attached hereto and incorporated as Exhibit A.

E. That the revised Districts' fees collected pursuant
to this Resolution shall be used to finance, or
where appropriate, to provide reimbursement for

F. That there is a reasonable relationship between the
proposed revised Districts' fee's use for the
District improvements and the affected subdivision
and building permit approvals to which the fee
applies because this new development will directly
benefit from the improved traffic circulation
provided for by the completion of the Districts'
improvements.
G. That there continues to be a reasonable relation-
ship between the need for the Districts' improve-
ments and the affected subdivision and building
permit approvals because the Districts' improve-
ments will help mitigate the additional traffic
congestion impacts generated by those approvals.

WPX/TBM/RES242499
H. That the proposed construction schedule for the
completion of Districts, improvements as set forth
in the respective Bridge and Major Thoroughfare
Construction Fee Districts' Fee Analysis Reports,
attached hereto, to each report, is adopted.
Section 4. Urgency. Pursuant to Section 66017(b) of the
Government Code this Resolution is adopted as an extension
of the urgency measure adopted by Resolution 91-127 and the
fee revisions set forth in Section 2 shall take effect on
September 13, 1991 upon adoption of this Resolution by a
four-fifths vote of the City Council and shall remain in
effect for a period of 30 days. This extension of the
urgency ordinance is adopted due to an immediate threat to
the public health, welfare and safety of the City. The
findings of the City Council are as follows:
A. Failure to adopt the urgency measure would result
in a funding shortfall in the two B&T Districts.
B. Such a funding shortfall would cause further delays
in construction of the roads and bridges to be
funded in these B&T Districts.
C. Construction delays would further exacerbate the
current traffic congestion in the Santa Clarita
Valley.
D. The sooner the District fees are in place, the
sooner the projects will have a positive
environmental effect on the area and residents, as
the traffic congestion will decrease.
Section 5. That the City Clerk shall certify to the adoption
of this Resolution, and shall record a certified copy of
this Resolution with the Los Angeles County Recorder.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 10th day of

CONSTRUCTION FEE DISTRICT
FEE ANALYSIS REPORT
BACKGROUND
February 26, 1991
The Bououet Canyon Bridge and Major Thoroughfare (B&T) Construction Fee District
was approved by the Board of Supervisors on Dctober 1, 1985. The District was
established to provide for the construction of five projects: the improvements
Of the Rio Vista Road, Newhall Ranch Road (Route 126), Golden Valley Road,
Plum Canyon Road, and Whites Canyon Road, originally estimated at $24.55 million.
The fees charged to new development to finance these improvements were as
follows:
Residential Property:
Single Family $2,650/unit
Townhouse $2,120/unit
Apartment $1,855/unit
Non -Residential Property:
Neighborhood Conmerclal S2,650/acre
Other Commercial 513,250/acre
Industrial $7,95/acre
Since the adoption of this District, the estimated project costs have changed
substantially due to construction cost inflation increases, the increased scope
Of the Whites Canyon Road project, and elimination of earlier projected public
agency contributions to the District which are not materializing. The total
estimated cost for the completion of the District improvements is now
235.4 million.
F=E ANALYSIS
We have analyzed the remaining amount of potential develooment to be constructed
in the District and have calculated the new fee rates needed to balanr.e the
