A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM
DESERT, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING CHILD CARE FACILITIES
IMPACT MITIGATION FEES
WHEREAS, child care has become an increasingly important community service
that is difficult for many families to secure due to lack of available facilities and spaces
and/or because of cost.
WHEREAS, the City's General Plan provides that the City should encourage the
availability of adequate, convenient, affordable child care that is accessible to all
economic segments at the community.
WHEREAS, to further this General Plan policy, the City has reviewed and
adopted a Child Care Facilities Impact Fee Nexus Study which sets forth the reasonable
relationship between the need for child care facilities and non-residential development,
establishes a nexus between certain fees and the cost of child care facilities needed to
serve such development, and includes a Child Care Facilities Master Plan describing
facility types and -capacities required to meet future demand.

public hearing on September 22, 2005, to consider the Child Care Facilities Impact
Mitigation Fee.
