enyon moved Resolution 5498, a resolution to amend Resolution No. 5441 as it relates to the
Capital Improvement Plan for the police impact fee schedule. The motion was seconded.
Council Discussion
Hafferrnan cited the MCA restrictions on using impact fees, stating this is obviously correcting a
deficiency and is not allowed by state law. He commented that this is a Maintenance and operations
(M&O) cost and is not impact fee related; he recognized the equipment is necessary, but stated the
purchase is not allowed by impact fee law.
Mayor Fisher noted council could decide to amend the CI' as a matter of policy, but it is a stretch to
tape this out of impact fees because she also believes it is an M o expense. She emphasized that we
need to find it in the budget and not use impact fees.
The motion failed upon roll call vote with Kenyon voting in favor, Atkinson, Hafferman,
l esner, Larson, Saverud, zauner and Mayor Fisher voting against, and Gabriel absent.
