Abstract:

Transportation impact fees are now being considered in communities throughout Florida and have recently been enacted in four Florida counties. In view of its obvious appeal, this new tax is expected to be the subject of experiment by communities throughout the country. The purpose of this paper was to explore this new source of transportation revenue by using the Florida experience as a point of departure. Judicial standards on which impact fees are based are discussed, and a fee system that has become a model in Florida, having survived judicial challenge, is examined in some detail. A means to estimate the economic incidence of an impact fee is demonstrated and the use of the impact fee as a growth management tool is examined.
