Queen Creek Eliminates the Library Development Impact Fee
In May 2022, the Queen Creek Town Council approved eliminating the Library impact fee when enough funds were collected to pay off the debt associated with the fee. Effective July 10, 2023, the Library impact fee will be eliminated.
Impact fees are one-time fees assessed to new development to pay for the new growth’s proportionate share of necessary public services. Historically, the Town of Queen Creek assessed six impact fees and two capacity fees. Effective July 10, 2023, the Town will assess four impact fees and two capacity fees (the Town Facility Development Impact Fee was eliminated in May 2022).
In 2019, the Town updated the impact and capacity fee rates based on 10-year growth projections. Since that time, due to growth, the fees generated revenues faster than projected, which allowed the Town to eliminate the Town Facility and Library impact fees.
The remaining development impact and capacity fees include transportation, police, fire, parks, water and wastewater. The updated fee schedule, effective July 10, is available on the Town's website.
