A method to determine which fees were paid needs to be established. Since many old records are no longer available, only an acreage fee collection map has been maintained. While not completely accurate, it is the best information we have available. Staff recommends adopting the map as the official record. The only way to contest the map will be to provide definitive records and receipts to show amount paid linked to a definite property description.
Staff suggests a six-month period to allow a request to be submitted.
For properties that paid flat rates based on meter size, we reserve the right to recalculate demand-based fees as a determining factor of the amount reimbursed. Finally, a statement that the fee credits do not apply to redevelopment projects is recommended by Staff.
