  • City Impact Fees (City of Monticello)
    City of Monticello
    CONFIRMED $0 — no city development impact fee program. Two independent checks (7/13/2026): (1) the City's posted 'Development Fees' schedule (Ch. 54 LDR) lists only engineering-review and administrative fees (site plan review, plat review, rezoning, annexation, sign permits) — no impact/capacity fees; (2) the Monticello Code of Ordinances (Municode, Supp. 15, codified thru Ord. 2024-4) has NO impact-fee chapter — chapters run 1, 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42, 46, 50, 54, 58, 62, 66, 70, 74, 78, 82, 86, 90 with no impact-fee article.

County$110.02
  • Jefferson County EMS Impact Fee — 50% × $123.72/DU
    Jefferson County
    Code Ch. 19 Art. III §19-64(b): fee = 50 percent of the rates set forth = 0.50 × $123.72 = $61.86 per dwelling unit. The $123.72 in the code is the FULL study rate, not the collected fee (proved by §19-98/§19-136, which adopt 'zero percent' of their listed rates and collect $0). Prior DB value of $123.72 was a 2x overstatement. APPLICABILITY IN MONTICELLO: §19-62(a) states the EMS fee is imposed throughout the county including municipalities, BUT §19-5 provides the chapter 'shall not be enforced within a municipality unless the county and the municipality enter into an interlocal agreement.' No such interlocal located. Unconfirmed pending (a) the collected amount and (b) an executed county–Monticello interlocal: Jefferson County Building Dept (850) 342-0223. Re-verified 7/13/2026.

  • Jefferson County Fire Rescue Impact Fee — 50% × $96.32/DU
    Jefferson County
    Code Ch. 19 Art. II §19-32(b): fee = 50 percent of the rates set forth = 0.50 × $96.32 = $48.16 per dwelling unit (the $96.32 in the code is the full study rate, not the collected fee — see §19-98/§19-136 'zero percent' parallel). Prior DB value of $96.32 was a 2x overstatement. APPLICABILITY IN MONTICELLO: §19-32(a) and §19-30(a) impose the fire fee inside a municipality only if it has CONSENTED to the fee and PARTICIPATES in the county fire rescue system; §19-5 additionally requires a county–municipality interlocal agreement before any part of Ch. 19 is enforced in a municipality. Neither a consent resolution nor an interlocal was located. Unconfirmed pending confirmation of applicability and amount: Building Dept (850) 342-0223. Re-verified 7/13/2026.

V §19-136: 'The board hereby adopts a law enforcement impact fee equal to zero percent of the rates set forth below — Residential (per dwelling unit): $481.25.' Nothing is collected; the $481.25 is the dormant full study rate. (§19-5 would also require a county–Monticello interlocal before any Ch. 19 fee is enforced in the city.) RECHECK EACH CYCLE — a BOCC move above zero percent would make this the county's largest residential impact fee. Checked 7/13/2026.

    Jefferson County
    CONFIRMED $0 — adopted at a ZERO rate countywide. Code Ch. 19 Art. IV §19-98: 'The board hereby adopts a road impact fee equal to zero percent of the rates set forth below.' Nothing is collected, in the unincorporated area or in Monticello. (Separately, §19-5 would bar enforcement inside Monticello absent a county–city interlocal agreement in any event.) A future BOCC action raising the percentage would activate it — RECHECK EACH CYCLE. Checked 7/13/2026.

Water$1,130.00
  • Monticello Water System Charge (MF)
    City of Monticello
    Entered at 1.0 residential equivalent (RE) per MF unit = $1,130, i.e. the posted per-connection rate. Basis: Code §90-165(c) — 'The water system development charge shall be based upon residential equivalents and set by resolution.' Unlike the tap fee, this charge DOES have an RE basis, so a per-unit MF rate exists in principle; however the RE factor assigned to a multifamily unit is set by resolution and is NOT published, so the 1.0 RE/unit assumption is unverified (a typical MF unit is often < 1.0 RE, which would make this an overstatement). Unconfirmed pending the adopted RE schedule: City Hall utilities office (850) 342-0153. §90-165(d): rate reviewed at least every five years. Re-verified 7/13/2026.

