    C. Advisory committee.

    (1) The advisory committee shall consist of the planning and zoning commission. If the committee does not include at least one representative of the real estate, development or building industry who is not an employee or official of a political Subdivision or governmental entity, the city council shall appoint at least one such representative as an ad hoc voting member of the advisory committee. If any impact fee is to be applied in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the city, a representative from that area shall be appointed by the city council.

    (2) The advisory committee serves in an advisory capacity and is established to:

    (a) Advise and assist the adoption of land use assumptions;

    (b) Review the capital improvements plan and file written comments;

    (c) Monitor and evaluate implementation of the capital improvements plan;

    (d) File semi-annual reports with respect to the progress of the capital improvements plan and report to the city council any perceived inequities in implementing the plan or imposing the impact fee; and

    (e) Advise the city staff and council of the need to update or revise the land use assumptions, capital improvements plan, and impact fee.

    (3) All professional reports concerning the development and implementation of the capital improvements plan shall be made available to the advisory committee.

    (4) The advisory committee shall elect a chairperson to preside at its meetings and a vice-chairperson to serve in his or her absence. All meetings of the committee shall be open to the public and posted at least 72 hours in advance. A majority of the membership of the committee shall constitute a quorum.

    (5) In the event of any conflict between this subsection 8-6(c) and applicable state law, state law shall control.

    D. Periodic updates required.

    (1) The city shall update the land use assumptions and capital improvements plan upon which impact fees are based at least every five years, beginning with the date of adoption of such plans, and shall recalculate the impact fees based thereon in accordance with provisions set forth in Chapter 395, Texas Local Government Code, or any successor statute.

    (2) The city may review its land use assumptions, impact fees, capital improvements plans and other factors, such as market conditions, more frequently than provided in subsection (1) above to determine whether the land use assumptions and capital improvements plan should be updated and the impact fee recalculated accordingly.

    (3) If, at the time an update is required pursuant to subsection (1) above, the city council determines that no change to the land use assumptions, capital improvements plan or impact fee is needed, it may dispense with such update by following the procedures in Local Government Code, Section 395.0575, or its successor statute.

    E. Impact fee as a condition of development approval/permit issuance. No final plat for new development shall be released for filing with the appropriate county, nor may any new development be connected to the city's water or wastewater system, nor may an application of a utility connection be approved, without assessment of an impact fee pursuant to this section. No building permit shall be issued or utility connection made for new development until the property owner has paid the impact fee imposed herein.

    F. Assessment of impact fees.

    (1) For land which is un-platted at the time of application for a building permit or utility connection, or for a new development which received final plat approval prior to the effective date of this article, and for which no re-platting is necessary pursuant to the city's subdivision regulations prior to development, assessment of impact fees shall occur at the time application is made for the building permit or utility connection, whichever first occurs, and shall be the amount of the maximum impact fee per service unit in effect, as set forth in Exhibits A, B and C, attached hereto and made part hereof for all purposes. [Exhibits A—C are located at the end of this chapter.]

    (2) For a new development which is submitted for approval pursuant to the city's subdivision regulations on or after the effective date of this section, or for which re-platting results in an increase in the number of service units after such date, assessment of impact fees shall be at the time of final plat recordation, and shall be the amount of the maximum impact fee per service unit in effect as set forth in Exhibits A, B and C.

    (3) Following the initial assessment of impact fees for new development pursuant to subsection (1) above, the amount of impact fee assessment per service unit for that development cannot be increased, unless the owner proposes to change the approved development by the submission of a new application for final plat approval or other development application that results in approval of additional service units, in which case the impact fee will be reassessed for the increased meter size or additional meters or service units at the impact fee rate then in effect.

    (4) Following the vacating of any plat or approval of any re-plat, a new assessment must be made in accordance with subsection (1) above.

    (5) An application for an amending plat made pursuant to V.T.C.A. Texas Local Government Code, § 212.016 and the City Subdivision Ordinance, and for which no new development is proposed, is not subject to reassessment for an impact fee.

    (6) Except for roadway facilities, impact fees-may be assessed but not collected for property where service is not available unless:

    (a) The city commits to commence construction of necessary facilities identified in the capital improvements plan within two years and have service available in a reasonable time not exceeding five years; or

    (b) The city agrees in writing to permit the owner of the property to construct or finance the required capital improvement or facility expansion and agrees that the costs incurred or funds advanced will either:

    (i) Be credited against the impact fees otherwise due from the new development;

    (ii) Reimburse the owner for such costs from impact fees paid from other new developments that will use such capital improvements or facility expansions in which case fees shall be reimbursed to the owner at the time collected as other new development plats are recorded; or

    (iii) The owner voluntarily requests that the city reserve capacity to serve future development and the city and the owner enter into agreement.

