    Internal research note: EPA SDWIS confirms the town runs its own system ('TOWN OF PENNEY FARMS WTP', PWSID FL2101019, active community water system, 185 service connections, 489 population served). The town is not in Municode, American Legal, or eCode360, and its Utility Information page posts only CCR water quality reports, a garbage ordinance, and a 9/16/2025 notice of Resolutions 2025-06 and 2025-07 (CPI and Clay County Utility Authority driven water/wastewater usage rate increases effective 10/1/2025). That notice expressly says copies of the rate resolutions 'are available at the Town Hall upon request' — they are not published. No connection or tap fee amount is published anywhere. 8/5/2026

  • County Mobility Fee (Town of Penney Farms, Commercial)
    Clay County
    CONFIRMED $0 — the Clay County Mobility Fee does NOT apply inside municipal limits. Clay County Mobility Fee Ordinance (2026 restatement, eff. 6/15/2026), Sec. 2.01.A (Imposition): 'All New Construction occurring within the unincorporated area of the County shall pay the applicable Mobility Fee established in this Ordinance.' Sec. 3.06 (Applicability) repeats the unincorporated-area limit. The ordinance contains NO interlocal agreement or municipal opt-in provision, and 'County Transportation System' expressly excludes roads within a City Street System. Penney Farms levies no municipal mobility or impact fee of its own. CORRECTED ON AUDIT 2026-07-12: this record previously carried an ASSUMED Lake Asbury & Green Cove Springs DISTRICT rate ($20,131/1,000 sq ft, ITE 820) — both the district assignment and the rate were erroneous, since no county mobility fee is levied inside the town at all. This also retires the open 'district assignment assumed' question for Penney Farms. County Comprehensive Impact Fees DO apply here (separate County record). Contact: Planning & Zoning 904-269-6300.

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.
