The applicant for any development permit, except for a building permit for a single-family use on an existing lot of record, shall provide evidence in the form of a letter of availability from the local service providers for schools, water, and fire, where applicable, that the project can be accommodated within the existing system or, alternatively, adequate provision has been made to upgrade or otherwise increase capacity concurrently with the development impact. No development can be approved under this chapter without a written finding that adequacy requirements are met consistent with Chapter 17.130 LCC. [Ord. 1179, 2002; Ord. 1170B, 2000]
