§ 33-162. Updates to plans and revision of fees.

(a)

The city shall update its land use assumptions and capital improvements plans at least every five (5) years, commencing from the date of adoption of such plans, and shall recalculate the impact fees based thereon in accordance with the procedures set forth in V.T.C.A. Local Government Code, Ch. 395, or in any successor statute.

(b)

The city may review its land use assumptions, impact fees, capital improvements plans and other factors such as municipal expansion or market conditions more frequently than provided in subsection (a) to determine whether the land use assumptions, capital improvements plans and service unit equivalencies should be updated and the impact fee recalculated accordingly, or whether Schedules 1 or 2 should be changed. Schedule 2 may be amended without revising land use assumptions and capital improvements plans at any time prior to the update provided for in subsection (a), provided that the impact fees to be collected under Schedule 2 do not exceed the impact fees assessed under Schedule 1. Public notice and hearing is required to amend Schedule 2 in accordance with the procedure for amending impact fees set forth in V.T.C.A., Local Government Code ch. 395, or in any successor statute.

(c)

If, at the time an update is required pursuant to subsection (a), the city council determines that no change to the land use assumptions, capital improvements plan or impact fee is needed, it may dispense with such update by following the procedures in V.T.C.A. Local Government Code, § 395.0575.

(d)

The city may amend by resolution the land use equivalency table (exhibit 1) at any time prior to the update provided for in subsection (a); provided that the number of service units associated with a particular land use shall not be increased.

(e)

The city may amend any other provisions of this article VII in accordance with procedures for ordinance amendments contained in the city's Charter.