  • Monticello Water Tap Fee (MF)

The City's schedule prices the water tap PER PHYSICAL 3/4" CONNECTION ($1,320 inside city / $1,650 outside), not per dwelling unit, and states 'larger taps and higher capacity may require increased fees.' A multifamily building is served by one larger tap sized to the building, so the SFR 3/4" figure is NOT a valid per-unit MF rate. Prior DB value of $1,320/unit was the SFR rate copied across — corrected to $0 + Unconfirmed pending a quoted tap size/price. Tap permit/fee authority: Code §90-131.

Basis: Code §90-62(b) — 'The sewer system development charge shall be based upon residential equivalents and set by resolution.' The charge has an RE basis, so a per-unit MF rate exists in principle, but the RE factor for a multifamily unit is set by resolution and is NOT published — the 1.0 RE/unit assumption is unverified and may overstate (MF units are commonly < 1.0 RE).

Prior DB value of $123.72 was a 2x overstatement. MF = SFR per unit by design — the fee is flat per dwelling unit and §19-2 folds multifamily units into RESIDENTIAL with no separate MF column. APPLICABILITY IN MONTICELLO: §19-62(a) imposes the EMS fee countywide including municipalities, but §19-5 bars enforcement inside a municipality absent a county–municipality interlocal agreement; none located.

  • Water Tap Fee (City of Monticello) — 3/4" connection, inside city
    City of Monticello
    Physical water tap installation fee, inside city limits, per 3/4-inch connection — the ONLY meter size the City publishes; there is no meter-size ladder for water taps anywhere in the Code or on the City site, so Subtype is left blank per the 'no meter table' convention. Outside city limits: $1,650. Separate from and in addition to the Water System Charge ($1,130). Tap permit/fee authority: Code §90-131. The City states these fees 'are subject to change as material and labor costs increase' and that 'Larger Taps and higher capacity may require increased fees' — i.e. a nonresidential tap above 3/4 inch is quoted, not published.

    City of Monticello
    City of Monticello water system development charge, per connection, inside city limits = 1 residential equivalent. Outside city limits: $1,412.50. Separate from and in addition to the Water Tap Fee ($1,320). Basis: Code §90-165(c) — 'The water system development charge shall be based upon residential equivalents and set by resolution.' NO NONRESIDENTIAL MULTIPLIER IS PUBLISHED ANYWHERE: Code Ch. 90 contains no meter-size table, no water ERC/ERU definition (the only ERU defined in Ch. 90 is a STORMWATER unit — 'the average impervious area of residential developed property per dwelling unit' — which does not apply to water), and no gpd basis; the setting resolution is not posted. The City's New Water and Sewer Connections page publishes only the 1-residential-equivalent amount and warns 'Larger Taps and higher capacity may require increased fees.' The amount entered is therefore the published 1-RESIDENTIAL-EQUIVALENT MINIMUM, not a nonres meter rate — Unconfirmed for the nonresidential multiplier only.

Two independent checks (2026-07-13): (1) the City's posted 'Schedule of Engineering Review and Administrative Development Fees' (LDR Ch. 54) contains ONLY cost-recovery review/administrative charges — site plan review $500 (new construction/additions under 3,000 sq ft) or $850 (over 3,000 sq ft) + $60 admin, pre-application conference $250/hr, minor subdivision $475, preliminary plat $750 + $20/lot, PUD final development plan (incl. 'Review Fee — Industrial Center $500 + $50/lot'), rezoning $250 + $60, sign permit $250 — with no impact, mobility, fire, park or capacity fee on any commercial land use; (2) the Monticello Code of Ordinances (Municode, thru Ord. 2024-4) has NO impact-fee chapter.

