The purpose of this article is to secure an adequate level of access to services and facilities for all development within the city. The city does not intend this article to prohibit the development of land within the city, but rather to provide a means by which development that would generally not be approved by the city, because adequate public facilities and services do not currently exist, may, through the developer's provision of these facilities and services, be approved. By adoption of this article, the city intends to:

(1)

Establish what constitutes adequate public facilities;

(2)

Establish when the provision of adequate public facilities and services is required;

(3)

Establish those types of development that shall not be subject to the adequate public facilities and service requirements;

(4)

Establish a review process that ensures all development proposals are treated uniformly and fairly and in accordance with the purposes for the adoption of this article; and

(5)

Authorize the director of public works to create administrative guidelines to support this article.
