075 per dwelling unit
Commercial: $ 6.73 per SF of gross floor area
Other: $ 7,290 per peak hour trip
REVIEW OF FEES
Project cost estimates will be reviewed periodically while the Alamo Area of Benefit is in effect. The fee
schedule will be adjusted annually to account for inflation using the State of California Construction Cost Index
as published annually by the California Department of Transportation. At no time will the fee schedule be
increased at a rate of more than 5% per year for inflation.
COLLECTION OF FEES
Fees will be collected when the building permit is issued in accordance with Section 913-4.204 of Title 9
(Subdivisions)of the Contra Costa County Ordinance Code. Fees collected will be deposited in an interest-
bearing account already established by the Board of Supervisors on September 24, 1985.
INTEREST ON FEES
The interest accrued on the fees collected in the Alamo Area of Benefit will continue to accumulate in the trust
7
account and will be used for the purpose of administration, design and construction of the fee area
improvements.
IN LIEU DEDIC&1_10
A development may be required to construct a portion of the read improvement identified in Exhibit B. In such
a case the developer may be eligible to receive credit or reimbursement toward the Area of Benefit feed The
developer should contact the Public Works Department prior to the commencement of construction to
determine the eligibility of the road improvement.
