SUBJECT:
An Ordinance amending Section 7-3.2 of the Code of Ordinances to adjust the parks

BACKGROUND:
Since 2014, Section 7-3.2 of the City Code of Ordinances has required the collection of park
impact fees for new residential construction. In 2018, the Commission directed staff to have the
fees recalculated using updated costs and including the cost of land acquisition. The resulting
study and a revised fee table were presented to the Commission on September 3rd and 17th, and
October 1st; the attached ordinance is the result of those discussions. More specifically, the
Commission requested (1) a fee schedule that was based on unit size, rather than the existing
approach which separates multi -family units and single-family structures; and (2) fees that are
higher than the existing, but lower than the fees recommended by study. The draft ordinance
proposes a fee of $2.42 per square foot, regardless of unit type.

Impact Fee Study
South Miami, Florida
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of South Miami retained TischlerBise, Inc. to analyze current levels of service, and to calculate
maximum allowable impact fees for Parks and Recreation facilities in the City. This report presents the
methodologies and calculations used to generate current levels of service and the maximum allowable
impact fees. It is intended to serve as supporting documentation for future updates to impact fees in the
City.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the City's compliance with Florida Statute 163.31801 Florida
Impact Fee Act. Consistent with the state Statute, and the City's master planning documents it is the intent
of the City to:
1. Collect impact fees to fund parks and recreation capital improvements required to serve growth,
and
2. To use revenue generated from impact fees to benefit new development by maintaining current
citywide levels of service.
Impact fees are one-time payments used to construct system improvements needed to accommodate
new development. An impact fee represents new growth's fair share of capital facility needs. By law,
impact fees can only be used for capital improvements, not operating or maintenance costs. Impact fees
are subject to legal standards, which require fulfillment of three key elements: need, benefit and
proportionality.
• First, to justify a fee for public facilities, it must be demonstrated that new development will
create a need for capital improvements.
• Second, new development must derive a benefit from the payment of the fees (i.e., in the form
of public facilities constructed within a reasonable timeframe).
• Third, the fee paid by a particular type of development should not exceed its proportional share
of the capital cost for system improvements.
TischlerBise evaluated possible methodologies, and documented appropriate demand indicators by type
of development to document levels of service and calculate fees. Local demographic data and
improvement costs were used to identify specific capital costs attributable to growth. This report includes
summary tables indicating the specific factors, referred to as level of service standards, used to derive the
impact fees.
The geographic area for the Parks and Recreation Facilities impact fees is the City of South Miami; and the
demand indicator is residential development.

INTRODUCTION
$
Impact fees are one-time payments used to construct system improvements needed to accommodate
new development. An impact fee represents new growth's proportionate share of capital facilities. Impact
fees have defined parameters for use. They are not a complete solution for infrastructure financing needs.
Rather, they are one component of a comprehensive portfolio to ensure provision of adequate public
facilities. Impact fees may only be used for capital improvements or debt service for growth -related
infrastructure. In contrast to general taxes, impact fees may not be used for operations, maintenance,
replacement or correction of existing deficiencies.
General Legal Framework
Both state and federal courts have recognized the imposition of impact fees on development as a
legitimate form of land use regulation, provided the fees meet standards intended to protect against
regulatory takings. Land use regulations, development exactions, and impact fees are subject to the Fifth
Amendment prohibition on taking of private property for public use without just compensation. To comply
with the Fifth Amendment, development regulations must be shown to substantially advance a legitimate
governmental interest. In the case of impact fees, that interest is in the protection of public health, safety,
and welfare by ensuring that development is not detrimental to the quality of essential public services.
The means to this end are also important, requiring both procedural and substantive due process. The
process followed to receive community input, with stakeholder meetings, work sessions, and public
hearings provide opportunity for comments and refinements to the impact fees.
There is little federal case law specifically dealing with impact fees, although other rulings on other types
of exactions (e.g., land dedication requirements) are relevant. In one of the most important exaction
cases, the U. S. Supreme Court found that a government agency imposing exactions on development must
demonstrate an "essential nexus" between the exaction and the interest being protected (see Nollan v.
California Coastal Commission,1987). In a more recent case (Dolan v. City of Tigard, OR, 1994), the Court
ruled that an exaction also must be "roughly proportional" to the burden created by development.
However, the Dolan decision appeared to set a higher standard of review for mandatory dedications of
land than for monetary exactions such as impact fees.
There are three reasonable relationship requirements for impact fees that related closely to "rational
nexus" or "reasonable relationship" requirements enunciated by a number of state courts. Although the
term "dual rational nexus" is often used to characterize the standard by which courts evaluate the validity
of impact fees under the U.S. Constitution, we prefer a more rigorous formulation that recognizes three
elements: "need," "benefit," and "proportionality." The dual rational nexus test explicitly addresses only
the first two, although proportionality is reasonably implied, and was specifically mentioned by the U.S.
Supreme Court in the Dolan case. Individual elements of the nexus standard are discussed further in the
following paragraphs.
All new development in a community creates additional demands on some, or all, public facilities provided
by local government. If the capacity of facilities is not increased to satisfy that additional demand, the
quality or availability of public services for the entire community will deteriorate. Impact fees may be used
to recover the cost of development -related facilities, but only to the extent that the need for facilities is
a consequence of development that is subject to the fees. The Nollan decision reinforced the principle
that development exactions may be used only to mitigate conditions created by the developments upon
which they are imposed. That principle clearly applies to impact fees. In this study, the impact of

