Commission cleans up developer park-fee language; clarifies fee applies to new units only

The commission reviewed and approved a recommendation on ZC 24-3, an amendment to codified ordinance chapter 11 35.04 that cleans up duplicated park-fee language in the village fee schedule.

Unidentified Speaker 1 said staff found the developer park-fee provision duplicated across four code sections; the amendment consolidates the fee language into the fee schedule the council controls. "Just to reiterate here, this is not like a tax for current homeowners. This is for developers who are building new households," Unidentified Speaker 1 said. Commissioners approved moving the amendment to council for a public hearing and the standard first and second readings.

Staff noted the fee is a one-time developer obligation for new units; final fee amounts and administration will be handled through the council-controlled fee schedule.
