Impact Fee Report Objectives


Develop fee justification based on standards
established by statutory and case law
Prepare report to:
– Document finding in compliance with Mitigation Fee Act
– Clearly explain all assumptions, methods, and
conclusions

Provide comprehensive back up documentation
2
Mitigation Fee Act Findings
(Govt. Code §66001)

Purpose of fee
– To accommodate the impact created by projected new
residential development on future cemetery facilities.

Use of fee revenue
– To provide capital funding for the expansion and
development of public cemetery facilities.

“Dual Nexus”
– Need: Development  Need for facilities
– Benefit: Development  Use of revenue

Rough Proportionality: Fee amount  development’s
share of new facility costs.

Public Facilities Impact Fee Overview
The Report initially identifies
existing cemetery facilities and
their value to determine existing
facilities standards to measure the
impact of new development on the
need for expanded facilities.

Overview
Facilities standards were then determined to quantify the relationship
between the demand for public cemetery facilities and the population
served by the facility. For this Report the facility standard is expressed
in terms of the number of annual interments per I,000 residents.

Overview:
Estimated future demand was determined based on
projected demand for in-ground burials vs. cremations.

Overview
Future demand for both in-ground burial plots and in-ground
cremation plots and cremation niches was determined. The
use of cemetery facilities from the year 2008 through 2025 by
each of the three service populations, existing, new and nonresident, was also projected (Tables 11 and 12 from Report).

Overview
Table 13: Projected Use of Plots To Capacity (2008 - 2091)
The projected use
of plots was then
calculated to arrive
at a percentage of
39% of the 21,992
existing plot
capacity will be
used by new
development.

Overview
The District’s
existing and planned
facilities per capita
value was calculated
by multiplying the
total value of
existing and planned
facilities by the
projected share of
plots used by new
development and the
dividing by the
increase in service
population.