development on infrastructure needs is analyzed in terms of quantifiable relationships between various
types of development and the demand for specific facilities, based on applicable level of service standards.
The requirement that exactions be proportional to the impacts of development was clearly stated by the
U.S. Supreme Court in the Dolan case (although the relevance of that decision to impact fees has been
debated) and is logically necessary to establish a proper nexus. Proportionality is established through the
procedures used to identify development -related capital costs, and in the methods used to calculate
impact fees for various types of facilities and categories of development. The demand for facilities is
measured in terms of relevant and measurable attributes of development (e.g. a typical housing unit's
household size).
FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING
A sufficient benefit relationship requires that impact fee revenues be segregated from other funds, and
that they be expended only on the facilities for which the fees were charged. Impact fees must be
expended in a timely manner and the facilities funded by the fees must serve the development paying the
fees. However, nothing in the U.S. Constitution or the state enabling legislation requires that facilities
funded with fee revenues be available exclusively to development paying the fees. In other words, benefit
may extend to a general area including multiple real estate developments. Procedures for the earmarking
and expenditure of fee revenues are discussed further below. All of these procedural, as well as
substantive, issues are intended to ensure that new development benefits from the impact fees they are
required to pay. The authority and procedures to implement impact fees is separate from, and
complementary to, the authority to require improvements as part of subdivision or zoning review.
Unique Requirements of the Florida Impact Fee Act
In Florida, impact fees are an outgrowth of home rule power and compared to other states, the enabling
legislation is relatively brief. [See Appendix B — Florida Statute: 163.31801] The Act requires the
calculation of impact fees to be based on most recent and localized data. Administrative charges for the
collection of impact fees are limited to actual costs. The chief financial officer of the local government has
specific responsibilities for accounting and reporting collections and expenditures of impact fees. In
contrast to the legal precedent in other states, Florida law states, "In any action challenging an impact
fee, the government has the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that the imposition
or amount of the fee meets the requirements of state legal precedent or this section."
As documented in this report, the City of South Miami has complied with the Florida Impact Fee Act and
applicable legal precedents. Impact fees are proportionate and reasonably related to the capital
improvement demands of new development. Specific costs have been identified using local data and
current dollars. With input from City staff, TischlerBise determined demand indicators for each type of
infrastructure and calculated proportionate share factors to allocate costs by type of development. This
report documents the formulas and input variables used to calculate the impact fees for three types of
parks and recreation capital components. Impact fee methodologies also identify the extent to which new
development is entitled to various types of credits to avoid potential double payment of growth -related
capital costs.

