Board codifies parkland, school‑site and other impact fees into subdivision code
Summary
The village adopted an ordinance that establishes baseline impact fees for parks, schools, fire protection and libraries, specifies exemptions (for example, age‑restricted developments), and details when and how fees are paid and indemnification provisions.
Trustees approved an ordinance to update the subdivision code to codify impact fees that had previously been established by annexation agreements and PUDs. Staff explained the ordinance outlines exemptions (for example, assisted‑living or other age‑restricted developments are exempt from school impact fees but still pay library and fire district fees), specifies fee amounts, and requires indemnification language to clarify collection and reporting practices.
Nick and Hannah Teams told trustees the ordinance sets fire protection impact fees (commercial: $300 for construction area up to 3,000 sq ft; $10 per sq ft for larger commercial) and a residential fire impact fee of $685 per dwelling unit, and a library fee of $150 per dwelling unit. The board approved the ordinance by roll call; staff said the ordinance aligns village practice with state law and current case law, and sets a consistent baseline for future developments.
