WHEREAS, Title 10, Chapter 10.12, Section 10.12.070 of the Anaheim Municipal Code authorizes the City Council of the City of Anaheim to establish from time to time, by resolution, the charges to be made for any and all disposal connections with the Public Sewerage System in areas annexed to, or otherwise having become a part of the City of Anaheim from and after the 1st day of March, 1938; and WHEREAS, a City-wide sewer service fee is currently in effect for all areas of the City; and WHEREAS, in order to implement the goals and objectives of the "South Central Area Sewer Deficiency Study" for the South Central City Area of the city of Anaheim, dated January 1993, adopted in May of 1993, updated in February 1994 and adopted in March of 1994 by Resolution No. 94R-37, and the goals and objectives of Section 4 of "The Anaheim Resort Specific Plan" adopted in September of 1994 and the "Sanitary Sewer and Storm Drain Financial Implementation Plan for the South Central City Area" dated August of 1994, (hereinafter referred to collectively as "Studies") and to mitigate deficiencies in the sewer system caused by new development and/or by additions and expansions to existing development within the South Central City Area, the City Council has determined that additional sewer impact fees are needed to finance sewer improvements for new and/or expanded developments in the South Central City Area; and WHEREAS, the South Central City Area is as specifically shown in the Sewer Deficiency Study and is relatively bounded on the north by South Street, on the south by Chapman Avenue, on the west by Euclid Street, and on the east by Sunkist Avenue; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Anaheim did hold a public hearing to consider imposing an additional sewer impact and improvement fee for the South Central City Area, (SCCA Sewer Fee) notice of which hearing was given in the manner required by law; and WHEREAS, an analysis of the need for sewer improvements and for new and expanded sewer facilities and improvements for new and expanded developments in the South Central City Area is set forth in the Studies referred to hereinabove; and WHEREAS, said Studies list the specific improvements in the South Central City Area to be financed, describe the estimated costs of said improvements, set forth the relationship between new development, the expansion of existing development and the needed facilities, and provide estimates of costs for those improvements; and WHEREAS, said Studies were available for public inspection and review fourteen (14) days prior to the public hearing; and WHEREAS, the City Council, after due consideration of all evidence, testimony and reports offered at the public hearing does find as follows: A. The purpose of adding the SCCA Sewer Fee is to finance sewer facilities to reduce the impacts on the sewer system caused by new development and expansion of existing development within the South Central City Area. B. The additional SCCA Sewer Fees collected pursuant to this resolution shall be used to finance only the sewer facilities shown in the South Central Area Sewer Deficiency Study for the South Central City Area, the Sanitary Sewer and Storm Drain Financial Implementation Plan for the South Central Area, or the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan. C. The Studies, copies of which are available in the office of the City Engineer, are approved and incorporated herein. D. Development will generate additional sewer flow and will contribute to existing sewer deficiencies within the South Central City Area. E. There is a need in the City of Anaheim for expanding the capacity for the sewer system and for new and expanded construction to contribute its fair share towards these facility costs. Said sewer facilities have been called for in, or are consistent with, the Land Use Element of the City's General Plan. F. The facts and evidence presented establish that there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the described sewer facilities in the South Central City Area and the impacts on the sewer facilities by the types of development described in paragraph three (3) below, for which the corresponding fee is charged, and, also there is a reasonable relationship between the fee's use and the type of development for which the fee is charged in that these sewer facilities accommodate the additional sewerage flow generated by such development. The reasonable relationships or nexus are described 2 in more detail in the Studies referred to above. G. The cost estimates set forth in the "Sanitary Sewer and Storm Drain Financial Implementation Plan for the South Central City Area" study are reasonable cost estimates for constructing facilities, and expanding facilities in the South Central City Area. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Anaheim as follows: 1. Definitions. (a) "New Development" shall mean construction of residential buildings or structures, original construction of commercial, industrial or other non-residential buildings or structures, or the addition of floor space to existing buildings or structures. (b) "Exempted Development" shall mean development exempted by Section ~0.1Z.085.040 of the Anaheim Municipal Code. 2. Continuation of Existinq City-Wide Charges.

(b) The City-wide charges herein provided for are made solely for the privilege of disposing of sewage into the Public Sewerage System, neither labor nor materials being provided for herein. Further, if the City elects to, or has already installed a house connection, the actual cost thereof shall be added to the applicable charge provided for herein. 3. South Central City Area Fee (a) In addition to the sewer fee set forth in subsection 2 above, an additional sewer impact and development fee shall be charged for new and expanded development within the South Central City Area, (SCCA Sewer Fee) at the rates shown on the SCCA Sewer Fee Schedule, attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein by reference which fee shall be paid upon issuance of any building permit, except as otherwise provided by Section 66007 of the Government Code.

Fee Review. On or about March 15, 1996 and each following year, the Public Works Department shall review the estimated cost of the described sewer improvements, the continued need for those improvements and the reasonable relationship between such need and the impacts of the various types of development pending or anticipated and for which the sewer fees are charged. The Public Works Department shall report its findings to the City Council at a noticed public hearing and recommend any adjustment to these sewer fees or other action as may be needed.
