Claims Board backs $172,839 building fee refund to Galpin Mazda dealership
The North Hills dealership overpaid an affordable housing fee after shrinking its building, and city staff verified the difference.
Galpin Mazda would get back $172,839.36 of the affordable housing linkage fee it paid on a new dealership at 8353 N. Sepulveda Blvd after a later permit cut the building to 40,600 square feet. The Claims Board voted 3-0 to recommend the refund, and the City Council now decides.
What happens next
City Council considers the Claims Board recommendation to approve the refund.
