Prescott City Council <br /> Regular Voting Meeting — November 22, 2011 Page 11 <br /> Mr. Kidd said they would have to amend the legislation. He was at <br /> the City Attorneys Conference where one of the attorneys involved <br /> said it was a hammered out compromise between the Central <br /> Arizona Home Builders and the League of Cities and Towns. He <br /> said there was a gentleman's agreement that there would be no <br /> further action from the Home Builders in return for which the <br /> League agreed to the compromise legislation. <br /> Dr. Kindig asked if he was correct in interpreting that in the future, <br /> growth would not necessarily pay for growth. He asked how they <br /> could get that message out. Mr. Kidd said they had impact fees <br /> that were based on studies. He said that the studies indicated that <br /> a certain percentage of those fees were attributable to new growth. <br /> Dr. Kindig asked if the City would inform people that it would be a <br /> major change. <br /> Mr. McConnell said another provision of this legislation was that <br /> the City would be required to update or do new impact fee studies. <br /> Through that process that would provide an opportunity for ample <br /> public input. <br /> COUNCILWOMAN SUTTLES MOVED TO ADOPT ORDINANCE <br /> NO. 4812-1212; SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN HANNA; <br /> PASSED 5-1 WITH COUNCILMAN BLAIR CASTING THE <br /> DISSENTING VOTE. <br /> 2. Adoption of Resolution No. 4108-1218 — A resolution of the Mayor <br /> and Council of the City of Prescott, Yavapai County, Arizona, <br /> adopting a Council Policy to require the Recreational Development <br /> Impact Fee Fund and Public Building Impact Fee Fund to <br /> reimburse and repay the Capital Improvement Fund for monies <br /> loaned from the Capital Improvement Fund to the Recreational <br /> Impact Fee Fund to pay for a portion of the gymnasium at the <br /> Adult Center building and authorizing the Mayor and staff to take <br /> any and all steps necessary to accomplish the above. <br /> Councilwoman Suttles asked if the impact fees for fire were being <br /> returned to the General Fund. Mr. Woodfill said no, the impact fees <br /> would stay in the funds that they were collected for. <br /> COUNCILMAN LAMERSON MOVED TO ADOPT RESOLUTION <br /> NO. 4108-1218; SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN HANNA; <br /> PASSED 5-1 WITH COUNCILWOMAN SUTTLES CASTING THE <br /> DISSENTING VOTE. <br />
