POLICY RESOLUTION NO. ~21
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF UKIAH REGARDING IN-LIEU PARK FEES
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Ukiah in 1976 adopted
Article 21 of Chapter 1 of Division 9 of the Ukiah City Code prescribing
regulations for Park and Recreation; Dedication; P~servations; Fees, and
WHEREAS, Ukiah City Code Section 8406 states that fees in-lieu of
land dedication shall be based upon "...the fair market value of the
amount of land...," and
WHEREAS, the practice of utilizing the County Assessor's assessed
value of the property as fair market value may have been adequate during
times of real estate stability, reflecting a reasonable relationship
between the fee and actual value of the property, and
WHEREAS, land prices have significantly increased to the point where
fair market value is not represented by the Assessor's valuations, and
WHEREAS, this disparity does not allow legitimate implementation of
the letter or intent of both the enabling State statute, Quimby Act, and
the local ordinance adopted to provide required park and recreational
facilities within the City of Ukiah, and
WHEREAS, an appropriate method to determine fair market value is
necessary to insure consistent and equitable compliance with the
regulations.
NC~, THEREFORE, THE CITY OF UKIAH CITY COUNCIL DOES HEREBY RESOLVE:
1) Fair market value as prescribed in Ukiah City Code Section 8406
shall be determined by an appraisal conducted by an independent
qualified appraiser.
2) The appraiser shall be approved by and under contract with the
