RESOLUTION NO. 2090
A RESOLUTION DISCONTINUING THE PROGRAM FOR THE DEFERRAL OF SYSTEM
DEVELOPMENT CHARGES FOR SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DWELLINGS AND
REPEALING RESOLUTION 1943
WHEREAS, in 2008, the City of Woodburn faced a significant economic
downturn severely impacfing the building industry and the ability for new
development projects to access capital; and
WHEREAS, in 2009, Ordinance 2457 was adopted to allow the City the ability
to establish a System Development Charge (SDC) deferral program; and
WHEREAS, in 2009, Resolution 1943 was adopted to implement a program
allowing builders to defer the payment of SDCs, for single family residential
dwellings, to the time of occupancy as opposed to the traditional practice of
collecting SDCs at the time of building permit issuance; and
WHEREAS, the City is now anticipating significant residential annexations as
well as the completion of several large subdivisions; and
WHEREAS, the collection of SDC revenue is critical for the public
infrastructure development needed to support new growth in an equitable
manner that protects both existing property tax and utility rate payers; and
WHEREAS, with the more robust economic climate, the City Council
believes that it is in the public interest to discontinue the program for the deferral
of SDCs for single family residential dwellings; NOW, THEREFORE,
THE CITY OF WOODBURN RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That the City's SDC deferral program for single family dwelling
construction is discontinued.
Section 2. That applicants for building permits for single family residential
dwellings shall pay all applicable system development charges at the time of
building permit issuance.
