RESOLUTION NO. 90-068
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SANTA ANA INCREASING DEVELOPMENT FEES FOR
TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
AREAS A-2, B, C-1 AND D THROUGH G
WHEREAS, section 8-44 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code ("SAMC")
establishes the authority for the City Council to create Transportation System
Improvement Program ("TSIP") Areas and to establish fees on development in
such areas to pay for transportation system improvements located in or
benefitting such areas; and
WHEREAS, the City Council, by previously adopted resolutions, has
established TSIP Areas A-2, B, C-1 and D through G in the City of Santa Ana;
and
WHEREAS, the fee previously imposed in such TSIP Areas was set by
SAMC section 88-44 at the rate of two percent (2%) of the estimated cost of
construction or improvement of development projects; and
WHEREAS, section 8-44 is being or has been amended to provide for
the amount of said fees to be set by resolution of the City Council; and
WHEREAS, the City Council does now desire to increase the
development fees within TSIP Areas A-2, B, C-1 and D through G;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:
1. For TSIP Areas A-2, B, C-1 and D through G, the fees charged
pursuant to SAMC section 8-44 shall be three percent (3%) of the estimated
cost of the construction or improvement which is the subject of a building
permit application for which payment of a fee is required by said section 8-44.
2. The purpose of the abovesaid fee is set forth in subsection
(e) of SAMC section 8-44 as follows:
"The purpose of a transportation system improvement program is to
identify and designate those areas where the transportation system may
experience a significant reduction in the level of service unless
corrective measures are instituted concurrent with increased
transportation demands. Fees collected for building projects and
improvements on properties in a transportation systems improvement
program area shall be used to improve the transportation system within
such area when such improvements will substantially benefit the
transportation system within the area."

3. The use to which the abovesaid fee will be put is set forth in
SAMC section 13-112 as follows:
"Monies in a transportation system improvement program area fund
shall be expended to improve the transportation system within the area
for which such fund was established, or outside such area only when such
improvement will substantially benefit such area."
The public facilities to be financed by the fee are identified in Exhibit A,
attached hereto and incorporated herein.
4. The fee applies to all types of development projects,
including residential, commercial, office and industrial; subject to certain
limited exceptions set forth in section 8-44. The use of the fee for
transportation system improvements is reasonably related to all types of
development projects because the owners, occupants and visitors of all types
of uses are benefitted by improved vehicular traffic flow.
5. The need for the public facilities is reasonably related to
all types of development projects because all types of development projects
generate vehicular traffic. The restriction of the use of fees to
transportation system improvements which are located in, or which
substantially benefit, the area of the City from which the fees are derived
assures that the fees derived from any given development project are used to
provide those transportation improvements which most directly address the
needs created by such development project.
6. As used hereinafter "project" means proposed construction
which is subject to the payment of a fee pursuant to SAMC section 8-44 and as
to which construction pursuant to a validly issued building permit has not
commenced as of the effective date of this resolution.
7. The fees established by this resolution shall apply to all
projects except as otherwise hereinafter provided.
8. Any project for which a building permit has been issued prior
to the effective date of this resolution shall be subject to the two percent
(2%) fee formerly specified in SAMC section 8044 unless such building permit
expires without commencement of construction.
9. Any project for which a building permit application has been
filed in accordance with Chapter 3 of the Building Code prior to the effective
date of this resolution shall be subject to the two percent (2%) fee formerly
specified in SAMC section 8-44 unless such building permit application expires
