If this option is selected, the County agrees to then <br />consider adoption of such procedures as are legally available to develop a reimbursement <br />mechanism, such as Local Improvement District, latecomers' agreement, or other legal <br />reimbursement mechanism whereby other property owners who develop their property <br />beyond existing uses and benefit from such improvements at a later date will be charged <br />a fair pro-rata share of the cost of such improvements from which they are then <br />benefiting and from which the applicant can then be reimbursed for its payment of the <br />public share of such improvement. Nothing in this section shall be construed to require <br />the County to agree to the establishment of an LID, a latecomer's reimbursement or other <br />legal reimbursement mechanism unless and until the County has complied with all of the <br />constitutional and statutory requirements for consideration of such mechanisms, and then <br />only if the County determines, in its sole discretion, that establishment of the <br />reimbursement mechanism is consistent with those requirements. <br />c. If the applicant provides the County with a proposed schedule of MPR development and <br />the resulting offsite traffic mitigation measures for which they expect there to be a <br />County share, The Public Works Department shall include all projected County shares of <br />those off-site traffic improvements in its proposed 6-year capital improvement program, <br />so that the County can plan for funding within that 6-year timeframe. <br />C-8 Gran ts and Loca l Match. Any portion of the improvement costs that may be funded by <br />federal and/or state grants shall be applied to the County's share of the improvement first. The <br />applicant's share of the improvement cost (or a portion thereof) shall be used to pay the "local <br />match" portion of any grants. If the total grant amount exceeds the County's proportionate share <br />of the improvement cost, that excess portion of the grant shall be applied to reduce the <br />applicant's proportionate share of the improvement cost. <br />C-9 Offsi te lmprovemeats. Subject to the provisions of Condition C-6, Proportionate Shares, the <br />following offsite traffic improvements shall be required, at approximately the thresholds of <br />development indicated. These improvements shall be imposed as conditions of approval of the <br />site development plan and/or preliminary plat or binding site plan for that particular phase or <br />subphase that includes the threshold of development indicated for the particular improvement <br />and shall be constructed prior to final plat or binding site plan approval or occupancy, whichever <br />is applicable and occurs first. As described in more detail in Condition C-17, based on the <br />results of the monitoring program, the County may modify traffic improvement mitigation <br />measures at these or other intersections or road segments or may adjust the timing of these offsite <br />mitigation measures if the results of the monitoring justify such changes. <br />Suncadia MPR Conditions of Approval <br />December 2, 2008 <br />Page 19
