  § 102-57. Water impact fees.  

Latest version.

  • (a)

    Purpose. To share in the capital cost of existing and future water supply and treatment and transmission facilities, an impact fee shall be charged to every property owner connecting to the city's water system. The impact fees shall be used only for construction of new water supply and treatment and transmission facilities and not for renewal or replacement of existing facilities.

    (b)

    Amount. The amount of impact fees for water service shall be found in the City of Winter Park fee schedule, which shall be reviewed and adopted by the city commission at least twice annually. The amount of impact fees that will be scheduled shall be established as required by Florida law, including the requirements of the Florida Impact Fee Act, F.S. § 163.31801.

    The number of dwelling units shall be determined using the definition in section 102-132. Equivalent residential connection (ERC) shall be calculated utilizing the following formula with reference to the standard plumbing code as adopted and amended by the city:

    One ERC Unit = 
    		Total Number of Fixture Units X 21

    350

     

    In no event will the impact fee for water service be less than one ERC.

    (c)

    Exceptions. The impact fees established by this section shall not apply to second or additional meters serving the same user on the same premises where the second or additional meter is solely for irrigation, swimming pools, water-cooled air-conditioning and other uses or water not entering the sewer system. Such use shall be determined in accordance with subsection 102-132(f).

    (d)

    Due date. Such charges shall be in addition to all other charges and shall be paid when the water connection permit is issued. This impact fee is subject to the West Fairbanks Avenue District Water/Sewer Impact Fee Deferral Program established in section 102-2 of the Municipal Code.
