3.10.100 Calculation of transportation impact fees using adopted impact fee schedule.
A. Purpose. The City uses transportation impact fees from new development to fund a portion of the Transportation Facility Plan (TFP) consistent with the goals and policies of the Redmond Comprehensive Plan. The transportation improvements in the TFP are intended to maintain, provide, and improve mobility in Redmond.
B. Method of Calculation. All transportation impact fees shall be calculated using the schedule set forth in subsection C, except where an independent fee calculation study has been prepared and approved as provided in RMC 3.10.120.
1. If a development permit is requested for a mixed-use development, the fee shall be determined by apportioning the space committed to uses specified on the applicable schedule.
2. For applications for a development permit approval extension, the amount of the fee is the net positive difference between the fee currently applicable, and the fee applicable at the time of original permit application, pursuant to this section. If the extension is for a development permit originally issued prior to the effective date of this section, the fee currently applicable shall be collected.
3. For applications for a change of use in an existing development where there is no increase in building or developed area (i.e., no increase in the gross floor area or gross leasable area as applicable), and which requires the issuance of a development permit, the applicant shall receive a credit for the existing development as provided in RMC 3.10.130.
4. For applications for redevelopment or modification of an existing development, the applicant shall receive a credit for the existing development as provided in RMC 3.10.130 and shall pay impact fees on the additional floor area or additional dwelling units as provided in that section.
5. If the type of development activity proposed in a development application is not specified on the applicable fee schedule, the Administrator shall use the fee applicable to the most nearly comparable type(s) of land use on the fee schedule. The Administrator shall be guided in this selection by the most appropriate technical and professional data. If the Administrator determines that there is no comparable type of land use on the applicable fee schedule, the Administrator shall determine the fee by:
a. Using person trip generation data provided by City staff, the developer, and data contained in the most recent edition of Trip Generation, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers; and
b. Applying the formula set forth in subsection B.1 of this section.
C. Transportation Impact Fee Schedule. The following transportation impact fees shall be paid for each unit of use or development:
