Developer's Agreement regarding the payment of Transportation Impact Fees for a qualifying Transit Oriented Development known as Crescent Central Station

Summary:
In October of 2012 the Orlando City Council adopted a code provision allowing for a reduction in Transportation Impact Fees for qualifying development sites, to reflect the lessened traffic impacts of a Transit Oriented Development (TOD).
 
The Developer for Crescent Central Station Apartments has submitted an application for review and approval  as a designated TOD. The project consists of multi-family residential and retail uses, as identified in permit case BLD2014-00128, located at 480 N. Orange Avenue, in the City's North Transportation Benefit Area.
 
Based on the qualifying characteristics of the project, City staff shall support a 60% reduction to the Transportation Impact Fee assessment.  The attached agreement outlines the qualifying criteria for the fee reduction.  Following approval by the City Attorney's Office and the Orlando City Council, a reduced Transportation Impact Fee in the amount of $275,839.98 shall be due, prior to permit issuance.
