Title: IMPACT FEES FOR FINANCING TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE: THE FLORIDA EXPERIENCE
Accession Number: 00462444
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Comments are made on the experience in Florida where there is no state enabling legislation for impact fees. The Broward County ordinance (a marginal cost pricing model) and the Palm Beach County ordinance (an average pricing model) are noted. Palm Beach County model's zoning concept is noted. The issues of revenue sharing and growth management are discussed. It is observed that the bottom line is that impact fees are far from perfect. Where the return from new land developments will bear the additional costs of needed transportation improvements, equity argues that those receiving the additional benefits should pay directly for them. This is especially true in urban areas where right-of-way and construction costs are greater than revenues that will be returned through normal user charges.
