- Water Improvement Charge (City of Temple Terrace)$2,750.00 one-timeRequires confirmationCity of Temple Terrace⚠️ UNCONFIRMED AMOUNT. Code §22-48 imposes a water 'improvement charge' (= impact fee) on every new connection and §22-48(a)(1)+(b) make the COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL charge METER-SIZE based — but the code sets no dollar figures ('improvement charge established by the city') and the city publishes NO meter-size ladder anywhere. The only published figure is the city's own statement that a typical new SFR connection is ~$2,750 water, and that 'for each connection, basic fees for a 5/8-inch meter is the same as residential' — so $2,750 is entered as the 5/8"-meter base, NOT a 1" canonical default.

Sources checked: Municode (no impact-fee chapter), templeterrace.gov MTD page, Utility Rates & Fees page, city FAQ, targeted web search — none publish a $/trip figure or a nonres fee schedule.

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.
