Administrative Recommendation:
Planning and Community Development Committee to recommend to City Council to introduce and adopt
Ordinance No. 6542.
Background Summary:
Title 19 (Impact Fees) of the Auburn City Code contains standards and regulations pertaining to the
imposition of impact fees in the City of Auburn. Chapter 19.02 (School Impact Fees) addresses the
establishment, calculation, collection and amendment of school impact fees within the municipal
boundaries of the City of Auburn. The city originally established school impact fees in 1998 by Ordinance
No. 5078. The portions of four school districts lie within the City limits.
Pursuant to Section 19.02.060 (Annual Council Review) of the Auburn City Code, on at least an annual
basis, the Auburn City Council shall review the information submitted by the Districts pursuant to ACC
19.02.050. The review shall be in conjunction with any update of the capital facilities plan element of the
city's comprehensive plan. The City Council may also at this time determine if an adjustment to the
amount of the impact fees is necessary.
The City of Auburn annual Comprehensive Plan Amendment process for 2014 included requests for City
approval of the Capital Facilities Plans of the four districts as follows:
* 2014 - 2020 Auburn School District Capital Facilities Plan;
* 2015 -2020 Dieringer School District Capital Facilities Plan;
* 2015 Federal Way School District Capital Facilities Plan; and
* 2014 -2015 through 2019 -2020 Kent School District Capital Facilities Plan.
These requests were submitted in accordance with the provisions of Section 19.02.050 (Submission of
District Capital Facilities Plan and Data) of the Auburn City Code.
The School Districts' Capital Facilities Plans are contained in the working notebooks (three ring binders)
for the 2014 Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendments, previously distributed to the City Council.

Agenda Subject: Ordinance No. 6542
Date: November 18, 2014
Definition
The city's code section 19.02 contains the city's regulations governing school impact fees. It provides the
following definition:
"Impact fee" means a payment of money imposed upon development as a condition of development
approval to pay for school facilities needed to serve new growth and development that is reasonably
related to the new development that creates additional demand and need for public facilities, that is a
proportionate share of the cost of the school facilities, and that is used for such facilities that
reasonably benefit the new development.
Related Authority
Other key points of the city's regulations include:
❖ The impact fee shall be based on a capital facilities plan adopted by the district and
incorporated by reference by the city as part of the capital facilities element of the city's
comprehensive plan (Chapter 5), adopted pursuant to Chapter 36.70A RCW, for the purpose of
establishing the fee program.
❖ Separate fees shall be calculated for single - family and multifamily types of dwelling units, and
separate student generation rates must be determined by the district for each type of dwelling
unit.
❖ The fee shall be calculated on a district -wide basis using the appropriate factors and data
supplied by the district. The fee calculations shall also be made on a district -wide basis to assure
maximum utilization of all available school facilities in the district which meet district standards.
❖ As a condition of the city's authorization and adoption of a school impact fee ordinance, the city
and the applicable district shall enter into an interlocal agreement governing the operation of the
school impact fee program, and describing the relationship and liabilities of the parties. The
agreement must provide that the district shall hold the city harmless for all damages.
❖ On an annual basis (by July 1st or on a date agreed to by district and the city and stipulated in
the interlocal agreement), any district for which the city is collecting impact fees shall submit the
Capital facilities plan and supporting information to the city.
❖ Applicants for single - family and multifamily residential building permits shall pay the total
amount of the impact fees assessed before the building permit is issued, using the impact fee
schedules in effect, unless the fee has been deferred pursuant to City Ordinance No. 6341.
❖ The impact fee calculation shall be based upon the formula set forth in ACC 19.02.110, "Impact
fee formula ". The formula is the city's determination of the appropriate proportionate share of the
costs of public school capital facilities needed to serve new growth and development to be funded
by school impact fees based on the factors defined in ACC 19.02.020. Based on this formula, the
"Fee Obligation" is the "Total Unfunded Need" x 50% = Fee Calculation.
The Capital Facilities Plans that were approved by the school boards contain proposed school impact
fees for each of the Districts. The requests for adjustment of the school impact fees are required to be
submitted concurrent with the submittal of the Capital Facilities Plans prior to July 1 of each year. A
separate letter request is only required to be submitted to the city when the fee adjustment is requested to
increase.

