generated depending on the level of impact fees set by the BOCC and using the assumptions <br />about annual additional housing units created as laid out in the Tischler report. One idea <br />discussed. by the BOCC at the June 21 budget work would be to base the impact fees at 56 <br />percent of each maximum supportable impact fee, based on the request from the Orange <br />County Board of Education that the single family detached impact fee in the OCS district be set <br />at $3,000 per dwelling unit (which represents 56 percent of the maximum fee of $5,364.) The <br />revenue figures derived from the 56 percent scenario are denoted in the pink section of each <br />table. The Board may also wish to consider setting rates for the Chapel Hill-Carrboro system <br />that will generate at least as much estimated impact fee revenue for the CHCCS district as <br />currently projected under the, existing fee schedule. All of the scenarios with fees set at 50 <br />percent or higher of the maximum supportable impact fee would produce such a result. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board amend the Ordinance as <br />follows: <br />1. In keeping with the impact fee amounts as proposed by the Orange County School <br />Board for Orange County Schools, and observing the 56 percent benchmark, <br />approve $3,000 for single family detached and $1,420.for all other residential units <br />with an effective date of July 1, 2001. Permits issued prior to July 1 would be <br />assessed at the existing impact fee of $750. <br />2. Depending on rates set by the BOCC for OCS, consider the 56 percent benchmark <br />($4,113 for single family detached and $1,847 for all other residential units) as a <br />starting point for discussion about impact fee amounts for the Chapel Hill-Carrboro <br />.City Schools with an effective date of July 1, 2.001. Permits issued prior to July 1 <br />would be assessed at the existing impact fee of $3,000. <br />
