WHEREAS, the City of Glendale retained TischlerBise to conduct a study to analyze and
assess growth and development projections for the City of Glendale to determine the additional
demand on certain City facilities, equipment and vehicles as permitted and required by A.R.S.
§ 9-463.05; and
WHEREAS, TischlerBise prepared certain Land Use Assumptions and an Infrastructure
Improvement Plan, which analyzed among other things the existing levels of service provided by
the City, the future anticipated need for additional expenditures related to new development in
order to maintain those levels of service for the various categories of development and other
potential revenue sources related to new development that could be used to offset the impacts of
new development, all in accordance with A.R.S. § 9-463.05; and
WHEREAS, the Report has been presented to, and reviewed by, the City Council of the
City of Glendale, who have determined: (1) that the proposed update of the existing fee schedule
to the impact fees set forth in the Report are necessary to offset some of the costs associated with
meeting future City facilities, equipment and vehicle needs pursuant to the development
projections of the City; (2) that the proposed development impact fees bear a reasonable
relationship to the burden imposed on the City to provide additional capital items for new residents
and development to maintain appropriate levels of service, and provides a benefit to these new
residents reasonably related to the revised and new fees; and (3) that the amount of the fees are
roughly proportional to the pro rata share of the additional capital items needed to provide adequate
municipal services to the new development, while maintaining the existing levels of service
currently provided to City residents and businesses; and
WHEREAS, the City, after public notice and hearing on June 25, 2019, adopted the Land
