School Facilities Fee (Level 2, in lieu of Level 1) - Folsom Cordova USD (SFID 1)

“Education Code Section 17620 authorizes school districts to levy a fee, charge, dedication or other form of requirement against any development project for the construction or reconstruction of school facilities provided that the district can show justification for levying of fees.”

“Level II fees may be used to fund facilities to accommodate students generated by new construction.”

“The proposed developer fee rates are calculated on a School Facilities Improvement District (SFID) basis. SFID 1 represents the City of Rancho Cordova, Mather, and the unincorporated area of Sacramento County south of Highway 50 and generally west of Prairie City Road. SFID 2 represents the City of Folsom and the area south of Highway 50 and generally east of Prairie City Road.”

“Level II fees are outlined in Government Code section 65995.5. This code section allows a school district to impose a higher fee on residential construction if certain conditions are met. Level II fees were approved by the Board of Education at the April 10, 2025, Board of Education meeting, and must be justified on a yearly basis.”
