Cedar City adopts impact‑fee facility plan and new rates; ordinance effective in 90 days
Summary
Council approved an ordinance adopting the city's impact fee facility plan and new fee rates (including parks and recreation) that will take effect 90 days after passage; staff noted an upcoming interlocal agreement with the Water Conservancy District will affect future fee allocation for water acquisition vs distribution.
The council adopted an ordinance updating Cedar City's impact fee facility plan and setting new rates, including adjustments for parks and recreation. City Manager Paul Bittmenn reviewed the ordinance and noted that the ordinance text contains updated rates that are aligned with the city fee schedule. "This wouldn't take effect for 90 days from passage," Bittmenn told the council.
Councilmembers asked questions about the water component of impact fees and whether ongoing interlocal negotiations with the Water Conservancy District would change how acquisition and distribution costs are covered. Councilmember R. Scott Phillips sought confirmation that previously discussed water fee amounts were unchanged; staff said impact‑fee structure will be revisited as the interlocal agreement is finalized.
