Bill > HB4066

This bill amends Arizona Revised Statutes section 9-463.05 concerning development fees, which are charges imposed by municipalities to cover the costs of providing public services to new developments. The key provision added by this bill, under a new subsection T, states that a municipality can only impose a development fee on a single "service unit" (a standardized measure of a development's impact on public services) for a necessary public service (like water, sewer, or roads) that is proportionate to the actual use of that service by the development. This means a developer of a single service unit cannot be charged more for improving a public service than what is needed to address the increased use caused by that specific development. The bill also makes minor technical corrections to existing language, such as changing "improvement plan" to "improvements plan" and "five year" to "five-year," and clarifies that "storm water" should be written as "stormwater."
