What are Developer Fees?
Developer fees, commonly known as school impact fees, are charges levied on new construction projects within a school district's boundaries. These fees are essential for funding the construction or reconstruction of school facilities to accommodate growth due to new developments. By contributing to the enhancement of educational infrastructure, developer fees play a crucial role in maintaining the quality of education and ensuring schools can support an expanding student population.
