The following criteria shall be applied in determining whether or not a developer may be granted reimbursement from funds derived from the proposed Revenue Allocation District for improvements made by the developer: A. The developer must be improving property that is included within the proposed / adopted Revenue Allocation District. Only the properties within the Revenue Allocation District are qualified under this resolution. B. Reimbursement would be considered for improvements in C1, C2, I zoned developments that are beneficial to the public and which would ultimately be taken over and maintained by the City of Chubbuck. Examples of qualifying costs would be water lines, sewer lines, public streets including curb, gutter, and sidewalk and public storm drain facilities. Examples of improvements that would not qualify would be installations, power, gas, and communications, general overhead for fees, design costs, permit costs, financing costs and other such costs for both qualifying and non- qualifying approvals. C. Reimbursement would be considered for improvements in RI, R2, R3 and R4 zoned developments that are "Major Infrastructure" in excess of typical residential street and utility construction, such as arterial roadways, water and sewer capacity upgrades, private utilities that provide capacity beyond the proposed development. Examples of qualifying improvements would be upsized water lines, upsized sewer lines, minor and major arterial streets including curb, gutter and sidewalk, upsized electrical, gas and communications lines that serve future developments. Examples of improvements that would not qualify would be local and collector streets, water, sewer and storm drain utility installations, power, gas, and communications that only serve the subject development. General overhead for fees, design costs, permit costs, financing costs and other such costs would be non -qualifying. D. Reimbursement would be considered for improvements in the Creative Community zoned developments that are beneficial to the public and which would ultimately be taken over and maintained by the City of Chubbuck. Examples of qualifying costs would be water lines, sewer lines, public streets including arterials, collectors and local streets that provide access and circulation to the community including curb, gutter, and sidewalk and public storm drain facilities and private utilities that provide capacity beyond the proposed development. Additional qualifying improvements shall include items required by the Creative Community zone which include but are not limited to pathways, public spaces, public art, streetscapes, lighting and similar improvement set forth in the Creative Community zone. General overhead for fees, design costs, permit costs, financing cost and other such cost would be eligible for reimbursement. Examples of improvements that would not qualify would be installations, power, gas, and communications, that only serve the subject development, local streets including underlying utilities that only serve small specific area and do not provide circulation throughout the development. E. Reimbursements allowed in any zone may be reimbursable in a PUD, to the extent that the reimbursable improvements provide benefit to the public, rather than benefitting just the PUD development. 2. In considering a request for reimbursement, the Urban Renewal Plan approved by the City and the Chubbuck Development Authority must be followed. Any proposed changes in the plan must be brought back to the Development Authority and the City for subsequent approval or, if such approval is not granted, reimbursement may be subsequently denied even though initially approved. 3. Reimbursement shall be made based upon actual costs which shall be submitted by the developer to the Development Authority with appropriate documentation to enable the review of such costs and verify those that are eligible and ultimately approved for reimbursement. 4. The developer may be eligible for up to 100% reimbursement of the qualifying costs. The Development Authority and the developer will agree to a schedule for the reimbursement provided however that no reimbursement shall be made until funds are being generated from the Revenue Allocation District upon the specific property being approved for reimbursement qualification. 5. The rate of reimbursement shall generally be such that the developer shall receive 80% of the annually funds collected on that specific property from the Revenue Allocation District and the Development Authority shall retain the balance. 6. If for some reason the funds received from the Chubbuck Revenue Allocation area with respect to the specific property involved decrease or cease altogether, the City and the Chubbuck Development Authority would have no responsibility to make reimbursements to the developer from any other revenue sources.
