About this file
This document is Ordinance #01-021, an impact fee ordinance adopted by the Board of County Commissioners of Brevard County, Florida on April 24, 2001. The ordinance amends Chapter 62 of the county's Land Development Regulations to establish and modify impact fee structures for fire/rescue facilities, emergency medical services facilities, correctional facilities, and transportation. The ordinance creates detailed fee schedules for various land use types including residential, commercial, industrial, institutional, and recreational categories, with specific impact fees calculated per dwelling, square foot, or other unit of measurement. The ordinance becomes effective on June 2, 2001, and applies to both unincorporated and incorporated areas of Brevard County.
The impact fees are designed to ensure that new development contributes its fair share to capital improvements for essential public services, with fees collected to be used exclusively for capital improvements in specific impact fee districts. The ordinance establishes separate impact fee districts with defined geographical boundaries, including districts covering Kennedy Space Center, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, and various county regions. An independent study recommended separating the emergency services impact fee program, eliminating commercial land use exemptions, and consolidating impact fee districts for administrative efficiency. The fees will not fully cover all capital improvement costs, with the county recognizing that additional revenue sources will be necessary to supplement the impact fee collections.
