19.06.040 Multimodal TIF rate schedule.
A. The multimodal TIF rate schedule shall be as shown in Table 19.06.040(A). A revised multimodal TIF rate schedule shall be adopted each year by the city council subsequent to the adoption of the six-year transportation improvement program (TIP). The public works department shall present TIP projects for adoption each year along with the estimated project costs.
B. Multimodal TIFs will be responsive to the cost of improvements included in the six-year transportation improvement program for arterial streets, and the type of development contemplated.
C. For purposes of this chapter, the city is comprised of one transportation impact fee zone as set forth in Table 19.06.040(A), Multimodal TIF Rate Schedule. A person trip ratio and a multimodal TIF rate are identified for one peak hour person trip for each land use type classified in the ITE Trip Generation Manual.
D. The multimodal TIF rate study and proportionate share calculations shall be performed using the computerized WCOG regional travel demand forecast model. A basic multimodal TIF base rate shall be established for one peak hour person trip. The total multimodal TIF is determined using the ITE Trip Generation Manual, the vehicle-to-person trip conversion factor, and the land use designation by the development to determine the total number of p.m. peak hour person trips generated by the development. The total multimodal TIF shall be equivalent to the multimodal TIF rate multiplied by the number of peak hour person trips.
E. To further implement the infill land use strategy and multimodal transportation goals and policies of the Bellingham comprehensive plan, new development and redevelopment in urban villages with adopted master plans or mixed use urban development center zoning are eligible for person trip reduction credits listed in Table 19.06.040(B), Urban Village TIF Reduction Credits. Auto-oriented commercial and drive-through developments are not eligible.