DI.A Page 8 of 28
Agenda Subject: Ordinance No. 6542 Date: November 18, 2014
Council Review and Decision
The setting of the actual fees occurs through separate Council action amending Chapter 19.02 of the
Auburn City Code. Section 19.02.060, (Annual Council Review) specifies the following:
On at least an annual basis, the city council shall review the information submitted by the district
pursuant to ACC 19.02.050. The review shall be in conjunction with any update of the capital
facilities plan element of the city's comprehensive plan. The city council may also at this time
determine if an adjustment to the amount of the impact fees is necessary, provided, that any
school impact fee adjustment that would increase the school impact fee shall require the
submittal of a written request for the adjustment by the applicable school district concurrent with
the submittal of the annual capital facilities plan pursuant to ACC 19.02.050. In making its
decision to adjust impact fees, the city council will take into consideration the quality and
completeness of the information provided in the applicable school district capital facilities plan
and may decide to enact a fee less than the amount supported by the capital facilities plan.
Section 19.02.060 establishes that the Auburn City Council is not obligated to accept the fees proposed
by the School Districts within their submitted Capital Facilities Plans and may establish fees that the
Council determines are more appropriate and consistent with the public's interest in reasonably mitigating
school impacts within the affected portion of the City.
Recommendation
Option #1:
The Dieringer School District submitted a proposed fee calculation of $5,231.00 for single family
residential and $1,839.00 for multiple family residential based on their Capital Facilities Plan. Related to
this, the Pierce County Council by Ordinance No. 2014 -100, adopted November 17, 2014 and effective
January 1, 2015, established a school impact fee for the Dieringer School District of $3,270.00 for single
family residential and $1,839.00 for multiple family residential. (The Dieringer School District is the only
school district common to both the jurisdictions of the City of Auburn and Pierce County). Pierce County
imposes the same maximum school impact fee for all school districts located in Pierce County.
To be consistent, it is appropriate to establish a fee applicable to Auburn for the Dieringer School district
that is the same as Pierce County's fee since it is more appropriate and consistent with the public's
interest in reasonably mitigating school impacts within the affected portion of the City. The draft
Ordinance No. 6542 has been prepared to reflect school impact fees that are the same as Pierce
County's school impact fee and differs from what the Dieringer School District has requested, as
historically has been done.
Option #2:
The City could adopt school impact fees for the Dieringer school district, as well as other school districts,
as requested. This would require further revision of Ordinance No. 6542, beyond what is presented in
your packet.
Committee Actions
A discussion of the school impact fee changes is proposed to be held at the Planning and Community
Development Committee's (PCDC) regular meeting on November 24, 2014 and at the Public Works
Committee regular meeting on December 1, 2014. The PCDC is scheduled to discuss and forward a
recommendation on Ordinance No. 6542 at the regular meeting on December 8, 2014 and to be
considered by the full city council on December 15, 2014.
This schedule could be expedited based on the Committee decisions to combine discussion and actions
on the proposal at a single meeting.

ORDINANCE NO. 2014 -100
An Ordinance of the Pierce County Council Amending Section 4A.20.030 of
the Pierce County Code, "Impact Fee Schedule," to Adjust
Regional Park Impact Fees for 2015; Amending Section
4A.30.030 of the Pierce County Code, "School Impact Fee
Schedule," to Adjust School Impact Fees for 2015; and
Setting an Effective Date.
Whereas, park and school impact fees in Pierce County are calculated according
to the formulas in Sections 4A.20.020 and 4A.30.020 of the Pierce County Code (PCC),
then the fee is "capped" by a "Maximum Fee Obligation" (MFO) which increases
annually according to the Consumer Price Index for the Seattle /Tacoma /Bremerton
Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (PCC 4A.20.020 D. and 4A.30.020 D.); and
Whereas, the annual adjustment must be adopted by Ordinance following the
adoption of the Capital Facilities Plan and any review of impact fees; and
Whereas, it has been the practice of the Pierce County Council to only adjust
impact fees in increments of five dollars, rounding up to the nearest five dollar
increment; and
Whereas, the Pierce County Council temporarily suspended inflationary
adjustments to park and school impact fees for the years 2012 and 2013 for economic
reasons through the adoption of Ordinance Nos. 2011 -81s and 2012 -71; and
Whereas, regarding regional park impact fees, the Consumer Price Index for all
urban consumers for the Seattle- Tacoma - Bremerton area in the first half of 1997 was
161.9 (the base index for regional park impact fees); for August 2014 it was 247.19;
which is an increase of 52.68 percent; and
Whereas, the MFO for regional parks, adopted in Ordinance No. 96 -122S, was
$250.00 for single - family dwelling units and $125.00 for each multi - family dwelling unit;
and
Whereas, as a result of inflationary adjustments from prior years, the current
MFO for regional parks is $375.00 for single - family dwelling units, and $190.00 for multi-
family dwelling units; and

August 2014 and rounding up to the nearest five dollar increment, the adjusted regional
park MFOs are $385.00 for single - family dwelling units, and $195.00 for multi - family
dwelling units, an increase of $10 and $5, respectively; and
Whereas, school impact fees are collected for residential development in the
unincorporated County for school districts that meet the requirements in Title 4A PCC;
and
Whereas, the Consumer Price Index for all urban customers for the Seattle -
Tacoma- Bremerton area for January 2006 was calculated to be 202.25 (the base index
for school impact fees); for August 2014 it was 247.19, which is an increase of 22.22
percent; and
Whereas, the MFO for school districts effective in January 2006 and adopted in
Ordinance No. 2004 -94s was $2,675.00 for single - family dwelling units and $1,410.00
for each multi - family dwelling unit; and
Whereas, as a result of inflationary adjustments from prior years, the current
MFO for schools is $3,215.00 for single - family dwelling units, and $1,695.00 for multi-
family dwelling units; and
Whereas, after adjusting for changes to the Consumer Price Index through
August 2014 and rounding up to the nearest five dollar increment, the adjusted school
MFOs are $3,270.00 for single - family dwelling units and $1,725.00 for multi - family
dwelling units, an increase of $55 and $30, respectively; and
Whereas, pursuant to Sections 4A.10.130 and 4A.30.010 C. PCC, the County
has reviewed the relevant School Districts' Capital Facilities Plans, County
Comprehensive Plan Amendments, and Title 4A PCC; and
Whereas, the White River and Carbonado School Districts have requested that
no impact fees be collected by Pierce County within their respective districts; and
Whereas, the Council is reviewing the park and school impact fee changes in
conjunction with the annual review and update of the Capital Facilities Plan element of
the Comprehensive Plan, as required by PCC 4A.10.030 A.; Now Therefore,
