than impact fees, to pay for the increase in park plan assets benefiting the eXlstmg residents. For transit buses, the methodology would be either incremental or buy in. V. POLICE The major police asset is equipment. The City currently has twenty-five vehicles, four motorcycles, two boats and other equipment. As development continues, there will be an increase cost for service and an increase for police personnel. This will have a resulting impact of creating additional demand for police vehicles. A building component is normally reflected in a police impact fee. At the present time the City leases this space. However this will be changing with the construction of the police facilities in the City's new Municipal Facility. T A recommends that the impact fee the City collects for Police be recalibrated. This is due to changes in methodology, levels of service, cost assumptions and other factors. The methodology for the police equipment is likely to be the incremental approach. The methodology for the police station area is likely to be a plan-based approach in which new growth would pay its fair share of the City's additional space devoted to police services. The demand for police services will be allocated on a residential and a non- residential basis. VI. CITY FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT The major city facility is the space leased for the use of City offices. However this situation will be changing with the planned construction of a new City Hall. The new City Hall will relieve the overcrowded condition of the current City activities and also be able to accommodate the demands due to new development. New growth should pay its fair share of this level of service, which will be reflected with the opening of a new City Hall. Another component of the City facilities and equipment fee is the inclusion of relevant City equipment. This will include the various trucks and other equipment. The methodology for the City Hall will be a plan-based approach in which the level of service will be increased to reflect the opening of the new City Hall. New growth will pay its proportional share. The methodology for the equipment will be on an incremental basis. VII. TRANSPORT A TION/ TRAFFIC The major roads utilized within the City were built by other entities, primarily the state. The other streets were built by developers, since they were part of new subdivisions. Since the City has not expended local dollars for the current street infrastructure, impact fees would not be appropriate. 34 3 Tischler & Associates. Inc.
