Mr. Gilman noted that the Systems Development Charge had been in effect for four and one-half years. He said that operations of the charge had recently been reviewed by the City Attorney's Office, the Finance Division, and the Public Works Department. He said that as a result of this review revisions to the ordinance had been suggested and noted that the proposed revisions had been distributed to councilors. Mr. Gilman distributed a revised page 4 to replace the page that had previously been distributed. Mr. Gilman said that the major changes proposed in the ordinance were 1) to address previous problems with property buyers not being informed of the existence of the charge by making the Systems Development Charge a lien against property from the outset; 2) to change the interest rate, now set at eight percent, to a flexible rate that would vary with bond issues, similar to the Bancroft rate; and 3) to change the method of calculating the charge from the current practice of basing the charge on the building permit value to calculation on the basis of floor area and the impact of the development on service systems. Mr. Gilman said that there were additional minor changes. He said staff recommended - approval of the ordinance. MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 25, 1982 Page 11