Schedule row: 'Commercial (per square foot)' (four broad categories, no ITE table). GFA basis per §19-2. Rate re-read verbatim on Municode 2026-07-13 — unchanged. AUDIT 2026-07-13 — PARTICIPATION GATE RESOLVED: the City's own Fire and Emergency Medical Services page states 'Jefferson County Fire Rescue provides fire response, basic and advanced life-support services, and patient transport services to residents in both the incorporated and unincorporated areas of the County' (cityofmonticello.us/fire-and-emergency-medical-services). Monticello runs NO municipal fire department — only the Monticello Volunteer Fire Department — and IS served by the county fire rescue system, so the §19-30(a)/§19-32(a) CONSENT-AND-PARTICIPATION gate is satisfied on the participation limb. STILL OPEN (why this stays Unconfirmed): (1) no municipal CONSENT resolution is published; (2) §19-5 bars enforcement of any part of Ch. 19 inside a municipality absent a county–city INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT, and none is posted (searched county site, Clerk's contracts index, Municode). The county Building Dept's own posted permit fee schedule (Res. 2018) lists permit fees only — no impact fee line — so it does not settle the question either way. Amount entered is the county rate that would apply if both remaining gates are satisfied. Confirm: Jefferson County Building Dept (850) 342-0223. WATCH — County RFP 2024-02 'IMPACT FEES STUDY' (advertised 1/10/2024, notice of award 3/8/2024) procures a NEW impact fee study covering Fire, EMS, Law Enforcement, Transportation AND a first-ever Parks & Recreation fee; it would replace the April 2005 GSG fire study behind this rate.

Schedule row: 'Commercial (per square foot)' (EMS schedule has only Residential / Commercial / Institutional). GFA basis per §19-2. APPLICABILITY IN MONTICELLO IS UNRESOLVED: §19-62(a) states the EMS fee 'shall be imposed throughout the county, including within the boundaries of the municipalities' (the EMS system is exclusively county-provided, so unlike Fire there is no consent/participation gate) — BUT §19-5 still provides that Ch. 19 'shall not be enforced within a municipality unless the county and the municipality enter into an interlocal agreement,' and no county–Monticello interlocal was located.

(2) Nonresidential (per square foot): $0.55.' Nothing is collected. The schedule uses a SINGLE 'Nonresidential' row — no Commercial/Office/Industrial split — so all three categories share the same dormant $0.55/sq ft study rate (Dec. 2007 GSG law enforcement study). (§19-5 would separately bar in-city enforcement absent a county–Monticello interlocal — none located — but $0 holds either way.) This is the county's largest dormant nonresidential fee. AUDIT 2026-07-13: §19-136(b) re-read verbatim on Municode — still 'zero percent'. WATCH — County RFP 2024-02 'IMPACT FEES STUDY' (advertised 1/10/2024, award 3/8/2024) procures a NEW impact fee study covering Fire, EMS, Law Enforcement, Transportation AND a first-ever Parks & Recreation fee; it is the trigger that would lift the zero-percent adoption.

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.

Frequently asked questions

What are the total impact fees for a single-family home in Monticello, Florida?

A new single-family home in Monticello pays $6,722.02 per unit in combined impact fees (rates sourced July 13, 2026). This figure includes amounts that have not been confirmed with the jurisdiction; verify before budgeting.

How much are commercial impact fees in Monticello?

Commercial development in Monticello pays $0.48 per square foot in impact fees, plus $6,612.00 in one-time water and sewer connection fees, about $30,612.00 for a 50,000 sq ft building. This figure includes amounts that have not been confirmed with the jurisdiction; verify before budgeting.

Does Monticello charge its own impact fees?

Yes. Monticello levies its own municipal impact or utility fees, and county-levied fees also apply inside city limits. The schedule on this page shows every fee that applies to development in Monticello, with the combined total.

Can Florida impact fees increase at any time?

No. Section 163.31801, Florida Statutes limits increases to 50% at most, phased in over two to four years, unless the local government makes extraordinary-circumstances findings and approves the increase by at least a two-thirds vote.

Fee amounts on this page are compiled from official published schedules and are provided for planning purposes only. Rates change, and project specifics (unit size, meter size, location within special districts) can alter what applies.
