decisions to the city council:
(1) The applicability of an impact fee to the new development;
(2) The amount of the roadway impact fee due;
(3) The availability of, the amount of, or the expiration of an offset;
(4) The application of an offset against a roadway impact fee due;
(5) The amount of the roadway impact fee in proportion to the benefit received by the new
development; or
(6) The amount of a refund due, if any.
(b) The appellant shall state the basis for the appeal in writing with particularity. The burden of
proof shall be on the appellant to demonstrate that the amount of the fee or the amount of the
offset was not calculated according to the rules set forth in this Article or by administrative
guideline adopted by the city council. The appellant shall submit any traffic study or other
documents upon which he relies to the city with the request for appeal.
(c) The appellant must file a notice of appeal with the city clerk within 30 days following the
decision. If the notice of appeal is accompanied by a bond or other sufficient surety with offices
for local presentment in a form satisfactory to the city attorney in an amount equal to the original
determination of the roadway impact fee due, the development application may be processed
while the appeal is pending.
(d) Along with the notice of appeal, an applicant may request an alternative service unit
computation for land uses not contained within the latest edition of the ITE Trip Generation
Manual by submitting a trip generation study demonstrating the appropriateness of the trip
generation rates for the proposed development. An applicant may also include an alternative
Service Unit calculation.
(1) The following shall be used for trip lengths within the city for any alternative service unit
computation as a multiplier to computed trip rates to determine the vehicle miles per
development unit: (i) industrial uses — 4.99 miles; (ii) residential uses — 3.38 miles; (iii)
recreational or lodging uses—3.91 miles; (iv) office uses—3.40 miles; (v) retail and dining
uses—3.37 miles; (vi) school uses—2.41 miles; (vii) convenience stop uses— 1.35 miles;
and (viii) all other uses—3.98 miles.
(2) For any alternative service unit computation not using trip rates in the LUMVET Table in
Schedule 42-505(c), a minimum of 3 studies must be used with a rate or linear regression
equation for trips per unit of development in the PM peak hour for adjacent street traffic.
7
Studies must be conducted as a count of all traffic entering and leaving a site with the peak
hour computed and delivered in a report sealed by an engineer licensed in the state of
Texas. Study locations provided must be described and have similar characteristics to the
proposed use, preferably within 50 miles of City Hall.
(3) Any exceptions to the requirements set forth in subsections (1) or (2) above must be
approved by the director of transportation.
(e) The city manager or his/her designee may (1) resolve the appeal, if the appellant agrees with
the manager's decision, or (2) if the appellant does not agree, refer the matter to the City
Council for decision, along with the Manager's recommendation and any trip generation study
provided, if any.
(f) If city council review is requested by the appellant after receiving the city manager's decision,
the city clerk shall schedule a public hearing at which the applicant may present testimony and
evidence before the city council. The city council shall act on the appeal within 60 days of
receipt of the notice of appeal by the City, unless otherwise agreed by the appellant.
(g) If the notice of appeal is accompanied by a payment or other bond or other sufficient surety
with offices for local presentment in a form satisfactory to the city attorney in an amount equal
to the original determination of the roadway impact fee due, satisfactory to the city attorney in
an amount equal to the original determination of the roadway impact fee due, the City shall
process and may issue a building permit if other requirements are met while the appeal is
pending.
(h) If the city council allows for a different amount of the roadway impact fee due for new
development under this Section to be paid, it may cause to be appropriated from other City
funds the amount of the reduction in the roadway impact fee to the account for the service area
in which the new development is located.
(i) The appellant shall promptly pay to the city the full amount of the roadway impact fee
determined to be due by the city council regarding such appeal. Failure to promptly pay such
roadway impact fee within five business days after the city council's determination on the
appeal shall serve as authority for the city to present the bond or other surety to the bonding
company or financial institution for performance with no other or further notice or contact with
the appellant.
(j) The appellant shall bear all costs of the appeal.
IV.
A. All ordinances, parts of ordinances, or resolutions in conflict herewith are
expressly repealed.
B. The invalidity of any section or provision of this ordinance shall not
invalidate other sections or provisions thereof.

That Chapter 42, Article V, Section 42.511, Code of Ordinances (2018 Edition),
City of Round Rock, Texas, is hereby amended as follows:
CHAPTER 42—TRAFFIC AND VEHICLES
Sec. 42-511. Appeals.
