Development Impact Fee - Fire

“New development in the City will result in an increase in the service population and, therefore, in the demand for the services of the City's Fire Department. The purpose of the MPFP Fire Fee is to provide funding to construct new fire stations that are needed to provide adequate fire fighting and emergency medical services to the expanded service population.”

“The MPFP Fire Fee will be used to construct new facilities needed to accommodate increased demand projected as a result of new development. Two new fire stations are planned in the southeast and northeast areas of the City.”

“The MPFP Fee Program applies to all development in the City. All new residential and nonresidential commercial development that occurs in the City shall pay the MPFP Fees in effect at the time that a building permit is issued.”

“The Major Projects Financing Plan (MPFP) Fee Program was established in the 1990s to fund backbone infrastructure and other public facilities required to serve development in the City of Woodland (City). Since the MPFP Fee Program was established, the City has adopted several periodic updates to the MPFP Fee Program to reflect changes in land uses, facilities requirements and costs, funding sources, and the fee calculation methodology. The last MPFP Fee Nexus Study Update and comprehensive MPFP Fee Program update were adopted by the City in December 2008.”

“Development fees will be included in the cost of the building permit and are due prior to issuance of the building permit. In the case of connection to services without a building permit, fees will be paid prior to connection.”

City of Woodland, the agency that levies it

“The MPFP Fee Program development impact fees are collected at building permit issuance from developers of residential and commercial property. The City administers the MPFP Fee Program and collects the MPFP Fees.”

“Contact Community Development Department for fees related to ADU's. No MPFP fees shall be charged on an ADU < 750 sq. ft.”

“Once sufficient funds have been collected to complete the specified projects, the City must commence construction within 180 days. If it fails to do this, the City is required to refund the unexpended portion of the fee and any accrued interest to the then current owners.”
