Triangulating from the cairns…
The two local government jurisdictions in Colorado have had experience with different cost-mitigation policies to ensure growth pays its way with regard to its impacts on public infrastructure. In 1998, the City of Boulder modified its Development Excise Tax as part of the City's Transportation Master Plan and added a separate Plant Investment Fee. In 2000, Pitkin County implemented its Fair Share Requirement Provision, which ensures that developers pay for road impacts based on the type and size of the proposed development. Last, the State of Colorado is in the process of implementing the Transportation Commission's Policy Directive 1601. This policy not only addresses infrastructure capital improvements driven by development, but it also covers ongoing maintenance, operations and replacement costs for the improvement. There have been successes and challenges with each of these approaches. Analysing and understanding attempts to mitigate the costs of growth can help jurisdictions select the most appropriate application to implement.
