Drainage Detention and Conveyance Impact Fee

“These impact fee programs are intended to mitigate new development's impact on the need for new backbone infrastructure and public facilities and provide a mechanism by which new development contributes its "fair-share" to construction of new facilities needed to accommodate growth.”

“City staff, in collaboration with West Yost Associates, developed the necessary information required to calculate an updated maximum storm drain fee. The fee determines the cost of capital investments and supporting studies for both detention basins and conveyance systems that can be allocated to new development. This cost allocation is then converted into a cost per impervious area of development and subsequently into a fee schedule of per unit costs for new residential by density category and per gross acre fees for nonresidential development.”
