Annual and Five-Year Development Impact Fee Report <br />Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2025 <br /> <br />City of Redwood City 35 <br />Park Impact Fee <br />• The purpose of the Parks Impact Fee is to augment recreational opportunities through the <br />improvement of parks, as defined in Section 18.257 of the City’s Municipal Code, in order <br />to compensate for increased demand for City facilities and services brought about by new <br />development and the associated increase in population. <br />• In FY 2024-25, the City’s service standard was 2.75 acres of park area for every 1,000 <br />residents/resident-equivalents. The City established the proportionate use of and demand <br />for parks by residents and workers in the City. These established standards/needs and <br />metrics ensure a reasonable relationship between the land uses paying the fees and the <br />identified public facilities. The reasonable relationship between the Parks Impact Fee and <br />the purpose for which it is charged is demonstrated in the adopted Nexus Analysis for <br />Redwood City Park Fee Update (2022 Study). <br />• The unexpended balance will be used for land acquisition for new parks (e.g., Downtown <br />Neighborhood and Mt. Carmel/ Eagle Hill/ Edgewood Neighborhoods) and the conversion <br />of traffic islands to pocket parks, as well as capacity-enhancing improvements to existing <br />parks and recreation centers, and synthetic turf projects. All identified improvements are <br />needed to mitigate the impacts of future development on the City’s park and recreation <br />network. Each project is listed below in Table 24. Information about the total project <br />cost, the estimated start year, and other funding sources are noted. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />ATTY/RESO.0124/CC RESO ACCEPTING THE DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES REPORT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024-25 - ATTACHMENT A <br />REV: 12-05-25 MI <br />
