SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The purpose of the work session is to explore why and how Impact Fees work in Idaho for local communities. Then the City Council will learn about past efforts of the City of McCall and
current efforts of the McCall Fire District to implement Impact Fees.
In 2008, the City of McCall had an Impact Fee Report prepared by BBC Research & Consulting, Spink Butler and Galena Consulting (see attached Report). The report calculated Impact Fees
in the categories of police, parks and streets. The document presented the full cost recovery fees based on the City’s demographic data and infrastructure needs at that time. Ultimately,
that City Council chose not implement Impact Fees.
In the 2018 McCall Area Comprehensive Plan, it states that the City should “Conduct an Impact Fee Study to assure adequate infrastructure and public services” as a mid-term policy goal
in the Implementation Matrix (p. 165). In order to look at Impact Fees for the City of McCall, a new Impact Fee study would need to be conducted. Council also identified impact fees
and mitigating impacts of growth as a priority for 2023 during Council’s annual retreat.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Discuss if City Staff should proceed with preparation of a scope of work and budget to prepare a current Impact Fee Study for the City of McCall and provide direction to staff.
