City Council Meeting

Jackson BarlowThat's in the statute. We will look at what the impact is from both residential and non-residential development because all types of development are demanding put pressure on capital facilities. But the statute does indicate residential development. It's collected for capacity improvements for an off-site facility. So we are talking about system level kinds of things, fire stations, fire apparatus, road improvements, those kinds of things. that there is a benefit that's received. I mentioned that. The payer pays the cash proffer that those dollars are then used to expand capacity in that facility and that there's a need in excess of the public facility capacity at the time of rezoning. This is unique to Virginia law with the cash proffer system,

And to your question, too, on the capital operating distinction, So some of those other jurisdictions that I showed with other similar models, those are complete models with operating and capital impacts as well. So we do fiscal models that cover the operating impact of a new fire station because that's going to be 15% of the full cost, 85% is going to be the ongoing operations and the shift that is associated with the apparatus. So that is part of our core services as well.

Stacy HallThank you for the presentation. We have a, for example, we have two pre-application meetings that are after this. We have a fire station that we're considering. We have a Willard Sherwood Center that we're considering. Are any of these things that we're talking about doing or programs or buildings that we're talking about, you know, building, are any of those that can we apply any of these retroactively because we just did blank or we just bought a brand new $4 million fire truck? Is anything that we've done to date that we're looking forward to, can we go back and say, well, I think you know what

Thank you. So that kind of puts things in perspective, I guess, with if we agree to do Willard Sherwood, we will be signing on to this in a couple months. If we agree to do a new fire station, so at the time of the rezoning is when it would need to be done. So there's a bit of a disincentive then, or I guess an incentive to delay hearing new projects we've secured potentially this opportunity that we don't want to miss out on. So what is the timetable like? I think it said in the staff report that we would, the project is estimated to be completed by mid-2026. Reasonably from a staff perspective, what are we looking for if all goes well, if this is something that it seems like it's beneficial and would help us, when would we be talking
