SUMMARY
The City Council established the original Otay Ranch Pedestrian Bridge Development Impact Fee (Pedestrian Bridge DIF) on January 5, 1999 by Ordinance 2767. The original Pedestrian Bridge DIF was set up to fund the construction of the pedestrian bridges between Villages One and Five. On January 7, 2003, by Ordinance No. 2892, the City Council amended the original Pedestrian Bridge DIF to include Otay Ranch Village Six and its fair share of the costs for the bridge improvements. On February 20, 2007, by Ordinance No. 3064, the City Council amended the Pedestrian Bridge DIF to include Otay Ranch Village Two and its fair share of the costs for the bridge improvements.

Tonight, Council will consider the adoption of an update to the Pedestrian Bridge DIF to account for the recent increase in units for Otay Ranch Village Two. The fee, payable at issuance of a building permit, will decrease from $1,114 to $843 for single family dwelling unit and from $826 to $625 for multifamily dwelling units. This will be the third adjustment of the fee since its inception in February 18, 2003. The public hearing has been duly noticed.
