(1} The 1979 Thermalito Drainage Study was adopted by the Board of Supervisors on October 21, 1980, by Ordinance No. 2154. Said study established the location, size and priority of construction which would resolve drainage problems in the Thermalito area; and [2} The Board of Supervisors adopted the drainage fees established in said study by Resolution 52-106 and, based on public comment, adjusted the development 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12' 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 fee by Resolution 82-173; and (3} Said fees were adjusted by the Board of Supervisors on August 7, 1990. by Resolution 90-123, based on the ratio of: the .luly 1990 ENR CCI (formerly "Engineering News Record Construction Cost Index"} value of 4734.77 divided by the 1979 ENR CC1 rounded down to the nearest $5.00; and (4} Said fees have been kept in a separate fund specifically for drainage improvements in the Thermalito area. (b} Chico Vecino Drainage Study and Fees [ 1 } The 1978 Chico Vecino Drainage Study was adopted on October 18, '# 983, by Ordinance No. 2376. Said study established the location, size, priority of construction and estimated cost of facilities necessary to resolve drainage problems in the Chico Vecino area; and t2} On April 20, 1982, the Board of Supervisors adopted the drainage fees established by said study by Resolution 82-65, The ENR CCI in April 1982 was 3729.65. (c} It is in the best interest of the public to have said fees reviewed annually and adjusted as necessary to insure there are sufficient funds to install the required facilities, based on the change in the ENR CCI, rounded down to the nearest 55.00. The October 1996 ENR CCI was 5708.25. [d} The Board of Supervisors hereby #inds that the fees amended and adapted by this Article do not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of recovering the actual expenses for the construction of the drainage facilities specified by the adopted plans and necessitated by the new development upon which such fees will be imposed. The Board further finds that there is a reasonable relationship between said fees and the cost of the drainage facilities needed by and attributable to said new development. [e} The drainage fees imposed pursuant to this Article will be collected far public improvements or facilities far which specific accounts have been established and 2 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 funds appropriated and for which the County has adopted drainage facilities plans.

Drainage impact fees are hereby assessed and levied upon the owners of real property located in the unincorporated area of the County of Butte within the Thermalito Drainage Area and within the Chico Vecino Drainage Area in the amounts specifiied in Sec. 3-93 below and payable prior to the occurrence of any of the following events affecting such property: (a} The construction of a new building or structure on such property; (b} An addition to an existing building or structure on such property which results in an expansion of the floor area by 50% or more; (c} A change or expansion in the use of such property or any building or structure located thereon which results in an increase in the storm drainage generated by the use of the property or any building or structure located thereon and which requires the issuance of a County permit; or fd} The filing of a final subdivision map or parcel map dividing such property. Sec. 3-93. Amount of drainage impact fees. (a) Rationale for Fee Amounts. The drainage impact fees specified below have been determined based upon the estimated costs of the facilities necessary to provide drainage for the specified areas and upon the anticipated coefficient of runoff generated by various types of land use. The coefficient ("C") is the anticipated coefficient of runoff generated by various types of land use. The coeffiicient I"C"} is expressed as a decimal value based upon standard engineering principles and equations for determining runofif volumes. (b} Thermalito Drainage Area.
