This section is included in your selections.

(1) In making a threshold determination pursuant to SEPA, the Director and/or the Hearing Examiner, in the course of reviewing proposals for residential development including applications for plats or UPDs, mobile home parks, or multifamily zoning, and multifamily building permits, shall consider the school district’s capital facilities plan as adopted by the Council.

(2) Documentation which the district is required to submit pursuant to CMC 18.75.110 or CMC Title 14, Division I, shall be incorporated into the record in every case without requiring the district to offer such plans and data into the record. The school district is also authorized to present testimony and documents demonstrating a lack of concurrency in the district and the inability of the district to accommodate the students to be generated by a specific development.

(3) Based upon a finding that the impacts generated by the plat, manufactured home park or the multifamily development were generally not anticipated at the time of the last Council review and approval of a school district capital plan and were not included in the district’s long-range forecast, the Director may require or recommend phasing or provision of the needed facilities and/or sites as appropriate to address the deficiency or deny or condition approval, consistent with the provisions of this chapter, the State Subdivision Act, and the State Environmental Policy Act.

(4) Determinations of the Examiner or Director regarding concurrency can be appealed only pursuant to the provisions for appeal of the development permit process for which the determination has been made. Where no other administrative appeal process is available, an appeal may be taken to the Hearing Examiner using the appeal procedures for variances. Any errors in the formula identified as a result of an appeal should be referred to the Council for possible modifications.

(5) Where the Council has not adopted an impact fee ordinance for a particular school district, the language of this section shall not affect the authority or duties of the Examiner or the Director pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act or the State Subdivision Act.
