Impact Fee Process
Overview
Impact Fee Process
1.Recovers infrastructure and resources costs to serve new
customers from 2023 -2032
2.Growth and Cost projections per Town Land Use Assumptions
(LUA) and Infrastructure Improvement Plans (IIP)
3.Growth related costs only at existing service levels
4.Fee types: Water Infrastructure, Water Resources, Water
Reclamation
5.Fee is a unit cost calculation -Growth related costs ($) /
equivalent dwelling units (EDUs)
4
Impact Fee Calculation Methods
1.Incremental Method
a.New development supported by new infrastructure only
b.Projected costs / projected EDUs
c.Used for Water Infrastructure Fee
2.Hybrid Method
a.New development supported by both existing and new infrastructure
b.(Costs for existing + new infrastructure)/ total benefiting EDUs (existing and future)
c.Acknowledges costs already incurred to serve new development and recovers new
development’s proportionate share
d.Used for Water Resources and Water Reclamation Fees

Primary Drivers of Water Related Fees
1.Rapid growth from a small community to a mid-sized community
requires infrastructure
2.Town Council’s direction: developments should pay for the cost of
growth
3.Inflation –project construction costs drastically increased
4.Regional water supplies –water resources cost increased
5.Town has decided to contribute:
a.~$8MM general fund to the NWRRDS projects
b.~$3MM general fund to the phase I of WRF
c.~$7MM for sewer collection augmentation projects
6.WIFA contributed ~$500K forgivable principal for Marana Parks
