Title

ADMINISTRATIVE BUDGET CHANGE FOR 196 MITIGATION FUND

body

DEPARTMENT:  DCNR

 

ORIGINATOR:  Carol Peterson

 

EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION:  Approved

 

PURPOSE: Administrative Budget Change to correct mitigation database where figures were lumped into Local and Regional Categories and now will be broken down individually for ease of tracking.

 

BACKGROUND: On September 27, 1989, the County Council approved Ordinances #89-103, 89-104 and 89-105 as an interim measure to address developer impacts on parks and recreation and provide a process to collect fees. On July 12, 1991, the County Council approved a new title 26A SCC (Ord 91-026) which codified the requirement of mitigating development impacts on park and recreation facilities. On February 1, 2003, title 26A was replaced by SCC 30.66A (Ord. 02-064). On February 23, 2005 a new GMA compliant SCC 30.66A was approved by the County Council (Ord 04-016) and was updated again by Ordinance 16-099. The park mitigation requirements authorized by SCC 30.66A are designed to mitigate impacts reasonably related to development by allowing payment of a dollar amount which must be used to acquire land or develop park and recreation facilities, which are identified as "necessary to support development." Collected fees are made up of a regional fee, which is used for projects that provide regional benefit, and sometimes a local fee, which supports community and neighborhood park improvements. Fees are collected within defined park service areas and are utilized within that same area, for community and neighborhood park improvements, or pooled with other collected funds for regional improvements (regional parks and trails).  These fees are now being collected and deposited into Regional and Local Districts, instead of individual districts for each fee collected.  This has made it difficult to track individual district amounts and has caused reconciling issues for Finance within the database.  Therefore, Finance has now set up new district specific DACs to alleviate this issue and make it easier to audit in the future.  We are now transferring funds from the old regional/local grouped districts to the individual district specific DACs.
