  • Sewer Connection/Capacity Fee (City of Fruitland Park, SFR)
    City of Fruitland Park
    RE-FLAGGED 2026-08-05. The $3,935 is correctly transcribed, but the code is self-contradictory and no city document breaks the tie. Sec. A-15 defines the wastewater impact fee TWO incompatible ways in one sentence: 'same as ... Lady Lake plus $763.00 per ERU' AND 'Until otherwise adjusted, the wastewater impact fee is $3,935.00 per ERU'. Lady Lake's rate was independently verified this session at $3,322, so the FORMULA reading computes to $4,085 — $150 higher than the codified flat figure. Working backwards, $3,935 implies a Lady Lake rate of $3,172, which Lady Lake has not charged since Ord. 2020-03. No city-published schedule resolves it: the utility page 404s and the 2022 ordinance agenda PDFs 404 to direct retrieval. Amount left at $3,935 (the codified flat figure, the more conservative reading) but the row is flagged so the number is recorded without being presented as settled. Code retrieved via the Municode content API at the current supplement. Round-2 2026-08-05; docs/verify-r2-C-lake.json.

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.
