6 of '13 <br /> 5606 PG 313 <br /> exclusion of these fees within the CRA will encourage development within the area for both new <br /> commercial and residential structures and be in the best interest of the citizens of Zephyrhills. <br /> B. It has been determined by the City Council that any new land development activity <br /> generating traffic in the City other than permitted activity within the CRA, should be charged a <br /> reasonable"Fair Share Fee"to help regulate new land development activity's effect on roads and <br /> related facilities. <br /> C. After the effective date of this ordinance, applicants within the second transportation <br /> district shall pay a"Fair Share Fee"in the amount and manner required by this Ordinance for any <br /> new land development activity generating traffic. The"Fair Share Fee"shall be used only within <br /> that transportation impact fee zone,or for other state and/or County roadway improvements that <br /> are of direct benefit to mitigate the traffic impact anticipated to result from the subject <br /> development activity. Direct benefit shall be determined by an affirmative vote of City Council. <br /> D. The "Fair Share Fee" shall be determined by using either of the following methods: <br /> 1. Independent Calculation: Any person may determine his "Fair Share Fee" by <br /> providing traffic and economic documentation that his economic impact on the major road <br /> network system is less that the "Fair Share Fee" as determined under subparagraph C2 below. <br /> The documentation submitted shall show the basis upon which the "Fair Share Fee" has been <br /> calculated, including but not limited to the following factors: <br /> a. Documentation of trip generation rates as appropriate for the proposed land <br /> development activity. <br /> b. Basis for trip distribution, traffic assignment and trip lengths. <br /> c. Estimates of the cost to replace the portion of the design capacity used by the <br /> traffic generated by the proposed land development activity on each of the affected roads (this <br /> cost shall include consideration of a reasonable inflation rate, right-of-ways costs, plans <br /> preparation costs and other cost which may reasonably be expected for the necessary road <br /> improvements). <br /> d. Tax revenues derived from the proposed land development activity which can <br /> reasonably be projected to be available for these capacity replacements costs. <br /> e. The amount of any shortfall of these projected revenues when compared to the <br /> required capacity replacement costs. This documentation shall be prepared and presented by <br /> qualified professions in their respective fields and must be based on studies,surveys and reports <br /> using standard practices and accepted methodological procedures. The mathematical assumption <br /> formulas and generation rates used in this Ordinance may be used as a basis without independent <br /> documentation. The City Manager,or his designee,shall be authorized to reject any independent <br /> • <br /> calculation not meeting the above criteria. <br /> 2. Fair Share Formula: The following Fair Share Formula may be used for hose <br /> planned developments for which a traffic impact analysis has been prepared for the purposes of <br /> determining the external trips imposed by the development on the Major Road Network System. <br /> The Official Trip Generation Rate as shown in subparagraph C3 shall be used as the basis for <br /> calculating the total external trips for the planned development. <br /> The City Manager,or his designee,shall review the traffic impact analysis and determine <br /> the "Fair Share Fee" to be paid in accordance with the following formula. Any applicant may <br />
