Government Code section 65995 and California Education Code section 17620 allows school districts to levy fees on residential or commercial/industrial construction projects within a school district’s boundaries. The State Allocation Board (SAB) sets the per-square-foot Level I school impact fees (a.k.a. “developer fees”) every two years at its January meeting in even number years (i.e., 2010, 2012). Alternative School Fees (a.k.a. Level II or Level III fees) may also be collected by districts meeting certain requirements.
Note: No fees are collected for new residential construction on additions of 500 square feet or less.
Developer Fee rates were approved by the Franklin-McKinley School District Board of Education on June 28, 2022. For additional information, you can click on:
