The city council is authorized to enact this article by Chapter 395 of the Texas Local
Government Code, as amended, ("Chapter 395") which authorizes home-rule cities, among
others, to enact or impose impact fees on land within their corporate boundaries or
extraterritorial jurisdictions, and to persons with whom they have a water or sanitary
sewer supply service contract, as charges or assessments imposed against new development
in order to generate revenue for funding or recouping the costs of capital improvements
or facility expansions necessitated by and attributable to such new development. The
provisions of this article shall not be construed to limit the power of the city council
to adopt such article pursuant to any other source of local authority, including the
City Charter, nor to utilize any other methods or powers otherwise available for accomplishing
the purposes set forth herein, either in substitution of or in conjunction with this
article. Guidelines may be developed by resolution or otherwise to implement and administer
this article.
