The service area for impact fees shall be a single City-wide service area. 11. In accordance with RCW 82.02.050, the City shall collect and spend impact fees only for the public facilities defined in this Chapter and RCW 82.02.090 which are addressed by the capital facilities plan element of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The City shall base continued authorization to collect and expend impact fees on revising its Comprehensive Plan in compliance with RCW 36.70A.070 and on the capital facilities plan identifying: a. deficiencies in public facilities serving existing development and the means by which existing deficiencies will be eliminated within a reasonable period of time; b. additional demands placed on existing public facilities by new development; and c. additional public facility improvements required to serve new development. 12. In accordance with RCW 82.02.050, if the City’s capital facilities plan is complete other than for the inclusion of those elements which are the responsibility of a special district, the City may impose impact fees to address those public facility needs for which the City is responsible. 13.

7. Applicants that have been awarded credits prior to the submittal of the complete building permit application pursuant to SDC 21.08.030D. shall submit, along with the complete building permit application, a copy of the letter or certificate prepared by the director pursuant to SDC 21.08.030D. setting forth the dollar amount of the credit awarded. Impact fees, as determined after the application of appropriate credits, shall be collected from the feepayer at the time the building permit is issued by the City for each unit in the development. 8. Where the impact fees imposed are determined by the square footage of the development, a deposit shall be due from the feepayer pursuant to subsection 6. of this section. Deposit and installment percentages shall be based on an estimate, submitted by the feepayer, of the size and type of structure proposed to be constructed on the property. In the absence of an estimate provided by the feepayer, the department shall calculate percentages based on the maximum allowable density/intensity permissible on the property. If the final square footage of the development is in excess of the initial estimate, any difference in the amount of the impact fee will be due prior to the issuance of a building permit, using the same impact fee rate previously assessed. The feepayer shall pay any such difference plus interest, calculated at the statutory rate. If the final square footage is less than the initial estimate, the department shall give a credit for the difference, plus interest at the statutory rate.
