(Preserving and Cultivating Public Trust) Financial Comments Long range planning activities are primarily funded by the Long Range Planning fee charged on all development applications. The Long Range Planning fee was adopted by the City Council on March 21, 2012 and imposes a fee on most Planning and Building permit activities and some Engineering permit activities of 15% of the permit fee to fund the City's Long Range Planning Program. The Program is, to a lesser degree, also funded by transfers from a combination of other City funds, including the General Fund, Housing Mitigation, Park Maintenance, Drainage Impact, Agriculture Preservation and Open Space, Traffic Impact, Wastewater Impact, and Water Impact funds as well as funds received from grants. These fees are proposed to continue to support vital long range planning requirements over the next two fiscal years and likely beyond.
