LEARN ABOUT DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES - When Tucson grows through new development, our community grows. This can come with many benefits, such as local amenities, jobs, and improved quality of life for our community. To ensure that the City can provide adequate services for this growth, it is important that we grow the necessary facilities and services for development proportionately. The City funds its growth of services through the collection of Development Impact Fees. Those impact fees cover the proportionate cost of necessary facilities and services for the related new development. Follow the link below to learn more about what the fees are, how they are assessed, what they can be used for, and how much is collected and spent in the City of Tucson.