Methodologies and Credits
CONCEPTUAL IMPACT FEE CALCULATION
In contrast to project -level improvements, impact fees fund growth -related infrastructure that will benefit
multiple development projects, or the entire jurisdiction (usually referred to as system improvements).
The first step is to determine an appropriate demand indicator for the particular type of infrastructure.
The demand indicator measures the number of demand units (e.g., population) for each unit of
development. For example, an appropriate indicator of the demand for parks is population growth and
the increase in population can be estimated from the average number of persons per housing unit. The
second step in the impact fee formula is to determine infrastructure units per demand unit, typically called
level of service (LOS) standards. In keeping with the park example, a common LOS standard is park acreage
per thousand people. The third step in the impact fee formula is the cost of various infrastructure units.
To complete the park example, this part of the formula would establish the cost per acre for land
acquisition and/or park improvements.
CALCULATION METHODOLOGIES
Impact fees can be calculated by any one of several legitimate methods. The choice of a particular method
depends primarily on the service characteristics and planning requirements for each facility type. Each
method has advantages and disadvantages in a particular situation, and to some extent can be
interchangeable, because each allocates facility costs in proportion to the needs created by development.
Reduced to its simplest terms, the process of calculating impact fees involves two main steps: (1)
determining the cost of development -related capital improvements, and (2) allocating those costs
equitably to various types of development. In practice, though, the calculation of impact fees can become
quite complicated because of the many variables involved in defining the relationship between
development and the need for facilities. The following paragraphs discuss three basic methods for
calculating impact fees, and possible application of each method.
Cost Recovery or Buy -in Fee Calculation. The rationale for the cost recovery approach is that new
development is paying for its share of the useful life and remaining capacity of facilities already built or
land already purchased from which new growth will benefit. This methodology is often used for systems
that were oversized such as sewer and water facilities.
Incremental Expansion Fee Calculation. The incremental expansion method documents the current level
of service (LOS) for each type of public facility in both quantitative and qualitative measures, based on an
existing service standard (such as square feet per student). This approach ensures that there are no
existing infrastructure deficiencies or surplus capacity in existing infrastructure. New development is only
paying its proportionate share for growth -related infrastructure. The level of service standards are
determined in a manner similar to the current replacement cost approach used by property insurance
companies. However, in contrast to insurance practices, the fee revenues would not be for renewal and/or
replacement of existing facilities. Rather, revenue will be used to expand or provide additional facilities,
as needed, to accommodate new development. An incremental expansion cost method is best suited for
public facilities that will be expanded in regular increments, with LOS standards based on current
conditions in the community.
Plan -Based Fee Calculation. The plan -based method allocates costs for a specified set of improvements to
a specified amount of development. Facility plans identify needed improvements, and land use plans
identify development. In this method, the total cost of relevant facilities is divided by total demand to
calculate a cost per unit of demand. Then, the cost per unit of demand is multiplied by the amount of
6 11
TischlerBise
FISCAL I ECONOMIC I PLANNING
Impact Fee Study
South Miami, Florida
demand per unit of development (e.g., housing units or square feet of building area) in each category to
arrive at a cost per specific unit of development (e.g., single family detached unit).
CREDITS
Regardless of the methodology, a consideration of "credits" is integral to the development of a legally
valid impact fee methodology. There are two types of "credits," each with specific and distinct
characteristics, but both of which should be addressed in the calculation of impact fees. The first is a credit
dueto possible double payment situations. This could occurwhen contributions are made bythe property
owner toward the capital costs of the public facility covered by the impact fee. This type of credit, when
applicable, is integrated into the impact fee calculation. The second is a credit toward the payment of a
fee for dedication of public sites or improvements provided by the developer and for which the facility
fee is imposed. This type of credit is addressed in the administration and implementation of a facility fee
program.
FEE METHODOLOGIES
Each of the fee methodologies discussed above were considered to calculate impact fees for the City of
South Miami. Where capacity is sufficient to serve current demand the incremental expansion method
documents the current level of service (LOS) for each type of public facility. The following table
summarizes the method(s) used to derive the impact fee for each component of the Parks and Recreation
Facilities impact fees.

REPORTING RESULTS
Calculations throughout this report memo are based on an analysis conducted using Excel software.
Results are discussed in the memo using one -and two -digit places (in most cases), which represent
rounded figures. However, the analysis itself uses figures carried to their ultimate decimal places;
therefore the sums and products generated in the analysis may not equal the sum or product if the reader
replicates the calculation with the factors shown in the report (due to the rounding of figures shown, not
in the analysis).

Maximum Allowable Impact Fees by Type of Land Use
Figure 2 provides a schedule of the maximum allowable impact fees by type of land use for the City of
South Miami. The fees represent the highest amount allowable for each type of applicable land use, and
represents new growth's fair share of the cost for parks and recreation capital facilities. The City may
adopt fees that are less than the amounts shown. However, a reduction in impact fee revenue will
necessitate an increase in other revenues, a decrease in planned capital expenditures, and/or a decrease
in levels of service.
The fees for residential development are to be assessed per housing unit and should be collected when
building permits are issued. The fees are presented by size of the unit, based on square footage and
persons per housing unit factors. See Appendix Afor further explanation of these factors and fee options.

While the City of South Miami is constrained in terms of its ability to purchase additional parkland, the
City desires to maintain the same level -of -service for parklands into the future. Thus, the incremental
expansion methodology is used to calculate this component of the Parks and Recreation Facilities impact
fees.

