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 2019 per acre fees for all categories of habitat land have an overall decrease of 30.9% in the Multi- purpose, Agricultural and Natural habitat classifications from the prior year primarily related to the fall in the land acquisition component for agricultural land price values of comparable sales. Open Space lands have decreased from $9,701 to $6,700. Agriculture and Natural lands (the two largest categories) have decreased from $19,400 to $13,399. Fees for Vernal Pool (grasslands) habitat lands decreased from $72,523 to $54,576 and Vernal Pool (wetted lands) decreased from $116,871 to $101,033. The San Joaquin Council of Governments Board approved the attached HCP fee schedule for 2019 during their September 2018 board meeting. 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, 2019. FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.
