Mr. ~icas then reviewed the history of the cash proffer
system including that fha system is basically one in which

capital cost necessitated by t~eir development; t~at the
maximum cash proffer steep=ed by the county is $5,0S3; and
that since the cash proffer ordinance wac adopted, the County
has apprsved 2,2~0 lots with cash proffers and of those, 900
(~1 percent) offered less than the m~imum amount. Be stated
the Doard ha~ nut denied a rezoning request based solely on
th~ developerls refusal to offer the maximum cash proffer;
that regardless of whether the developer makes a oa~h
proffsr, the ~oard is requirsd to consider health, safety,
and wslfare issues when svaluatlng a razuning request; and

language would not eliminate the cash proffer ~ys~m; that in
absence cf impact fsss, the cash proffer system would remain
in place; and that the language would not require elimination
cf t~e County's e~i~ting methodology, however, would require
a closer and mots prscise analysis by staff for individual
cas~s. When asksd, he stated under the nsw language, a more
precls~ analysis might show that the true co~t ~f
particular development is much higher than avsrage which
~ean~ the Board ha~ the lsgal ability to accept a proffer
to that amount and can aoespt anything le~s than that amount
Mr. Daniel inquired as to whether the B~rd ham th~ l~gal
