DISCUSSION: Annexation
Impact Fees and Development Process
ACTION: Alderman Plese made a motion and Alderman Kasalko seconded to open discussions at 6:30 pm. All yes. Motion passed.
(See attached). Rob Nelis explained the impact fees that
will be in discussion for the Prairie Farms annexation. Alderman Strong wanted to be clear that the
Park District gets $900 and the Library gets $100. Nelis stated that the
revenue gap covers tax income shortages until the subdivision is completed
because services have to begin when the subdivision begins. The Committee
agreed that this was a great impact fee to have. Alderman Plese asked that the
school impact fee figure be verified. (See attached on Development Process
Document). Alderman Cox wanted to go on record stating that he had a meeting
with an experienced developer and Nelis last week and the developer was very
impressed with the professional way Wilmington is dealing with developers. He thanked Nelis.
