Equitable Share of Public Facility Costs: as used in the development of SDCs, the City's cost of <br /> providing system capacity, allocated to new development relative to the development's impact or use <br /> of system capacity. <br /> <br /> r Impact Measurement: the unit of system capacity used to determine the relative effect of a new <br /> development on the capacity of a specific system. For example, plumbing fixture units are used to <br /> determine the effect of development on the fsartitary~-sevverj w2~s3teVuater system. <br /> Impervious Surface: used as an impact measure for the.~:~term-sewet] stormwater SDC. An <br /> impervious surface is that which prevents or retards saturation of water into the surface of the soil <br /> or causes water to run off the surface in greater quantity or an increased rate of flow compared to <br /> the natural condition of the property before development. Asphalt, concrete, and roofing materials <br /> are examples of impervious materials. <br /> Improvement Fee: the portion of the system-specific SDC charged to cover an equitable share of <br /> the capital improvements required to increase capacity of the system to accommodate new <br /> development. <br /> Level of Service: (per unit of development) - as used in development of SDC rates, represents tlt <br /> amount of system (orsub-system) capacity provided at a certain point in time. The current level of <br /> service is used as the basis for determining the system impacts of new development. This is <br /> presented in terms of the appropriate impact measure. , <br /> Methodologies: This document entitled "METHODOLOGIES: City of Eugene, Systems <br /> Development Charges" and any amendment or modification made hereto. <br /> MWMC: Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission -responsible for regional wastewater <br /> treatment. <br /> Phys~il liprovements (far.~~~d# red~e~tiion/r~iti~~t~~an') 4j~#; tt~ti~!` e~~ried <br /> ~~ra~#ru~cted, at the de~ei0p~r'~ <±~~Ose~ ~vi~ich.,i)s~f~lvV~sd ~~>illk~~~ ;~e.Propg!l <br /> r~v~?n~r or ov+mers a9e~ nt~t~a }~r~f'~tm,~~'activ~y e~';~1'C+u3~~'`~1r~€~~! ti'ibi~te: <br /> Proportionate Share of Public Facility Costs: the cost of capital improvements which are <br /> reasonably attributable to new development. <br /> PFU: Plumbing Fixture Units -defined in the state Uniform Plumbing Code. A rating assigned to <br /> different drainage fixtures depending on drain pipe or fixture size. <br /> Reimbursement Fee: the portion of the system-speafic SDC charged to recoup the community's <br /> past ar ~ufreMt investment in extra capacity in anticipation of future growth. An example is the <br /> faality equalization charge established by MWMC to recoup the regional investment in extra capacity <br /> made for the wastewater treatment facility. <br /> Replacement Costs: the cost (in can-ent fiscal year dollars) of replacing existing system capacity. <br /> SDC Eligible Costs: system value net of assessable costs, grants and outstanding debt. This cost <br /> is allocated to all development in proportion to its impact on system capacity. <br /> Proposed Methodologies: City of Eugene SDCs (Effective March 01, 1997) Page B-2 <br /> <br />
