Notes:
A. Basic trip rates are based on the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 9th Edition.
B. Impact fee rate calculation is based upon the following methodology:
– Basic Trip Rate = PM Peak Hour Trip Generation (per unit of measure)
– Basic Trip Rate x Percent of New Trips x Trip Length Adjustment x Per Trip Fee/(divide
by) 1,000 for rate per square foot (where applicable) = Impact Fee Rate (per unit of measure)
C. For land uses not specifically identified here, trip generation rates could be derived from ITE
or a special study by the applicant.
D. sf/GFA= Square feet Gross Floor Area; sf/GLA= Square Feet Gross Leasable Area;
VFP=Vehicle Fueling Position.
E. Projects eligible for the Downtown Fee Rate are those located entirely within the boundary
identified on Figure 1.

disturb 7,000 square feet or more of land.
• Level 3 permits are for all projects that add 5,000 square feet or more of hard surface area, or convert ¾
acres or more of native vegetation to lawn/landscaped area, or convert 2.5 acres or more of native
vegetation to pasture, or the new plus replaced hard surface area is 5,000 square feet or more and the
value of improvements exceeds 50% of the assessed value of existing improvements.

(8)ESU, Equivalent Service Unit - A configuration of development of hard surfaces (which include impervious
surfaces, permeable pavements, and vegetated roofs) estimated to contribute an amount of runoff to the
City’s storm drainage system which is approximately equal to that created by the average single family
residential parcel. Although gravel surfaces are considered a hard surface under ACC 13.48.010, existing
gravel surfaces are not included in the calculation of the SDCs. One ESU is considered equal to 2,600 square
feet of parcel coverage by hard surfaces. Per ACC 13.48.010.
When calculating the total SDC, a credit will be applied for the existing hard surface area except existing
gravel surfaces (e.g., new total SDC minus calculated SDC for existing hard surface area using the definition
of hard surface as given in ACC 13.48.010).

For Non-Excavation Type Work: This work includes any work in the public right-of-way that is not
covered by any other permits and includes such things as overhead utility work, geotechnical
borings, horizontal directional drilling and vault installation.
Permit Fee = BF + (HIR x Permit Duration in Days)
In Lieu of Fee: In lieu of the above standard rates, the city engineer or his/her designee may
calculate the fee based upon current labor rates for administrative and inspection staff after
developing an estimate of staff effort involved. For projects that are expected to involve significantly
more than 1,000 feet of street excavation or when the scope or duration cannot be accurately
estimated, the city engineer may establish a deposit account to manage permitee deposits in
advance of permit issuance for reimbursing actual labor costs of administering the permit. Such
deposit accounts will not be interest bearing and will be closed at the end of the permitted work
when a final accounting of the permit administration cost shall be calculated and a final bill or credit
issued to the permitee.

K. WAIVER OF FEES (Per Resolution No. 5181).
1. The Mayor is authorized to waive any fees for permits, licenses, publications and
actions as authorized by Sections 2.03.030, 5.10.030 and 12.60.020 of the City Code.
2. The Mayor is also authorized to reduce, and is vested with to discretion to reduce
in compelling cases, by up to 50% any fees for permits, publications and actions where the
applicant – the party responsible for payment of such fees – is an organization exempt from
taxation under 26 US 501(c)(3), and where the permit(s), publication(s) and/or action(s) relate
directly to the provision of charitable services to residents of the City of Auburn. Charitable
services are defined as events or services provided to the residents of Auburn free of charge and
where the City is a sponsor of the specific event or service. For the purposes hereof, “compelling
cases” mean instances where there is an extraordinary need (greatly beyond current and ordinary
need) for the charitable services that would be able to be provided. The intent of this authorization
is to empower the Mayor with sole discretion to waive some fees in unique situations where there
is a greatly increased need for new charitable services to be provided, and where the reduction
of fees to the City will not detrimentally impact the City’s ability to provide municipal services. This
waiver does not include Impact Fees, System Development Charges, any fees related to
Franchise or Public Way Agreements, Right-of-way Vacations, Right-of-Way Use Permits, Facility
Extensions, Police Department Fees, Animal Licensing Fees and Penalties, Banner Permit Fees,
or Cemetery or Parks fees.
