             1328          (iii) the five-year projected cost of a governmental service shall be based on the
             1329      amount calculated under Subsection (4)(c)(ii), taking into account inflation and anticipated
             1330      growth.
             1331          (5) If the results of the feasibility study or revised feasibility study do not meet the
             1332      requirements of Subsection 10-2-109 (3), the feasibility consultant shall, as part of the
             1333      feasibility study or revised feasibility study and if requested by the sponsors of the request,
             1334      make recommendations as to how the boundaries of the proposed city may be altered so that
             1335      the requirements of Subsection 10-2-109 (3) may be met.
             1336          (6) (a) For purposes of this Subsection (6), "pending" means that the process to
             1337      incorporate an unincorporated area has been initiated by the filing of a request for feasibility

             1339      petition under Section 10-2-109 has not yet been filed.

             1347      effective date of this Subsection (6), already completed the feasibility study, the county
             1348      legislative body shall, within 20 days after the effective date of this Subsection (6) and except
             1349      as provided in Subsection (6)(c)(iii), engage the feasibility consultant to revise the feasibility
             1350      study to take into account the amendments to Subsection (4) that became effective on the
             1351      effective date of this Subsection (6).
             1352          (ii) Except as provided in Subsection (6)(c)(iii), the county legislative body shall
             1353      require the feasibility consultant to complete the revised feasibility study under Subsection
             1354      (6)(c)(i) within 20 days after being engaged to do so.
             1355          (iii) Notwithstanding Subsections (6)(c)(i) and (ii), a county legislative body is not
             1356      required to engage the feasibility consultant to revise the feasibility study if, within 15 days
             1357      after the effective date of this Subsection (6), the request sponsors file with the county clerk a
             1358      written withdrawal of the request signed by all the request sponsors.
             1359          (d) All provisions of this part that set forth the incorporation process following the
             1360      completion of a feasibility study shall apply with equal force following the completion of a
             1361      revised feasibility study under this Subsection (6), except that, if a petition under Section
             1362      10-2-109 has already been filed based on the feasibility study that is revised under this
             1363      Subsection (6):
             1364          (i) the notice required by Section 10-2-108 for the revised feasibility study shall
             1365      include a statement informing signers of the petition of their right to withdraw their signatures
             1366      from the petition and of the process and deadline for withdrawing a signature from the petition;
             1367          (ii) a signer of the petition may withdraw the signer's signature by filing with the
             1368      county clerk a written withdrawal within 30 days after the final notice under Subsection

             1485      or (state the name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address of the person who


             1486      filed the notice of intent under Subsection (2)(a)(i)(A), or, if more than one person filed the
             1487      notice of intent, one of those persons). Once filed, the annexation petition will be available for

             2888          (4) A local political subdivision may only impose impact fees on development

             2891      future, in comparison to the benefits already received and yet to be received.
             2892          (5) (a) Each local political subdivision imposing impact fees shall prepare a written

             2906      assessments, bonded indebtedness, general taxes, or federal grants;
             2907          (iii) the relative extent to which the newly developed properties and the other
             2908      properties in the municipality have already contributed to the cost of existing public facilities,
             2909      by such means as user charges, special assessments, or payment from the proceeds of general
             2910      taxes;
             2911          (iv) the relative extent to which the newly developed properties and the other
             2912      properties in the municipality will contribute to the cost of existing public facilities in the
             2913      future;


             2914          (v) the extent to which the newly developed properties are entitled to a credit because
             2915      the municipality is requiring their developers or owners, by contractual arrangement or
             2916      otherwise, to provide common facilities, inside or outside the proposed development, that have
             2917      been provided by the municipality and financed through general taxation or other means, apart
             2918      from user charges, in other parts of the municipality;
             2919          (vi) extraordinary costs, if any, in servicing the newly developed properties; and
             2920          (vii) the time-price differential inherent in fair comparisons of amounts paid at
             2921      different times.
             2922          (c) Each local political subdivision that prepares a written analysis under this
             2923      Subsection (5) on or after July 1, 2000 shall also prepare a summary of the written analysis,
             2924      designed to be understood by a lay person.
             2925          (6) Each local political subdivision that adopts an impact fee enactment under Section
             2926      11-36-202 on or after July 1, 2000 shall, at least 14 days before adopting the enactment, submit
             2927      to each public library within the local political subdivision:
             2928          (a) a copy of the written analysis required by Subsection (5)(a); and
             2929          (b) a copy of the summary required by Subsection (5)(c).
             2930          (7) Nothing in this chapter may be construed to repeal or otherwise eliminate any

             2947          (d) In calculating an impact fee, a local political subdivision may not include an
