Item 2 - Discussion of Alternative Growth Management Fee Program. In July, the Board hosted a Growth Management Summit to receive input and recommendations regarding the County’s concurrency management system and the potential replacement of concurrency as one of the County’s primary growth management tools. At the Economic Development Committee meeting on August 23rd, staff summarized the presentations given at the Board’s Growth Management Workshop in July and asked for direction on how to proceed. Staff provided the Committee with several options: retain the existing concurrency management system; retain a consultant to prepare a new impact fee study and implement impact fees consistent with the results of the study; or retain a consultant to develop and implement an alternative program to address growth management and transportation funding issues. The Committee recommended that staff focus on retaining a consultant to develop and implement an alternative program. They further recommended that staff: 1) identify an approach; 2) determine what type of consultant will be needed; 3) provide an estimate of the cost; and 4) determine what the final work product will be. The attached document includes the above information as well as a proposed timeline for completing the project. Staff is asking for direction to proceed.
