<br />WHEREAS, to derive appropriate proportionate share factors for residential and non- <br />residential development the Consultants have relied on existing levels of service; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, different impact fees have been established for different types of residential <br />and non-residential development, to make the fees proportionate to the demand for public <br />facilities; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the Commission has reviewed the Impact Fees Report and the Impact Fees <br />Manual and determined: (1) that the municipal facilities impact fee is necessary to offset the <br />costs associated with meeting the demand for future municipal services pursuant to the <br />development projections; (2) that the municipal facilities impact fee bears a reasonable <br />relationship to the burden imposed upon the City to provide new municipal facilities to new <br />residents, transient guests and businesses, and provides a benefit to such new residents, transient <br />guests and businesses reasonably related to the municipal facilities impact fee, per capita and per <br />employee, by type; (3) that an essential nexus exists between the projected new residential, <br />transient and non-residential development and the need for additional municipal facilities to be <br />funded via the municipal facilities impact fee; and (4) that the amount of the municipal facilities <br />impact fee is roughly proportional to the pro rata share of the additional municipal facilities <br />needed to provide adequate municipal services to new residential, transient and non-residential <br />development, while maintaining the existing level of service (LOS) standard currently provided <br />to City residents, including transient guests and businesses; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the Commission has conducted two (2) public hearings on the proposed <br />municipal facilities impact fee prior to the scheduled date of adoption of the municipal facilities <br />impact fee; <br /> <br />NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE <br />CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH, FLORIDA, AS FOLLOWS: <br /> <br />Section 1: <br /> <br />Purposes And Intent.