    (7) Church facilities for the worship of a Supreme Being, and related religious training shall be exempt from the assessment of impact fees. These facilities shall include auditorium type buildings where worship services are conducted and class room type buildings in which the primary purpose of the room is for religious instruction. The definition of church facility shall exclude church-related schools, day care/child care functions, gymnasium, and other recreational facilities.

    (8) Assessment of water or wastewater impact fees may be deferred for developments in the city which are not planned to connect to the city's water system or wastewater system due to the unavailability of the water or wastewater lines. These impact fees will be imposed on the property owner at the prevailing rates in the event of a subsequent connection to the city services.

    G. Calculation of impact fees.

    (1) Impact fees shall be determined by multiplying the number of service unit equivalents in the proposed development by the amount per service unit equivalent due under Exhibits A, B and C.

    (2) The determination of impact fees shall be reduced by any allowable credits for the category of capital improvements as provided in this section.

    (3) The total amount of unpaid impact fees shall be attached to the development application, or if to be paid at some later date, to the request for other permit or connection.

    (4) Re-platting shall not require recalculation of impact fees unless the number of service units is increased or land uses change. If a proposed development increases the number of service units, the impact fee shall be recalculated as provided in this section.

    H. Calculation and collection of impact fees.

    (1) Impact fees for new development shall be collected at the time the city issues a building permit, or if a building permit is not required, at the time an application is filed for a new connection, to the city's water or wastewater system, or for an increase in water meter size, unless an agreement between the property owner and the city has been executed providing for a different time of payment.

    (2) At the time of final plat approval, or the request for a utility connection for an area in the city's extraterritorial jurisdiction for which a final plat was not submitted to the city, for all new developments, the city shall compute the impact fees due for the new development in the following manner:

    (a) The amount of each type of impact fee due (roadway, water, and/or wastewater) shall be determined by multiplying the number of each type of service units generated by the new development by the impact fee due for each type of service unit as set forth in Exhibits A, B and C respectively.

    (b) The amount of each impact fee due shall be reduced by any allowable credits for that category of capital improvements in the manner provided by this section.

    (3) Whenever a property owner proposes to increase the number of service units for a new development, the additional impact fees collected for such new service units shall be determined by using the amount of impact fee per service unit in Exhibits A, B and C, then in effect, and such additional fee shall be collected at the time of issuance of a new building permit, or for an area in the city's extraterritorial jurisdiction for which a final plat was not required to be submitted to the city, prior to or at the time of enlargement of the connection to the city's water or wastewater system.

    I. Credits.

    (1) Any construction of, contributions to, or dedications of any facility appearing in the capital improvements plan that is required by the city to be constructed by the owner as a condition of development shall be credited against the impact fees otherwise due from the same category (roadway, water or wastewater) of impact fees assessed on the development.

    (2) The amount of each credit for required construction of a facility in the capital improvements plan shall be calculated by multiplying the value of the facility assessed for the capital improvements plan by a fraction, the numerator of which is the impact fee per service unit equivalent due for the new development computed using the denominator of which is the maximum impact fee per service unit computed using the capital improvements plan.

    (3) All credits against impact fees shall be subject to the following limitations and shall be granted based on this section and any additional administrative guidelines that may be adopted by the city.

    (a) No credit shall be given for the dedication or construction of site-related facilities.

    (b) No credit shall exceed an amount equal to the assessed impact fee.

    (c) If a credit applicable to a final plat has not been exhausted within ten years, from the acquisition of the first building permit issued or utility connection made, after the effective date of the adoption of the applicable impact fees, or within such period as may otherwise be designated by contract, such credit shall lapse.

    (d) In no event will the city reimburse the property owner or developer for a credit when impact fees for the new development can be collected pursuant to this section or for any amount exceeding the total impact fees collected or due for the new development for the category of capital improvement, unless otherwise agreed to by the city.

    (4) The available credit associated with new development shall be applied against an impact fee in the following manner:

    (a) For single-family residential lots in a new development consisting only of single-family residential development, such credit shall be prorated equally among such lots, to be applied at the time of application of a building permit for each lot, against impact fees to be collected at the time the building permit is issued.

    (b) For all other types of new development, including those involving mixed uses, the credit applicable to the new development shall be applied to the impact fee due at the time of approval.

    (c) At its sole discretion, the city may authorize alternative credit agreements upon written agreement with the property owner in accordance with the city's administrative guidelines.

    J. Establishment of accounts.

    (1) All impact fees collected shall be deposited in interest bearing accounts clearly identifying the category of capital improvements or facility expansions within the service area for which the fee is collected.

    (2) Interest earned on the account into which the impact fees are deposited, shall be considered funds of the account and shall be used only in the same manner as which the underlying funds may be used.

    (3) Impact fees and the interest earned thereon may be spent only for the purposes for which such fees were imposed as shown in the capital improvements plan.

