Fiscal Note
This proposed ordinance change will not change the number of units subject to the impact fees. There is no fiscal impact.
Title
Creating Section 28.150 of the Madison General Ordinances to ensure consistency between Chapter 28 and Chapters 16 and 20 regarding park impact fees.
Body
DRAFTER'S ANALYSIS: Pursuant to Sections 16.23(8)(f) and 20.08, MGO, all new residential development in the City is required to pay impact fees for the acquisition and development of City parks. The proposed section of the general regulations will replace language currently found in Section 28.183(6)(b)4 of the zoning code, which applies to residential units approved as conditional uses, with language that will apply to all new residential units created regardless of whether those units are permitted or conditional uses. This will ensure that the zoning code is consistent with Sections 16.23(8)(f) and 20.08, MGO.