The City intends to use impact fees to acquire land for future parks and to develop undeveloped parkland.
Figure 5 provides a current inventory of City -maintained parkland, both undeveloped and developed, all
within a citywide service area.
As shown in Figure 5, the current level -of -service is 4.41 acres per 1,000 residents (rounded), based on a
dividing the 59.34 parkland acres by the current population of 13,453.
The cost per person is calculated by multiplying the current level -of -service (4.41 acres per thousand
persons) by the estimated cost to purchase an acre of land in South Miami ($1.58 million per acre) and
dividing this total by 1,000. This results in a current parkland cost per person of $7,006. The cost per acre
assumption is based on a recent purchase of a parcel totaling 14,810 square feet at a cost of $580,000
($1.58 million per acre).

PARKLAND DEVELOPMENT
The City of South Miami plans to maintain the current level of service for developed parkland within a
citywide service area. The incremental expansion methodology is used to calculate this component of the
Parks and Recreation Facilities impact fees.
The City intends to use impact fees to develop a portion of its undeveloped inventory of parkland. In order
to host improvements such as athletic fields, playgrounds, parking, picnic and other amenities, basic

infrastructure (e.g., sewer/water, parking, grading, etc.) must be developed. Figure 5 provides a current
inventory of City -maintained parkland, including 10 acres of undeveloped land designated as South Miami
Park, 11.5 acres comprised of the Underline and 37.84 acres of developed parkland, all with a citywide
service area.
As shown in Figure 5, the current level of service is 2.81 acres per 1,000 residents (rounded), based on a
dividing the 37.84 developed acres by the current population of 13,453.
The cost per person is calculated by multiplying the current LOS (2.81 acres per thousand persons) by the
estimated cost to develop a park acre provided by the City ($175,000 per acre) and dividing this total by
1,000. This results in a current parkland development cost per person of $492.

PARK IMPROVEMENTS
The park improvements component is based on the incremental expansion methodology. The City of
South Miami maintains active and passive park improvements for use by the current population. As the
resident population grows, the City intends to use impact fee revenue to add park improvements to
existing parks as necessary to maintain the current level of service of 3.20 amenity units per 1,000
residents. As shown below, the City has 43 park improvements including sports fields and courts,

playgrounds, and picnic amenities. The combined value of park improvements is $5,075,586. The
calculation to determine level of service is as follows: 43 units / (13,453/1,000 residents) = 3.20 amenity
units per 1,000 residents (rounded). The average cost per unit of existing park improvements is $118,037.
To calculate the cost of park improvements per capita, the average cost per amenity unit is multiplied by
the level of service resulting in a park improvement cost per capita of $377.

Credits
A credit is only necessary for principal payments when outstanding debt obligations will be repaid in part
through dedicated revenue (e.g., property taxes), thereby creating a "double dip", charging new residence
once through impact fees and then secondarily through another revenue source for the same
infrastructure. The City of South Miami has not borrowed money to fund land acquisition or development
of park improvments within the park system for which impact fees will be assessed. Further, the cash flow
projection indicates that growth -related impact fee revenue equals growth -related expenditures. Because
of this, TischlerBise recommends the Parks and Recreation Facilities impact fees not include a credit.
Parks and Recreation Input Variables and Impact Fees
Figure 8 provides a summary of the input variables (described in the chapter sections above) used to
calculate the net capital cost per person of parkland acquisition, parkland development, park
improvements. The Parks and Recreation impact fees are the product of persons per housing unit (see
Appendix A — Land Use Assumptions), by type, multiplied by the total net capital cost per person.
Fees are provided for all units based on unit size and applicable persons per housing unit. Each Persons
per Housing Unit factor is multiplied by the net capital cost per person to derive the impact fee per unit.
An example of the calculation for 1,501-1,750 square foot unit is: the net capital cost per person
($7,875.37) multiplied by the persons per housing unit for that size unit (2.63) to derive the impact fee of
$20,712.

Cash Flow Projections
This section summarizes the potential cash flow to the City of South Miami, if development occurs as
projected, and the Parks and Recreation impact fee is implemented at the maximum allowable amounts.
The cash flow projections are based on the assumptions detailed in this chapter, and the development
projections discussed in Appendix A— Land Use Assumptions. The cash flow provides an indication of the
impact fee revenue generated by new development, and capital expenditures necessary to meet the
demand for new parks and recreation facilities brought about by new development.
Necessary expenditures associated with the incremental expansion of developed parkland, and park
improvements are calculated based on current costs per unit based on unit size, and on maintaining the
current levels of service. In total, revenues are projected to cover 100 percent of the cost for Park and
Recreational improvments.

