WHEREAS, on May 16, 2006, the City of Campbell City Council authorized the
Public Works Department to coordinate a study on behalf of the cities of Campbell,
Saratoga, Los Gatos and Monte Sereno to analyze the impact of construction and
refuse related traffic on City streets; and
WHEREAS, the study was conducted by CSG Consultants, Inc., a professional
consulting engineering firm with expertise in pavement maintenance, civil design,
municipal engineering and similar studies regarding the impact of construction vehicles
on streets; and
WHEREAS, the study found :
a. The total annual cost of pavement deterioration caused by vehicles on
Campbell streets was $2,976,272;
b. The percentage of this cost attributable to construction vehicles performing
work within the City of Campbell was determined to be 8.21%;
c. The annual cost of roadway deterioration attributable to construction vehicles
was calculated to be $224,292;
d. A fee of up to $.32 per $100 of building valuation was calculated as a fair
assessment of impact of construction-related vehicles on city streets; and
WHEREAS, based on the findings of the study, the City Council approved a fee
of 0.30% of building permit valuation (equivalent to $.30 per $100 of valuation) on May
15, 2008, as part of approval of the City's Annual Schedule of Fees and Charges.
IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Campbell as follows:
Section One: Amount of the Fee. The fee shall be in the amount set by the City
Council in the City's Fee Schedule, as adopted by Resolution of the City Council;
Section Two: Purpose and Use of the Fee. The purpose of the fee is to recover the
attributable costs of roadway maintenance resulting from the impact of construction
vehicles on the City's street system from construction permit recipients. The fee shall
be used to pay for public roadway maintenance costs, including engineering,
inspection, procurement of materials, and construction.
Section Three: FindinQs. The City Council finds:
1. There is reasonable relationship between the fee's use and the type of
development project on which the fee is imposed, in that it has been
determined that construction vehicles have a quantifiable impact on street
pavement, shortening the useful life of the pavement;
2. There is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and
the type of development project on which the fee is imposed, in that a well-
maintained, convenient and safe street system provides essential public
services to persons and properties within the City, affording and supporting
opportunities for development and redevelopment, free commerce and
housing;
3. There is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the
cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the
development on which the fee is imposed in that there is a direct relationship
between the number and size of construction vehicles and building permit
valuation.
Section Four: Implementation.
1. Collection. The fee shall be imposed on all construction projects for which a
construction permit is issued and where a permit valuation is calculated to
determine the amount of the permit fee due and payable to the City. The fee
shall be collected in conjunction with the payment and issuance of a permit
for construction by the City.
2. ManaQement and AccountinQ. The fees shall be managed and accounted for
in accordance with the relevant provisions of Chapter 5 of Title 7 of the
California Government Code.
