“(a) The fees required pursuant to this Division shall be paid to the County as a condition of approval of a development permit, including a building permit. For development projects that require both discretionary and building permits, the fees shall be paid no later than time of building permit issuance.”

“SEC. 77.218. APPLICABILITY. This Division shall apply to all development permits, including building permits, associated with the generation of traffic through new construction or expansion of an existing facility that add square footage space to a facility, as determined by the County. With the exception of the RTCIP Impact Fee which shall be collected for all residential development projects except as exempted by Section 77.210, the TIF shall not be collected for the following development activities: (a) Alterations, improvements, or additions to an existing residential dwelling, or rebuilding of a destroyed residential dwelling that does not change its classification of occupancy. (b) Apartment to condominium conversions. (c) Interim or temporary use permits of three years or less. ... (l) Projects with TIF payment obligations of less than $25.”

“SEC. 77.211. CREDITS FOR RTCIP IMPACT FEE. Credits, reductions and other offsets for the value of the construction of road improvements shall not be used to reduce the TIF otherwise owed, except for credits required by the TransNet Ordinance and Expenditure Plan, SANDAG Ordinance 04-01, to be applied to the RTCIP Impact Fee paid by residential developers. If a residential developer funds or constructs a TIF RAS improvement, the developer shall receive a credit in the form of a reimbursement for the improvement up to, but not exceeding, the cost estimates identified in the TIF Report for the RAS facility.”

“(c) Projects in process that have building permits issued after October 31, 2012, are eligible to receive a TIF refund for the difference between higher TIF previously paid and the lower TIF established by this ordinance. Refunds shall be automatically processed to customers who receive building permits after October 31, 2012 but before the new rates are in effect.”
