Prognosis

Not enough signal yet

In plain language

The bill allows local governments to charge impact fees for residential development.

This legislation permits any locality to impose impact fees related to residential development. These fees are designed to help cover the costs associated with new housing projects.

What this means for you
  • Families: For families, this could mean new housing developments, but potentially higher fees passed on through housing costs.
  • Small Business: If you operate a small business, the growth from new residential projects could increase your customer base.
