(1) The individual assessment for a residential use shall include, without limitation, the data sources and calculations used to derive the average persons per unit for the type of dwelling units proposed. The impact fee per dwelling unit shall be calculated according to the following formula:

Fee = persons per unit X occupancy factor X net cost per functional population, where "persons per unit" is the average number of persons residing in occupied dwelling units of the proposed housing type, adjusted by the average occupancy rate for the proposed housing type. "Occupancy factor" shall be 0.50, as identified in the adopted Capital Facilities Plan. Net Cost per Functional Population shall be as identified in the adopted Capital Facilities Plan.

(2) The individual assessment for a nonresidential use shall include, without limitation, the following elements:

a. A projection of the number of vehicular trips entering and departing from the project during an average weekday.

b. The average number of persons occupying vehicles entering the project.

c. The average number of hours spent by employees and visitors at the site during an average weekday.

d. Once the appropriate land use, trip generation, and other factors have been determined, the impact fee shall be calculated using the following formula:

Fee = functional population/1,000 sf X net cost per functional population, where "functional population/1,000 sf" equals "employee hours/1,000 sf" plus "visitor hours/1,000 sf" divided by 16 hours/day. "Employee hours/1,000 sf" equals employees/1,000 sf times 10 hours/day; "visitor hours/1,000 sf" equals visitors/1,000 sf times 1 hour/visit; "visitors/1,000 sf" equals weekday ADT/1,000 sf times average vehicle occupancy minus employees/1,000 sf; "weekday ADT/1,000 sf" equals one-way average daily trips (total trip ends divided by 2). "Net cost per functional population" shall be as identified in the adopted Capital Facilities Plan.

e. The assumptions and conclusions from which any projections are made. If the assumptions or conclusions are derived from the current edition of the ITE manual or other standard reference materials, the materials shall be identified, and appropriate excerpts or specific references provided. Otherwise, the reasoning underlying the assumptions and conclusions shall be clearly stated in writing.

f. Such other information as the Impact Fee Administrator shall reasonably request.

(3) The Impact Fee Administrator shall determine the fee based on the review of the independent assessment and the guidelines and formulae described in the preceding Section 8-5-101, "Fire Impact Fee Schedule," and Sections 8-5-102(1) and (2) above.
