Water$952.20
  • Water Connection Fee (Bay County, MF) — 1.0 ERC × $952.20/ERC
    Bay County Utilities
    Bay County 2026 Fees & Fines Schedule (eff. Jan 1, 2026), re-verified against the full schedule text 7-22-2026: water connection fee $952.20 per ERC (1 water ERC = 350 gpd; 1.0 ERC minimum). Separate water line tap $1,090.00. Was $529.25/ERC in 2025 — a Raftelis rate study nearly doubled it. Unconfirmed on one point only: for a master-metered MF building the ERC count is derived from total building flow rather than per unit, so the amount shown is the 1.0 ERC minimum and applies per unit only where each unit is individually metered. Confirm the MF ERC method with Bay County Utilities.

    Bay County
    Bay County 2026 Fees & Fines Schedule (eff. 1/1/2026), MSTU-Fire Services / Residential Impact Fees: Single family $187.44 | Multi-family $5.35 | Mobile home $26.29 (all unchanged from the 2025 column). Re-verified line-by-line against the full 2026 schedule text this pass: Multi-family $5.35 is printed as a distinct row inside the 'Residential Impact Fees' group, separate from the 'Non-Residential Impact Fees (per square foot)' rows (Hotel/motel $0.66, Office $0.07, etc.) — so it is NOT a header-to-row mis-map from the nonresidential per-sq-ft block; the figure faithfully reflects the county's adopted schedule as printed. The SF:MF ratio (~35x) is anomalous versus Library and Parks (MF ~0.8x SF), so the county's own schedule may carry a typo — only the Bay County Impact Fee Coordinator can settle that. Applies in unincorporated Bay County only.

How impact fees work in Florida

Florida impact fees are one-time charges on new development, governed by Section 163.31801, Florida Statutes (the Florida Impact Fee Act). The statute requires fees to be based on the most recent and localized data, spent on the infrastructure category they were collected for, and adopted by ordinance.

Since 2021, the law also limits how fast fees can rise: increases up to 25% phase in over two years, increases of 25–50% phase in over four years, and increases above 50% are allowed only with a demonstrated extraordinary-circumstances study and at least a two-thirds vote of the governing body.

Counties and cities can both levy impact fees. Inside an incorporated city, a project typically pays the county's countywide fees plus any municipal fees the city has adopted, which is why totals differ between a city and the unincorporated county around it.
