RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Set public hearing for November 1, 2017 to consider adopting a
resolution setting the San Joaquin County Multi -Species Habitat
Conservation and Open Space Plan development fees for 2018.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On February 21, 2001, the City of Lodi adopted the San Joaquin
County Multi -Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan
(SJMSCP). The Plan includes a schedule of fees to be paid by
property owners who propose to develop their property with non-agricultural uses. These fees are used
to mitigate for the cumulative impacts of new development on habitat lands within Lodi and San Joaquin
County. It is necessary for all jurisdictions covered by the Plan to approve the Habitat Conservation Plan
(HCP) fees in order for the jurisdiction to continue to participate in the Plan. The fees are reviewed on an
annual basis.
The 2018 per acre fees for all categories of habitat land have increased over 8.9 percent from the prior
year. In 2017 the fees went up by 14 percent over the previous year. Fees are calculated based upon
appraisal value of easements. Open Space lands have increased from $8,905 to $9,701. Agriculture and
Natural lands (the two largest categories) have increased from $17,808 to $19,400. Fees for Vernal Pool
(grasslands) habitat lands increased from $66,437 to $72,523 and Vernal Pool (wetted lands) increased
from $109,737 to 116,871.
On Thursday, September 28, 2017, the San Joaquin Council of Governments Board approved the
attached HCP fee schedule for 2018. The Board coordinates the review of land costs to ensure that the
attached land mitigation costs will satisfy habitat conservation and purchases. All local jurisdictions are
requested to approve the new fee schedule that will take effect on January 1, 2018.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.
