Strengths Weaknesses Impact Fees How It Works STANLY COUNTY These are based on a series of COCS studies performed by the AFT and the New England Forest Consortium. Residential uses, because of their high demand on public services, generally cost municipalities more than they provide in revenues, while other land uses such as commercial and open spaces generate more revenue than they require in public services. The following strengths are associated with the performance of a COCS: This type of analysis can help prepare the community to strategically manage and or quantify growth based on the real financial costs versus real financial benefits of growth. It can be used as a preliminary step in the analysis of the feasibility of imposing impact fees to finance certain types of community services. This type of analysis can help a community appropriately plan infrastructure investments based on projected revenues of the individual land uses and to meet future budget requirements and The following weaknesses are associated with the COCS process: Strict use of a COCS may indicate that certain land uses or activities are ideal given the fiscal ramifications whether or not they are locally desirable and compatible with a plan. COCS is highly controversial to the development community. An impact fee is a tool to help a community provide adequate levels of infrastructure for a growing community. Monetary fees or in-kind donations are paid by a developer to the municipality, city, or authority charged with managing a public utility or service such as water distribution or sewer collection and treatment systems. The revenue is then used to pay for upgrades to infrastructure that are needed to accommodate the additional demands on roads, parks etc. generated by a new development. Impact fees can be utilized to pay for road improvements, parkland acquisition, park improvements, utility upgrades, utility line extensions, schools, and other similar services. Based on the specific population associated with a new development, an analysis (such as a COCS as described above) is performed of how roads, parks and schools will be impacted by the new development. The questions asked include will the increase in traffic require larger roads and additional turn lanes, is more park land need to be acquired to provide open space and recreational opportunities, and are new schools required. As these questions are answered, the costs associated with each various improvement are noted and the developer is required to compensate the community and place funds in the impact fee accounts. As more and more development occurs, and the impact fee account balance rises, then the municipality can buy land needed for the park or pay for the road widening when it is needed.
