19.22.050 Concurrency test.
A. In conducting the concurrency test, the city must use the level of service standards adopted in the capital facilities element of the comprehensive plan.
B. Procedures. The concurrency test for concurrency facilities will be performed in the processing of the development permit and conducted by the Department in consultation with the Public Works Department.
C. Test. Development applications must comply with either subsection (C)(1) or (C)(2) of this section:
1. If the capacity of concurrency facilities is equal to or greater than the capacity required to maintain the level of service standard for the impact from the development application, the concurrency test is passed and is to be documented by the Director.
2. If the available facility capacity of concurrency facilities is less than the capacity required to maintain the level of service standard for the impact from the development application, the concurrency test is not passed. The applicant may:
a. Accept a 90-day reservation of available facility capacity on concurrency facilities and modify the application to reduce the need for planned facility capacity on concurrency facilities;
b. Accept a 90-day reservation of available facility capacity on concurrency facilities and demonstrate to the service provider’s satisfaction that the development will have a lower need for capacity than usual and, therefore, the available facility capacity is adequate;
c. Accept a 90-day reservation of available facility capacity on concurrency facilities and arrange with the service provider for the provision of the additional capacity of concurrency facilities required; or
d. Appeal the results of the concurrency test in accordance with the procedures for the applicable underlying permit, per AMC 19.20.030. (Ord. 3040 § 2 (Att. A), 2019)