Impact Fee Study
South Miami, Florida
All costs in the impact fee calculations are given in current dollars with no assumed inflation rate over
time. Necessary cost adjustments can be made as part of the recommended annual evaluation and update
of impact fees. One approach is to adjust for inflation in construction costs by means of an index like the
one published by Engineering News Record (ENR). This index can be applied against the calculated impact
fee. If cost estimates change significantly the City should recalculate the fees.
There are certain accounting procedures that should be followed by the City. For example, monies
received should be placed in a separate fund and accounted for separately and may only be used for the
purposes authorized in an impact fee ordinance. Interest earned on monies in the separate fund should
be credited to the fund.
Credits and Reimbursements
If a developer constructs a parks and recreation facilities component that was included in the fee
calculations or dedicates land for future investments, it will be necessary to either reimburse the
developer or provide a credit against the Parks and Recreation Facilities impact fees. The latter option is
more difficult to administer because it creates unique fees for specific geographic areas. Based on
TischlerBise's experience, it is better for the City to establish a reimbursement agreement with the
developer that constructs a system improvement. The reimbursement agreement should be limited to a
payback period of no more than ten years and the City should not pay interest on the outstanding balance.
The developer must provide sufficient documentation of the actual cost incurred for the system
improvement. The City should only agree to pay the lesser of the actual construction cost or the estimated
cost used in the impact fee analysis. If the City pays more than the cost used in the fee analysis, there will
be insufficient fee revenue. Reimbursement agreements should only obligate the City of South Miami to
reimburse developers annually according to actual fee collections from the benefiting area.
Collection and Expenditure Zones
The reasonableness of impact fees is determined in part by their relationship to the local government's
burden to provide necessary public facilities. The need to show a substantial benefit usually requires
communities to evaluate collection and expenditure zones for public facilities that have distinct
geographic service areas. Therefore, developments paying fees will be benefiting from the provision of
additional capital improvements in their service area. The impact fees prepared for the City of South
Miami are based on capital improvements that will have citywide benefits; therefore, a citywide service
area is appropriate.

APPENDIX A ® LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS
Introduction
As part of our Work Scope, TischlerBise has prepared documentation on demographic data and
development projections that will be used in the City of South Miami Parks and Recreation Facilities
Impact Fee Study. The demographic estimates for 2019 will be used in the fee calculations. The
development projections are used solely to illustrate a possible future pace for service demands, impact
fee revenues, and capital expenditures.
Base year residential development estimates were developed based on historic trends, current data
maintained by the Miami -Dade County Assessor's Office, and discussions with staff.
Three assumptions informed the calculation of projections for each year past the base. First, TischlerBise
assumed historic trends would continue. Lastly, the projections assume the City of South Miami would
not annex additional lands for development in the twenty-year projection window.
The data herein are for the City of South Miami 2019 Parks and Recreation Facilities Impact Fee Study.
Residential Development
PERSONS PER HOUSING UNIT
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, a household is a housing unit that is occupied by year-round
residents. Impact fees often use per capita standards and persons per housing unit (PPHU) or persons per
household (PPH) to derive proportionate -share fee amounts.
• When PPHU is used in the fee calculations, infrastructure standards are derived using year-round
population.
• When PPH is used in the fee calculations, the impact fee methodology assumes all housing units
will be occupied, thus requiring seasonal or peak population to be used when deriving
infrastructure standards.
TischlerBise recommends that impact fees for residential development in the City of South Miami be
imposed according to the number of year-round residents per housing unit (PPHU). This methodology
assumes some portion of the housing stock will be vacant; and according to the U.S. Census Bureau
American Community Survey, the City had a 2017 vacancy rate of 12 percent.
Persons per housing unit (PPHU) requires data on population in occupied units and the types of units by
structure. These data are collected in the U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey (ACS). Figure
Al below shows 2017 ACS 5-year estimates for the City of South Miami. To calculate the PPHU, persons
in occupied units (12,108) is divided by total housing units (4,793). Dwellings with a single unit per
structure (detached, attached, and manufactured homes) averaged 2.93 persons per housing unit.
Dwelling units in structures with multiple units averaged 1.76 persons per housing unit. The 2017 average
persons per housing unit (PPHU) of 2.53 will be held constant over the projection period since the impact
fees represents a "snapshot approach" of current levels of service and costs. The 2.53 PPHU factor will be
applied to the base year 2019 housing unit estimate calculated above.

