INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Finance & Governance Committee
FROM: David Rosen, Parks & Recreation Fiscal Analyst
Vicky Carlsen, Finance Director
DATE: August 4, 2023
SUBJECT: Ordinance Updating Fire and Parks Impact Fees Rate Schedule
ISSUE
Per TMC 16.26.080, the Fire Impact Fee Schedule is to be updated annually. Additionally, per TMC
16.28.080, the Park Impact Fee schedule is to be updated annually. The last updates were made via
Ordinance 2694 for Fire Impact Fees and Ordinance 2695 for Park Impact Fees, approved by City
Council in December of 2022, creating the 2023 Fire Impact Fee Schedule in Figure 16-1 "Fee
Schedule" as Exhibit B to Ordinance 2694 and the 2023 Parks Impact Fee Schedule in Figure 16-1
"Fee Schedule" as Exhibit B to Ordinance 2695. Staff seeks to update the Fire and Park Impact Fee
schedules for 2024 to include revised rate structures reflecting current economic conditions.
BACKGROUND
Fire and Park Impact Fees are one-time charges assessed by a given government against a new
development project as a means of helping pay for new or expanded public facilities that will be needed
to address increased demand for services created by the development itself. Fire Impact fees support
the development of facilities related to Fire operations and the purchase of capital items for Fire
operations. Park Impact fees are apportioned out to specific projects and support the acquisition and
development of parks, trails, natural areas, and recreation facilities and are accounted for within the six-
year parks Capital Improvement Plan. The developer or builder of a proposed residential or commercial
development pay the impact fees at the time a building permit is issued.
ANALYSIS
Authority to impose these fees is granted via Revised Code of Washington (RCW) as well as the
Washington Administrative Code (WAC). While no RCW or WAC exists that imposes any restrictions
on or creates any requirements concerning how a city updates its fee schedule, the City has adopted
an index to inform the setting of fees. TMC 16.26.080 (1) for Fire Impact Fees and TMC 16.28.080 (1)
for Park Impact Fees require the use of the Construction Cost Index for Seattle (June -June) published
by the Engineering News Record to calculate annual inflation adjustments in the impact fee rates. The
index calculates general construction costs across 20 U.S. cities. The table below reflects the
Construction Cost Index (CCI) for Seattle from June 2022 to June 2023.
Note: Due to rounding, the proposed fee increase may not be the same in terms of percentage change.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Fire Impact Fees and Park Impact Fees are not a general fund revenue source; therefore, passage of
this ordinance does not directly create any general fund inflows or outflows. Also, due to Fire Impact
and Park Impact Fees only being earned when development occurs, they are considered a volatile
revenue source for the purposes of budgeting.
RECOMMENDATION
Department staff recommends the Finance & Governance Committee approve the proposed
ordinances and forward it to the August 28th Committee of the Whole meeting.