    (4) The records of the accounts into which impact fees are deposited shall be open for public inspection and copying during ordinary business hours.

    K. Use of proceeds of impact fee accounts.

    (1) The impact fees collected for each service area may be used to finance or to recoup the costs of any capital improvements or facility expansion identified in the capital improvements plan for the service area, including but not limited to the construction contract price, surveying and engineering fees, land acquisition costs (including land purchases, court awards and costs, attorney's fees and expert witness fees). Impact fees may also be used to pay the principal sum and interest and other finance costs on bonds, notes or other obligations issued by or on behalf of the city to finance such capital improvements or facility expansion.

    (2) Impact fees collected pursuant to this section shall not be used to pay for any of the following expenses:

    (a) Construction, acquisition or expansion of public facilities or assets other than capital improvements or facility expansions identified in the capital improvements plan;

    (b) Repair, operation or maintenance of existing or new capital improvements or facility expansions;

    (c) Upgrade, update, expansion or replacement of existing capital improvements to provide better service to existing development; or

    (d) Administrative and operating costs of the city.

    L. Refunds.

    (1) Upon application by an owner of property, any impact fee or portion thereof collected pursuant to city ordinance, which: (i) has not been expended within the service area within ten years from the date of payment, or (ii) existing facilities are available and service is denied, or (iii) the city has, after collecting the impact fee when service was not available, failed to commence construction within two years or service is not available within a reasonable period considering the type of improvement or expansion, but in no event later than five years from the date of payment, shall be refunded to the record owner of the property for which the impact fee was paid or, if the impact fee was paid by another governmental entity, to such governmental entity, together with interest calculated from the date of payment to the date of refund at the statutory rate set forth in the Texas Finance Code, § 302.002, or its successor statute. The application for refund pursuant to this section shall be submitted within 60 days after the expiration of the ten-year period for expenditure of the fee. An impact fee shall be considered expended on a first-in, first-out basis.

    (2) An impact fee collected pursuant to this section shall also be considered expended if the total expenditures for capital improvements or facilities expansion within the service area within ten years following the date of payment exceed the total fees collected within the service area for such improvements or facilities expansion during such period.

    (3) If a refund is due pursuant to subsection (1) above, the city shall divide the difference between the amount of expenditures and the amount of the fees collected by the total number of service units assumed within the service area for the period to determine the refund due per service unit. The refund to the record owner shall be calculated by multiplying the refund due per service unit by the number of service units for the development for which the fee was paid, and interest due shall be calculated upon that amount.

    (4) Upon completion of all the capital improvements or facility expansions identified in the capital improvements plan for the service area, the city shall recalculate the impact fee per service unit using the actual costs for the improvements or facilities expansions. If the impact fee per service unit based on actual cost is less than the impact fee per service unit paid, the city shall refund the difference, if such difference exceeds the impact fee paid by more than ten percent. If the difference is less than ten percent, no refund shall be due. The refund to the record owner shall be calculated by multiplying such difference by the number of service units for the development for which the fee was paid, and interest due shall be calculated upon that amount.

    M. Appeals.

    (1) The property owner or applicant for new development may appeal the following decisions to the city council: (a) the applicability of an impact fee to the new development; (b) the method of calculating the amount of the impact fee due; (c) the availability or the amount of an offset, credit or rebate; (d) the application of an offset or credit against an impact fee due; or (e) the amount of a refund due, if any.

    (2) The burden of proof shall be on the appellant to demonstrate that the amount of the fee or the amount of the offset credit or rebate was not calculated according to the provisions of this article.

    (3) The appellant must file a notice of appeal with the city secretary within 30 days following the determination of the amount of the impact fees to be paid by the development. If the notice of appeal is accompanied by a bond or other sufficient surety satisfactory to the city attorney in an amount equal to the original determination of the impact fee due, the development application may be processed while the appeal is pending.

    N. Use of other financing mechanisms.

    (1) The city may finance capital improvements or facilities expansions designated in the capital improvements plan through the issuance of bonds, through the formation of public utility districts or other assessment districts, or through any other authorized mechanism, in such manner and subject to such limitations as may be provided by law, in addition to the use of impact fees.

    (2) Except as herein otherwise provided, the assessment and collection of an impact fee shall be additional and supplemental to, and not in substitution of, any other tax, fee, charge or assessment which is lawfully imposed on and due against the property.

    O. Impact fees as additional and supplemental regulations. Impact fees established by this section are additional and supplemental to, and not in substitution of, any other requirements imposed by the city on the development of land or the issuance of building permits or certificates of occupancy. Such fees are intended to be consistent with and to further the policies of the city's comprehensive land use plan, the capital improvements plan, the zoning ordinance, subdivision regulations and other city policies, ordinances, codes and resolutions by which the city seeks to ensure the provision of adequate public facilities in conjunction with the development of land.
