charging an Etiwanda/San Sevaine Area Drainage Improvement Fee; and
WHEREAS, a master plan of drainage study of the impacts of contem-
plated future development on existing public facil,ities in the Etiwanda/San

improvements. The study, entitled "Etiwanda/San Sevaine Area Master Plan of
Drainage", was prepared by BSI Consultants, Inc., is dated August 1989, and
was adopted on August 2, 1989; and
WHEREAS, an annual review of the Etiwanda/San Sevaine Area Master
Plan of Drainage is required along with the review and adjustment of said
drainage improvement fees; and
WHEREAS, the Etiwanda/San Sevaine Area Master Plan of Drainage and
the Etiwanda/San Sevaine Area Drainage Fees Adjustment - January 1, 1990, was
available for public inspection and review fourteen (14) days prior to this
public hearing; and

A. The purpose of this fee is to finance drainage facilities to
reduce the impacts of flooding caused by new development, within the Etw+anda/
San Sevaine Local Drainage Area;
B. The drainage fees collected pursuant to this resolution shall be
used to finance only the public facilities described or identified in the
"Etiwanda/San Sevaine Area Master Plan of Drainage";
C. After considering the study and analysis prepared by BSI Consul-
tants, Inc., entitled "Etiwanda/San Sevaine Area, Master Plan of Drainage", and
the testimony received at a public hearing on February 1, 1989,.the Council
.approved said study on Augu$~t. 2, lg89v and further finds that ,t~h~ new develop-
ment in, the Etwianda/San Sevaine Local Drainage Area will generate additional
flood hazards within the impacted area as described in the "Etiwanda/San
Sevaine Area Master Plan of Drainage", and will contribute to the degradation
of the public health and safety in that Etiwanda/San Sevaine Local Drainage
Area;

D. There is a need in this described impact area for drainage
facilities which have not been cosntructed or have been constructed, but new
development has not contributed its fair share towards these facility costs
and said facilities have been called for in or are consistent with the City's
Public Health and Safety Element of its General Plan;
E. The facts and evidence presented establish that there is a
reasonable relationship between the need for the described public facilities
and the impacts on development for which the corresponding fee is charged,
and, also there is a reasonable relationship between the fee's use and the
type of development for which the fee is charged, as these reasonable
relationships or nexus are in more detail described in the study referred ].to
above;
F. The cost estimates set forth in the "Etiwanda/San Sevaine Area
Draiange Fees Adjustment - January 1, 1990" are reasonable cost estimates for
constructing these facilities, and the fees expected to be generated by new
development will not exceed the total of these costs.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga does
hereby resolve that:
1. Definitions. For purposes of this resolution:
(a) "Benefit area" is that property which is generally tribu-
tary to that particular drainage facility.

after exclusion of the area of all public street and highway rights-
of-way and public lands, with respect to which a Buildin~ Permit is
issued.
2. A drainage improvement fee shall be assessed upon approval of a
tentative map, a parcel map, the waiver of a parcel map, director reviews,
site approval, location and.development plan, conditional use permit, or the
issuance of a building permit for development in the Etiwanda/San Sevaine
Local Drainage Area and shall be paid either prior to the recording of a sub-
division map, a parcel map, the waiver of a parcel map or the issuance of a
building permit, whichever occurs first, in the benefit area depicted~and
described in the "Etiwanda/San Sevadne Area Master Plan of Drainage"..F'W~ien
fees are collected upon the issuance of a building permit, the amount of the
fee and the area for which the fee shall be considered paid shall be deter-
mined by the Building Official. When fees are collected prior to the record-
ing of a final or parcel map, the amount of the fee and the area for which the
fee shall be considered paid shall be determined by the City Engineer. In
either case, the Building Official or the City Engineer shall determine if the
development lies within this benefit area, the type of development and the
corresponding fee to be charged in accordance with this resolution.
