ITEM 2. CASE NO. 22-03-CIAC — APPROVED RESOLUTION
NO. 22-03-CIAC
Director of Engineering and Public Works, Major Jones gave a brief description of the
case. Chapter 395 of the Texas Local Government Code mandates that impact fees be
reviewed every five (5) years and either updated or continued without change. In early
2013, the consulting engineering firm Birkhoff, Hendricks & Carter, completed an Impact
Fee Study. Based on that study, the City Council in April 2013 adopted Ordinance No.
1992. The City Council determined at that time that no adjustments to the Capital

Improvement Plan, land use assumptions, or water or wastewater impact fees was
necessary.
Birkhoff, Hendricks & Carter completed a review of the Impact Fee Study and has
concluded that no changes are required to the land use assumptions, the Capital
Improvement Plan, or the water and wastewater impact fees. The amount of impact fees
that is currently approved are 50% of the maximum calculated impact fees determined by
the study in 2013.
The determination that an update is unnecessary is the initial step in the state mandated
procedures to not update the current impact fees. CIAC approval of Resolution No. 22-
03-CIAC is requested so that the remaining steps in the procedure can be accomplished
in a timely manner.
There were no questions or comments presented by the Committee.
Committee Member D. Brown made a motion to approve Case No. 22-03-CIAC to
approve a resolution to adopt the Capital Improvements Advisory Committee.
Committee Member Barker seconded the motion. The vote was as follows:
Ayes: Chairman Ellis, Vice Chairman Portugal, Committee Members: Barker, C.
Brown, D. Brown, Dunckel and Owens.
Nays: None
Abstention: None
Chairman Ellis declared the motion carried. (7-0-0)
