(Impact Fees Amendments)
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING APPENDIX A OF CHAPTER 18.98 OF THE SALT LAKE
CITY CODE, RELATING TO IMPACT FEES.
Be it ordained by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah:
SECTION 1. That Section 18.98.050, Salt Lake City Code, be, and the same hereby is,
amended to read as follows:
18.98.050 Calculation Based On Fee Schedule:
Impact fees shall be calculated as follows:
A. Unless an applicant requests an independent impact fee calculation as set forth in
section 18.98.160 of this chapter, the impact fees shall be calculated for the proposed
development activity based on the permit allowing the use, according to the fee schedule in
appendix A of this chapter, less any applicable offsets under section 18.98.070 of this chapter.
B. The impact fee schedule in appendix A of this chapter is hereby adopted and
incorporated herein by reference.
C. The units of development activity specified in the fee schedule shall be interpreted
as follows:
1. Residential impact fees shall be collected by unit. For the purposes of this chapter,
modular or manufactured homes are considered residential.
2. Building square footage shall be measured in terms of gross floor area, which is the
area included within the exterior walls of a building or portion thereof, exclusive of vent shafts
and courts. The floor area of a building, or portion thereof, not provided with surrounding
exterior walls shall be the usable area under the horizontal projection of the roof or floor above.
D. For categories of uses not specified in the applicable impact fee schedule, the
director shall apply the category of use set forth in the applicable fee schedule that is deemed to
be most similar to the proposed use.
E. If the development plan approval or permit for the proposed development activity
indicates a mix of uses in the development, the impact fees shall be calculated separately for each
use according to the fee schedule, and the results aggregated.
F. For an addition to or remodeling or replacement of existing structures, or for a
change in use of an existing structure, the impact fee to be paid shall be the difference, if any,
between:
1. The fee, if any, that would be payable for existing development activity on the site or,
in the case of demolition or removal of a structure, the previous development activity on the site;
provided that the demolition or removal has occurred within twelve (12) months after the date of
submittal of the application for which impact fees are assessed; and
2. The fee, if any, that would be payable for the total development activity on the site for
the new development.
G. Upon written request of an applicant, the director shall provide an estimate of the
current fee based on the data provided by the applicant. However, the director shall not be
responsible for determining, at such preliminary date, the accuracy of the information provided,
nor shall such estimate provide any vested rights.
2
H. In any fiscal year in which an impact fee update is not conducted by the city,
impact fees will be adjusted to reflect inflationary costs using the Engineering News-Record's
construction cost index as of January 1 of that fiscal year. The adjustment shall be effective on
October 1 of the next fiscal year. The City shall provide notice to the public of any such
adjustment sixty(60) days in advance of the effective date of such adjustment.
