County's planned adoption of Capitol Improvment Program postposed
Submitted by paula on Sat, 06/18/2016 - 6:28pm
With the recent vote count on Measure E in El Dorado County still too close to call, the County's Capital Improvement Program and Traffic Impact Mitigation Fee Update have been put on hold.
The County Supervisors had been tentatively scheduled to adopt the two in August, but will now wait until questions raised by the Measure are resolved.
According to the Unofficial Election Night Final Report prepared by the Elections Department for the June 7, 2016 election, Measure E received 51.81% affirmative votes. The Elections Department is currently processing vote by mail ballots and provisional ballots and performing a manual tally of the ballots and will report the results within 30 days of tin accordance with its statutory duties.
Assuming that the final tally indicates that Measure E received a majority vote, it would be considered adopted when the vote is declared by the Board of Supervisors.
There are numerous questions raised by Measure E that need to be resolved before resuming the CIP and TIM Fee Update. County staff is engaged in that
effort and has made it a top priority.
At this time, there is no estimate as to when the CIP and TIM Fee Update will resume. The current TIM Fee rates will remain in place until the CIP and TIM Fee Update is adopted.
