Capital Improvement Advisory Committee

Volunteers needed for Capital Improvements Advisory Committee:
The capital improvements advisory committee ("Committee”) is an advisory
committee appointed by Pendleton Water Supply Corporation (PWSC) Board
to assist with the impact fee adoption and implementation process. The
PWSC Board must appoint the Committee before passage of the ordinance
setting the public hearing on the CIP and land use assumptions,. Id.
§395.058. Practically speaking, once the PWSC Board has decided to
consider adopting an impact fee, appointment of the Committee is the first
official action.
The Committee’s purpose is to: (1) advise and assist the PWSC Board in
adopting the land use assumptions; (2) review and file written comments on
the water supply CIP; (3) monitor and evaluate implementation of the CIP;
(4) file semiannual reports with respect to the progress of the CIP and report
to the PWSC Board any perceived inequities in implementing the plan or
imposing the impact fee; and (5) advise the PWSC Board of the need to
update or revise the land use assumptions, CIP, or impact fee. Id. §§
395.058(c), 395.050. Be aware that these are not simply ad-hoc committees
that disappear once an impact fee ordinance has been adopted. Due to the
Committee’s obligation to provide semiannual reports and advise the PWSC
Board with regard to the CIP and land use assumptions, the Committee
should meet on a regular basis. Contact office at 254-773-5876 for additional information.
