Hi Dan,
In order to do something similar to what he is saying that the Mayor talked to him about, we would have to pass and ordinance changing system development charge code. I don’t have any idea if this is something the Council wants to entertain. Should Mr. Baker make a formal written request to the CM to ask the Council if they want staff to bring back an Ordinance changing the SDC payment? If they do then this should be limited to Commercial and Industrial customers and possibly multifamily 5 units or more. It should not be available to SF residential, duplexes, triplexes, or 4-plexes. Let me know how you want me to respond to him regarding his question.
Also, something else to consider is now we will have to build our budget based on pay payment plans for those types of developments. Right now I only budget for SF homes which wouldn’t be affected if we follow the recommendations above.
Regards,

Subject: Question from John Baker
Hi Gerald –
Here is a quick follow-up question from a conversation I had with the Mayor two weeks ago.
Is there a possibility that the Caterpillar Clubhouse could follow a fee payment structure that was more in line with Clackamas County for the SDCs?
Mayor Thompson said the the initial payment was a $500 administration fee with (in our case) the residual $203,000 being paid off over a period of ten years. I haven’t seen any wriggle room yet on the fee but this was the only thing I could see that would give them a little hope in this process.
If this could be stretched out then the community could come alongside just like the homeowners help a developer to pay for the SDC charges.
Thanks –
John Baker
