City Manager Mike Futrell began the discussion of permitted use of Community Benefits Fees
under the South San Francisco Municipal Code. He stated that City Council was charged with
land use policy in the City, to set zoning and density requirements, etc. Mr. Futrell then
explained the Community Benefits Ordinance in the City's Zoning Code. Essentially, the
Ordinance provides that developers can request to go outside the zoning parameters with Council
approval as long as impact fees are provided. Mr. Futrell referenced the 2.7 million dollar
community benefits payment accompanying the Sares Regis Project on the Old Ford Property
Site. Pursuant to action of the Oversight Board and City Council respectively, 1 million of this
payment would be allocated to the South San Francisco Unified School District. The School
District's spending of the 1 million dollar allocation would be limited to the authorized
parameters specified in the City's Community Benefits Ordinance. Mr. Futrell advised that while
