A. The cost/value of existing land inventory and developed neighborhood park facilities shall be determined on the basis of city and county records. The cost of existing land and facilities shall not include the value of donated land and facilities.

B. The projected cost of future developed parkland and facilities shall be determined on the basis of the capital improvements program or facilities plans adopted by the city council.

C. To determine the improvement fee on a dollars-per-person basis, the costs of future land and developed park facilities shall be divided by the number of new persons for whom the park system provides service. This represents an average cost of park development to serve each person who is added by new residential construction. The charge for future land and facilities shall be designated as an improvement fee.

D. The costs of compliance with Oregon law in the determination of SDCs shall include the estimated cost of landscape architecture, engineering, legal, planning, administrative and accounting services. Compliance costs per person shall be determined on the basis of projected population growth. The compliance costs shall be designated a reimbursement fee or an improvement fee or both.

E. The charge per person for land shall be determined by dividing the adjusted total cost of unused capacity in the existing inventory of parks facilities by the number of persons for whom the land provides. The charge for existing park facilities and land inventory shall be designated a reimbursement fee.

F. The calculation shall be done on a citywide basis so that the charge reflects the average cost per person throughout the city. The established charge per person shall not exceed the sum of the reimbursement fee and the improvement fee.

G. The number of persons per dwelling unit shall be determined for single-family and various types of multiple-family dwelling units using the average number of persons found to inhabit each type of dwelling unit, regardless of the actual number of inhabitants in any particular unit. Each space for a manufactured dwelling unit located in a mobile home park shall be considered a multiple-family dwelling unit. [Ord. 791 Art. 3; Ord. 729 Art. 3.]
