Fiscal Note
This ordinance amendment responds to the recently enacted 2005 Wisconsin Act 477 which limits the terms under which municipal impact fees may be imposed and collected. The amendment has no direct or immediate impact on projects contained in the adopted 2006 budget, although the long term impact of conformance to the new impact fee statute may be significant.
The new statute prohibits municipalities from requiring the payment of impact fees prior to the issuance of building permits on individual parcels subject to the fee. This will significantly increase the administrative burden associated with collecting impact fees and also dramatically delay the collection of any such fees imposed. The delayed cash flow and increased administrative burden may render impact fees ineffective as a method for financing certain development related costs in the future.