(a) The property owner or applicant for anew development may appeal the following administrative
decisions to the city council:
(1) The applicability of an impact fee to the new development;
(2) The amount of the roadway impact fee due;
(3) The availability of, the amount of, or the expiration of an offset;
(4) The application of an offset against a roadway impact fee due;
(5) The amount of the roadway impact fee in proportion to the benefit received by the new
development; or
(6) The amount of a refund due, if any.
(b) The appellant shall state the basis for the appeal in writing with particularity. The burden of
proof shall be on the appellant to demonstrate that the amount of the fee or the amount of the
offset was not calculated according to the rules set forth in this Article or by administrative
guideline adopted by the city council. The appellant shall submit any traffic study or other
documents upon which he relies to the city with the request for appeal.
(c) The appellant must file a notice of appeal with the city clerk within 30 days following the
decision. If the notice of appeal is accompanied by a bond or other sufficient surety with offices
for local presentment in a form satisfactory to the city attorney in an amount equal to the original
determination of the roadway impact fee due, the development application may be processed
while the appeal is pending.
(d) Along with the notice of appeal, an applicant may request an alternative service unit
computation for land uses not contained within the latest edition of the ITE Trip Generation
Manual by submitting a trip generation study demonstrating the appropriateness of the trip
generation rates for the proposed development. An applicant may also include an alternative
Service Unit calculation.
(1) The following shall be used for trip lengths within the city for any alternative service unit
computation as a multiplier to computed trip rates to determine the vehicle miles per
development unit: (i) industrial uses — 4.99 miles; (ii) residential uses — 3.38 miles; (iii)
recreational or lodging uses—3.91 miles; (iv)office uses—3.40 miles; (v) retail and dining
uses—3.37 miles; (vi)school uses—2.41 miles; (vii) convenience stop uses— 1.35 miles;
and (viii)all other uses—3.98 miles.
(2) For any alternative service unit computation not using trip rates in the LUMVET Table in
Schedule 42-505(c) a minimum of 3 studies must be used with a rate or linear regression
equation for trips per unit of development in the PM peak hour for adjacent street traffic.
7
Studies must be conducted as a count of all traffic entering and leaving a site with the peak
hour computed and delivered in a report sealed by an engineer licensed in the state of
Texas. Study locations provided must be described and have similar characteristics to the
proposed use, preferably within 50 miles of City Hall.
(3) Any exceptions to the requirements set forth in subsections (1) or (2) above must be
approved by the director of transportation.
(e) The city manager or his/her designee may (1) resolve the appeal, if the appellant agrees with
the manager's decision, or (2) if the appellant does not agree, refer the matter to the City
Council for decision, along with the Manager's recommendation and any trip generation study
provided, if any.
(f) If city council review is requested by the appellant after receiving the city manager's decision,
the city clerk shall schedule a public hearing at which the applicant may present testimony and
evidence before the city council. The city council shall act on the appeal within 60 days of
receipt of the notice of appeal by the City, unless otherwise agreed by the appellant.
(g) If the notice of appeal is accompanied by a payment or other bond or other sufficient surety
with offices for local presentment in a form satisfactory to the city attorney in an amount equal
to the original determination of the roadway impact fee due, satisfactory to the city attorney in
an amount equal to the original determination of the roadway impact fee due, the City shall
process and may issue a building permit if other requirements are met while the appeal is
pending.
(h) If the city council allows for a different amount of the roadway impact fee due for new
development under this Section to be paid, it may cause to be appropriated from other City
funds the amount of the reduction in the roadway impact fee to the account for the service area
in which the new development is located.
(i) The appellant shall promptly pay to the city the full amount of the roadway impact fee
determined to be due by the city council regarding such appeal. Failure to promptly pay such
roadway impact fee within five business days after the city council's determination on the
appeal shall serve as authority for the city to present the bond or other surety to the bonding
company or financial institution for performance with no other or further notice or contact with
the appellant.
(j) The appellant shall bear all costs of the appeal.
IV.
A. All ordinances, parts of ordinances, or resolutions in conflict herewith are
expressly repealed.
B. The invalidity of any section or provision of this ordinance shall not
invalidate other sections or provisions thereof.
C. The City Council hereby finds and declares that written notice of the date,
hour, place and subject of the meeting at which this Ordinance was adopted was posted
8
and that such meeting was open to the public as required by law at all times during which
this Ordinance and the subject matter hereof were discussed, considered and formally
acted upon, all as required by the Open Meetings Act, Chapter 551, Texas Government
Code, as amended.
