Public Hearing: Land Use Assumptions and Infrastructure Improvements Plan
end
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION:
Summary Recommendation
Conduct a public hearing on proposed Land Use Assumptions (LUA) and Infrastructure Improvements Plan (IIP). (Engineering) (David Wostenberg)
end
STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
This public hearing supports the City Council’s strategic outcome of Respected and Responsible ensuring statutory fairness and legislative due process in the adoption of the LUA and IIPs for Police, Fire, Parks and Recreation, and Streets Facilities.
REPORT:
Arizona Revised Statutes §9-463.05 defines the LUA as 10-year projections of changes in land uses, densities, intensities and population for specific service areas. Yuma has two service areas - the north service area and the south service area with 56th Street as the dividing line running east-west. The statute further defines an IIP as a written plan that identifies each necessary public service or facility expansion that is proposed to be the subject of a development fee.
This public hearing will involve the LUA (projections) that will form the basis for both the IIPs and Development Fees to be assessed in each service area. While the Land Use Assumptions consist of a single report, the IIPs are separated into a Fire and Police Facilities IIP, a Street Facilities IIP, and a Parks IIP.
Copies of each IIP and the LUA are available on the City’s website under Engineering at the Development Engineering webpage. Copies are also available at the City Clerk’s Office and attached as Exhibits to this public hearing item for the November 18 regular City Council meeting agenda.
The City’s Consultant, PSOMAS, will first present to City Council, followed by comments from the public and discussion among City Council.
Adoption of the LUA and IIPs are currently scheduled for the January 6, 2027 regular City Council meeting in accordance with the statutory requirement for adoption at least thirty days after the public hearing and “approved or disapproved within sixty days after the public hearing.” It is therefore recommended that if City Council desires to amend either the LUA or any of the IIPs, that City Council seek to do so after the close of the public hearing or at the December 2nd regular City Council meeting.
After adoption of the LUA and IIPs, the City’s consultant will draft a Development Fee Report which will be posted on the City’s website and available in the City Clerk’s Office and notice a public hearing on the proposed Development Fees.
