This workshop focused on impact fees charged to new developments in Irwindale, explaining their purpose and methodology. Impact fees are one-time charges collected at the time of building permits, targeted at covering the costs of new facilities needed for growth. The session discussed essential findings from the Impact Fee Nexus Study, emphasizing the proportionality between fees and facility costs, as well as the allocation of costs for new facilities. Key categories of impact fees were reviewed, including facilities for administration, libraries, parks, police, transportation, and wastewater.

Impact Fees – Basic Methodology • Estimate existing development and future growth • Identify facility standards • Determine new facility needs and costs • Allocate share to accommodate growth • Identify alternative funding needs • Calculate fee by allocating costs per unit of new development
