IMPACT FEES

Some cities and towns impose an impact fee on any new construction within the city, or town limits.

• There may be one fee, or a fee for the impact on each municipal service.

• In some instances these fees total several thousand dollars, which in turn increases the cost of a new home by the same amount.

• You should always check with the town, or city clerk to determine if there are impact fees associated with the construction of a new home in the area you are considering building.
