11307688.1-366922-0021
Commented [JR1]: I don't think this is needed. If you
want something, I would narrow this. By including the
language you did, you foreclose seeking expedited review
and/or doing a moratorium or interim official control.

11307688.1-366922-0021
Commented [JR3]: What about critical areas? I've
added that.
Commented [JF4R3]: See 2. in this section. I didn't
want to capture all critical areas as I thought streams and
wetlands were most important. I don't see harm in
locating this near the top of a steep slope.
Commented [JR5]: Consider tying to daylight hours. It is
not as clear as fixed hours, but if daytime flight is the only
allowance per federal law without lighting, you most
likely won't want lighted drones moving through the city.

11307688.1- 366922 - 0021
Commented [JR6]: Depending on the spill, how will the
fluids be disposed of? They can't go into storm water, bul
can they go into sanitary sewer? It may depend. If the
w'TF is a bio-type, this type of discharge could damage
the sewer treatment processes. Verify this before final
action on this ordinance please.
Also, consider reference to stormwater code for illicit
discharge rules.
Also, should we require certain equipment (i.e., fire
suppression blankets)? Is this adequate to cover that?

9. Impact Fee Credits for Transportation Improvement Project and
Transportation Improvement Project Property Dedication.
a. Transportation Impact Fee Credit. The maximum amount of the
transportation impact fee credit for construction of the Transportation Improvement Project and
the dedication of the Transportation Improvement Project Property to be made by Owner under
this Agreement shall be limited to the lesser of: (i) the total transportation impact fees due on the
Development Project (currently estimated as $241,651.06), (ii) the cost of the Transportation
Improvement Project constructed by the Owner plus the value of the Transportation Improvement
Project Property to be dedicated as determined in Section 10 which together amount to
$409,649.13, or (iii) the appraised value of the portion of property needed for Project 1.10; Bethel
Phase 4a: Vallair Ct in the amount of $276,890.32 ("Maximum Transportation Impact Fee
Credit"). The credits provided under this Section 9(a) are limited to this Maximum Transportation
Impact Fee Credit. Once the Maximum Transportation Impact Fee Credit has been achieved
through credits applied to Owner for the Development Project, Owner will be required to comply
with the impact fee provisions of the Code for any further development of the Property that requires
payment of transportation impact fees, including payment of any transportation impact fees
incurred over and above the Maximum Transportation Impact Fee Credit.
b. Calculation of Credits Due for Construction of the Transportation
Improvement Project. The credit granted by the City against transportation impact fees includes
Owner's costs to finance, design, and construct the Transportation Improvement Project on the
Development Agreement for Funding Transportation Improvements & Right of Way Dedication
Sound Credit Union (DRAFT 8/18/2026)
Page 6 of 18
11274487.5-366922- 0066
Page 21 of 36
Transportation Improvement Project Property. The Parties agree that this amount shall be limited
to no more than $231,594.88 for the cost of the improvements, plus the value of the land, up to the
Maximum Transportation Impact Fee Credit as set forth in Section 9(a) above.
c. Grant of Credit. The City hereby grants Owner a credit against
transportation impact fees for both the cost of the Transportation Improvement Project plus the fair
market value of the Transportation Improvement Project Property as set forth in this Agreement
and as calculated under the provisions contained Sections 9 and 10. The total estimated
transportation impact fee required for the Development Project is currently estimated as
$241,651.06. If any net transportation impact fees are due, Owner shall pay the transportation
impact fees based on the rate schedule in effect at the time payment has been made to the City for
City Building Permit No. 26-095. The Parties agree that the estimated transportation impact fees
credit granted by the City for the completion of the Transportation Improvement Project plus the
dedication of the Transportation Improvement Project Property will likely exceed the
transportation impact fees due. For the purposes of this subsection, the Parties agree that the
projected net transportation impact fees due will be zero dollars ($-0-). Therefore, the Parties agree
that Owner shall not be required to remit payment for the any transportation impact fees prior to
the issuance of City Permit No. PW25-007 or Building Permit No. 26-095. After completion of
the Transportation Improvement Project and the Dedication of the Transportation Improvement
Project Property, if the Parties determine that Owner owes any transportation impact fees, then
such amount shall be due and payable to the City prior to issuance of any certificate of occupancy
for the Development Project. If the transportation impact fee credits exceed the total amount of
impact fees due for the Development Project, there shall be no refund or payment for such excess
credits due to the Owner.
d. Final Configuration of Transportation Improvement Project Property.
Owner shall dedicate the Transportation Improvement Project Property to the City generally as
shown on Exhibit D, but in the final configuration as determined following the final design of the
Transportation Improvement Project by the City. Such dedication shall be substantially in the form
of the Right of Way Dedication Deed attached as Exhibit E. Owner shall complete such dedication
no later than twelve (12) months after the Effective Date of this Agreement or prior to the City's
issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the first building permit for the Development Project,
whichever time period is shorter.
e. Default and Remedies. In the event Owner defaults on any requirement
under this Agreement, or defaults on dedicating the Transportation Improvement Project Property,
the City's remedies shall include holding any outstanding Certificates of Occupancy until such
time the Transportation Improvement Project Property dedication is completed, including the
Parties' agreement on valuation, and until after any outstanding impact fees are paid in full or
credited.
