Introduced by: Joe T. May | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Issuance of building permits based on capital improvements. Allows any county that has an average annual growth rate of five percent or greater to establish the maximum number of building permits for new residences to be issued in each calendar year. As a condition to the exercise of this authority, the county shall (i) establish reasonable, maximum debt ratios for the county after consultation with its financial advisors, (ii) adopt a capital improvements program and annually fund the program, and (iii) annually fund at least ten percent of the capital improvements program with current revenues, exclusive of debt service or funds collected pursuant to proffered zoning conditions. The ordinance may provide for the issuance of building permits for new residential units beyond the established maximum upon the payment by the permit holder of a proportional cash contribution for school and other local capital facilities' costs. Any such payment shall be subject to a reasonable credit for actual contributions to local capital facilities' costs that have been made pursuant to a proffered zoning condition.
