| countywide building construction impact fee on developers | 12 |
| undertaking a residential, multi-family, commercial, or | 13 |

| finance required buildings and improvements as specified in the | 13 |
| capital improvement plan. The countywide building construction | 14 |
| impact fee payable to a developer shall be based on a | 15 |