YEAR-ROUND POPULATION ESTIMATES AND PROJECTIONS
Based on recent growth trends and discussions with City staff, TischlerBise calculated a base year
population estimate, for use in the Impact Fee Study. Please note: because population estimates used in
the impact fee study are based on year-round population, estimates and projections presented herein
will be lower than the University of Florida's Bureau of Economic and Business Research household
population data.
To calculate a 2019 year-round population, TischlerBise used population projections developed by the
Florida Housing Data Clearinghouse to determine the projected rate of population growth in the city. The
American Community Survey estimates the City had a 2016 population of 12,911. According to the FHDC's
long-term growth projections, the population of South Miami is projected be 17,213 by 2040. This equates
to roughly a 1.38 percent growth rate for the city population between 2016 and 2040. See Figure A2 for
additional detail. The comppounded annual growth rate of 1.38 percent was used to estimate a 2019 base
year population of 13,453 forthe City of South Miami.

[1) 2011-201S Amerimn Community Survey S-Year Estimates
(2] Florida Housing Data Clearinghouse (FHDC)
DEMAND INDICATORS BY SIZE OF HOUSING UNIT
TischlerBise analyzed demographic data in an effort to refine the impact fee schedule to be more
progressive for residential development. This can be done by developing fees by size of housing unit based
on square footage. Household size can be derived using custom tabulations of demographic data by
bedroom range from survey responses provided by the U.S. Census Bureau in files known as Public Use
Micro -data Samples (PUMS). Because PUMS data are only available for areas of roughly 100,000 persons,
the City of South Miami is in Florida Public Use Micro -data Area (PUMA) 04014. Data is first analyzed for
the PUMA area and then calibrated to conditions in the City.
TischlerBise combines this data with 2018 U.S. Census Bureau Survey of Construction Estimates forsingle-
family and multifamily units in the South Atlantic region to derive persons per housing unit by unit size.
As shown in Figure A3, these figures were scaled to make the average value by size of unit for Florida

TischlerBise used a two-step process to project housing units for each year past base year 2019. First, to
calculate units added each year, the annual net population increase was divided by the PPHU factor (2.53)
which is derived from the U.S. Census Bureau 2017 American Community Survey. The total units estimate
was then distributed by type of structure using the assumed 2017 proportions. According to the Census
data, the housing unit inventory in the City is 65 percent single-family units and 35 percent multifamily
units, as shown in Figure A4.

Title XI 163.31801- Impact fees; short title; intent; definitions;
ordinances levying impact fees
FLORIDA IMPACT FEE ACT
(1) This section may be cited as the "Florida Impact Fee Act."
(2) The Legislature finds that impact fees are an important source of revenue for a local
government to use in funding the infrastructure necessitated by new growth. The Legislature
further finds that impact fees are an outgrowth of the home rule power of a local government
to provide certain services within its jurisdiction. Due to the growth of impact fee collections
and local governments' reliance on impact fees, it is the intent of the Legislature to ensure that,
when a county or municipality adopts an impact fee by ordinance or a special district adopts an
impact fee by resolution, the governing authority complies with this section.
(3) An impact fee adopted by ordinance of a county or municipality or by resolution of a special
district must, at minimum:
(a) Require that the calculation of the impact fee be based on the most recent and localized
data.
(b) Provide for accounting and reporting of impact fee collections and expenditures. If a local
governmental entity imposes an impact fee to address its infrastructure needs, the entity
shall account for the revenues and expenditures of such impact fee in a separate
accounting fund.
(c) Limit administrative charges for the collection of impact fees to actual costs.
(d) Require that notice be provided no less than 90 days before the effective date of an
ordinance or resolution imposing a new or increased impact fee. A county or municipality
is not required to wait 90 days to decrease; suspend, or eliminate an impact fee.
(4) Audits of financial statements of local governmental entities and district school boards which
are performed by a certified public accountant pursuant to s. 218.39 and submitted to the
Auditor General must include an affidavit signed by the chief financial officer of the local
governmental entity or district school board stating that the local governmental entity or district
school board has complied with this section.
(5) In any action challenging an impact fee, the government has the burden of proving by a
preponderance of the evidence that the imposition or amount of the fee meets the
requirements of state legal precedent or this section. The court may not use a deferential
standard.
