Fire and EMS Development Fee Fund<br />

Description<br />

The fire and emergency medical services (EMS) development fee fund is established to account for the<br />

inflow <strong>of</strong> fire and EMS development fees levied on new residential and commercial construction. This fee<br />

can only be used for the purchase, construction, financing, and furnishing <strong>of</strong> new capital or one-time<br />

items directly related to the increased demand on fire and emergency medical services caused by growth.<br />

Development fees cannot be used to subsidize operational needs.<br />

Revenues are based upon an estimated issuance <strong>of</strong> 250 single family residential permits and the<br />

estimated square feet <strong>of</strong> 217,800 non-single family residential permits in FY2013. On April 26, 2011<br />

Senate Bill 1525 was signed into law and changed the method the city used to calculate development<br />

impact fees. Arizona Revised Statutes §9-463.05.K requires municipalities planning to continue assessing<br />

development impact fees complete an interim study effective January 1, 2012 and an updated<br />

development impact fee study effective August 1, 2014. The city has revised fees based on the interim<br />

study and plans on meeting the requirements <strong>of</strong> the August, 2014 deadline. The fire and EMS<br />

development fee for single family residential permits was revised from $706 to $688 as <strong>of</strong> January 1,<br />

2012.<br />

Major <strong>Budget</strong> Changes<br />

With minimal forecasted development revenue for the funds, the only programed expenditures are for the<br />

impact fee study and rental payments. The city will continue to review and evaluate potential projects<br />

through the preparation <strong>of</strong> the Infrastructure Improvement Plan (IIP) for the impact fee study update.<br />
