Council Authorizes Special Assessment for Delinquent Solid Waste Charges
The City Council considered a resolution to address delinquent solid waste charges by authorizing the county assessor to process these accounts as a special assessment on property tax bills. This process, conducted annually, involves collaborating with Athens Services and the LA County Tax Assessor's Office. Delinquent accounts are those with unpaid trash collection fees of 60 days or more as of June 30th. Property owners receive multiple notifications prior to the public hearing. A speaker expressed concerns about charges for accounts not belonging to them and questioned the practice of combining trash and water bills, advocating for separation between public and private sector services. The council supported the staff recommendation to approve the resolution.
City Council Approves Increased Development Impact Fees and Removes Affordable Housing Requirements
The City Council discussed and ultimately approved proposed changes to development impact fees. These changes included a significant increase in the parks and recreation fee from $300 to $11,500, while sewer and water fees were proposed to remain unchanged. A public art in-lieu fee was established at 0.5% of the total construction value, a rate considered to be on the lower end compared to other cities. Concerns were raised by a council member about outside developers acquiring property and potentially creating monopolies. The council also addressed a separate issue regarding the removal of affordable housing in-lieu requirements, which were deemed not feasible for certain types of residential projects and had never been fully established. Staff recommended removing these requirements, and the council voted to approve this recommendation.
