♦ Chapter Fifteen Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance <br />1) For a subdivision that consists of single family detached residences, the <br />greater of 5 dwelling units per year or 10% of the proposed number of <br />dwelling units, but no more than 15 dwelling units per year. <br />2) For townhouses, 10 dwelling units each year or 10% of the number of <br />dwelling units, whichever is greater, but no more than 15 dwelling units <br />per year. <br />3) For multifamily or other residential units, 11 dwelling units each year or <br />10% of the total number of units, whichever is greater, but no more than <br />20 dwelling units per year. This subsection applies to a proposed <br />development that includes a mix of housing types that includes both <br />single family detached residences and townhouses or multifamily/ other <br />dwelling units. <br />b) These dwelling units shall not be constructed until the five years has expired <br />unless the applicant agrees to provide mitigation measures for the project that <br />defray the pro -rata impacts on school facilities for each dwelling unit constructed <br />during the initial five year period. <br />b) For any year where a phasing schedule as provided in subsection a) applies, the <br />applicant may elect to retest its remaining development against future available <br />capacity. If the remaining development then meets Formula #1, Formula #2, or <br />Formula #3, above, as certified by the Cabarrus County Commerce Department, <br />the applicant may proceed subject to the conditions that apply to that formula. <br />This subsection does not apply unless the Cabarrus County Commerce <br />Department determines that the subsequent buildout, phasing or mitigation <br />complies with this section. <br />6. Applicants may propose mitigation measures to overcome a failure to meet one or more <br />LOS standards including, but not limited to, payment of a pro rata share of facility <br />capacity costs necessary to accommodate the demand generated by the proposed <br />development or timing the proposed development so that phasing is linked directly to <br />available capacity. <br />7. Mitigation measures that involve the payment of money to the County or School <br />District to defray the per -unit impacts of school facilities must be based on calculated <br />capital costs associated with new construction. The capital costs shall be re- assessed <br />every five years. The Board of Commissioners shall adopt the minimum mitigation <br />amount based upon that calculation and the annual rate of inflation. The Marshall and <br />Swift valuation service shall be the index used to calculate the rate of inflation.
