Queen Creek Town Council reviews new impact fees

Some of the impact fees levied against new development in the town of Queen Creek are proposed to go down and others to rise, according to a presentation made at the March 7 council meeting.
“These fees are paid by any building that is constructed in the town and at an aggregate level the last fiscal year we received about $20 million in that one particular year,” Finance Director Scott McCarty said at the meeting.
The fees are one-time payments made when a building permit is issued, according to the town’s website. Such fees are used to pay for capital costs associated with new growth and are assessed on residential and non-residential development.
