IMPACT FEES STUDY

The City of Brooksville is seeking a consultant to conduct an Impact Fees Study. The study will evaluate the impacts of growth on the city's Parks and Recreation, Public Facilities/Buildings, and Multi-modal/transportation services. The consultant will collect and assess data, prepare a fee determination methodology, and recommend impact fees that are proportional and reasonably connected to the need for additional capital facilities. The study must be prepared in accordance with the Florida Impact Fees Act. • The consultant will work with city staff and the city attorney to collect data and develop a comprehensive Impact Fees Study. • The study will include a description of the overall methodology utilized, calculations that demonstrate the legal dual rational nexus between recommended fees and the impacts created by new development, and recommendations on policy and criteria for fee waivers. • The consultant will prepare a single compiled report that serves as both an Impact Fee Study and Plan. • The consultant will assist the city in defending the impact fee methodology in the event of a legal challenge, if requested.
