ACTION REQUIRED A simple majority vote of City Council present. BACKGROUND The City's Surface Water Management Plan (SWMP) was adopted in February 1994. The SWMP recommended the City establish surface water connection fees as a means of financing citywide improvements recommended in the SWMP. Connection fees are charged to subdivisions prior to final plat approval to recoup the costs of the installation and maintenance of public storm water infrastructure. The connection charges were derived from estimating the costs of all the pipes and ponds proposed in the SWMP. The total cost has been apportioned so developments are charged according to the number of acres developed and the land use. The fee per acre varies by land use as a result of the amount of impervious surface allowed within that land use category. At that time, the rates were calculated using market values of land in the City of Chanhassen and the construction cost index. In Appendix G from Part I of the SWMP, it was noted that, "the rates should be increased annually in line with the SWMP Fee Update December 16, 2003 Page 2 of 3 construction price index," but, until 2002, the fees had not been updated since adoption. In 2002 and 2003, the Council increased SWMP fees to begin to bring the fees in line with the construction price index. Staff recommends an increase of 8.39% this year to bring the SWMP fees up to date with the construction cost index. RATIONALE The SWMP fees should be updated for several reasons: The construction price index annual average for 1993 was 5210. The annual average for 2003 was listed at 6695, a difference of 28.5 percent (Attachment 3). When the City of Chanhassen adopted the SWMP, the cost for total system construction was reduced by 35 percent from $20,186,000 to $13,120,900 to keep the fees comparable to other communities. o The City has chosen to make up the difference between the current fees and the construction cost index by increasing the fees annually over three years instead of increasing the rate by the entire amount in one year. (This year marks the final year of the three years. From this point forward, the fees will be adjusted based solely on fluctuations of the construction cost index.)
