Exhibit B to Administrative Order No. 58-21-56-F Page 1 of 2 City Manager’s Findings Proposal to Correct Errors in Systems Development Charge Inflationary Adjustments Made by Administrative Order 58-21-21-F (Regional Wastewater System and Parks and Recreation System) Pursuant to Section 2.020(2) of the Eugene Code, 1971, the City Manager has considered the following factors in determining that a correction is needed to properly carry out the Systems Development Charge (SDC) inflationary adjustments that were intended in approving Administrative order 58-21-21-F. (a) Applicable policies, enactments and directives of the Council. EC 7.710 states that “an amendment to a methodology that changes the amount of a reimbursement fee or an improvement fee based on the periodic application of an adopted specific cost index or on a change in the costs of materials, labor or real property applied to projects or projected capacity on a project list adopted pursuant to section 7.715(2) may be adopted by the City Manager by administrative order pursuant to section 2.020 of this code.” (b) The amount charged by the City in the past. Council Resolution 5306 adopted a new methodology to calculate Parks SDC fees effective January 1, 2022. The proposed adjustment to Parks and Recreation SDC Rates compares to the prior fees charged by the City for Single Family Residential as follows: FY21 Resolution 5306 (1/1/2022 – 12/31/2022) Proposed FY21 adjustment to Resolution 5306 $4,308 $5,059* $5,183.45* *Resolution 5306 adopted a fee schedule for Single Family Residential based on square foot area. The fee shown is for Single Family Residential, 1,501 – 3,000 square feet. (c) The full costs of providing the service supported by the fee. The inflationary rates used to arrive at the proposed SDC increases are determined by reliable sources and the proposed SDC rate increases reasonably rely on those sources to determine the additional sums needed to develop the projects on the ORS 223.309 capital improvement plans for each system of SDCs due to inflation.
