SUBJECT: SPECIAL ASSESSMENT OF HUNTERS PASS 2" ADDITION PARK FEES
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the
following:
MOTION TO: Adopt Resolution No. 2014-020 Adopting Assessments for Park Dedication
Fees.
BACKGROUND: When Hunters Pass 2nd Addition was approved earlier this year, the City
agreed to allow park dedication fees to be collected at the time of building permit issuance,
provided the City was allowed to secure their collection via a special assessment of the park fees
due on each lot. This arrangement was approved in the development agreement for the 2nd
Addition. The attached resolution levies $3,300 per property on 11 of the 12 lots in Hunters Pass
2nd Addition (park dedication on one lot has already been paid when the owner applied for a
building permit for that lot).
As building permits are applied for in 2014, the owner will be required to pay the City the park
dedication amount due on the lot. For those lots where the special assessment is paid in 2014,
the City will inform the County of such payment and the special assessment will be removed
from the County's records. For those lots with unpaid special assessments remaining after
December 31, 2014, the County will collect the $3,300 special assessment with the 2015
property tax payment and we will no longer collect the park dedication fee on these lots with the
building permit application. Per the terms of the City's previous approval of this arrangement,
the assessment bears no interest.
KEY ISSUES:
• This assessment has been previously agreed to by the developer, who waived its right to
appeal the special assessment.
• The special assessment will ensure collection of all park dedication amounts no later than
December, 2015.
POLICYIPRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: This special assessment arrangement has been
previously approved by the City Council and memorialized in the development agreement
between the City and the developer.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: The special assessment ensures that the City will collect
all outstanding park dedication amounts in 2015 (assuming all real estate taxes are paid on time).
