A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH
AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 96-71
REGARDING THE LIBRARY DEVELOPMENT FEE
The City Council of the City of Huntington Beach hereby resolves as follows:
Section 1. Purpose.
The purpose of this resolution is to increase the Library Development Fee to the
maximum levels as supported by Report entitled"Library Development Fee,"which the City
Council previously approved pursuant to Resolution No. 96-71.
Section 2. Findings.
Pursuant to Resolution No. 96-71, the City Council found that the cost for library
facilities and materials sufficient to offset the demand created by new development, based upon
square footage of new development, is as follows:
Residential $0.44
Commercial
Office $0.09
Retail $0.04
Service $0.04
Industrial
Light $0.09
Heavy $0.05
Warehouse $0.00
Notwithstanding this information, the City Council set the Library Development Fee in
1966 to be $0.25 per square foot of gross floor area for residential development projects and
$0.03 per square foot of gross floor area of a commercial or industrial development project,
provided that no fee will be charged for warehouse projects. These lower amounts were set
because of a concern by the City Council that any Library Development Fee would negatively

impact new development. However,the past three years have shown no data suggesting that the
Library Development Fee has retarded new development. Consequently, the City Council now
chooses to set the Library Development Fee at the maximum level supported by the Library
Development Fee Report.
Section 3. Amount of the Library Development Fee for Residential Devclopment
Projects.. Section 5 of Resolution No. 96-71 is hereby amended to read as follows:
"The Library Development Fee is hereby established to be 50.44
per square foot of gross floor area of a residential development
project."

Development Projects. Section 6 of Resolution No. 96-71 is hereby amended to read as
follows:
"The Library Development Fee is hereby established to be 50.04
per square foot of gross floor area of a non-residential
development project, except that a warehouse project shall be
charged no fee."
