Except for development exempt under GHMC 19.10.003, any development activity, as defined in the definition section of this chapter, shall require a capacity evaluation in accordance with this chapter.

A. Increased Impact on Road Facilities, and/or the City’s Water System, and/or the City’s Sewer System. If a change of use will have a greater impact on road facilities and/or the city’s water system, and/or the city’s sewer system than the previous use as determined by the director based on review of information submitted by the developer, and such supplemental information as available, a CRC shall be required for the net increase only; provided, that the developer shall provide reasonably sufficient evidence that the previous use has been actively maintained on the site during the five-year period prior to the date of application for the capacity evaluation.

B. Decreased Impact on Transportation Facilities and/or the City’s Water System, and/or the City’s Sewer System. If a change of use will have an equal or lesser impact on road facilities and/or the city’s water system and/or the city’s sewer system than the previous use as determined by the director based on review of information submitted by the developer, a CRC will not be required.

C. No Capacity Credit. If no use existed on the site for the five-year period prior to the date of application, no capacity credit shall be issued pursuant to this section.

D. Demolition or Termination of Use. In the case of a demolition or termination of an existing use or structure, the capacity evaluation for future redevelopment shall be based upon the net increase of the impact on road facilities or the city’s water or sewer system for the new or proposed land use as compared to the land use existing prior to demolition; provided, that such credit is utilized through a CRC within five years of the date of the issuance of the demolition permit. (Ord. 1044 § 1, 2006; Ord. 862 § 1, 2001; Ord. 818 § 1, 1999).
