Park Fees Update 4 May 24, 2005 Staff recently completed a survey of park impact fees in various jurisdictions. The City's proposed fee will place it at the 76`h percentile rank of the locations surveyed. The median fee levied by the various jurisdictions is $11,500. It should be noted, however, that several jurisdictions do not include a park improvement component as a part of their fee. When the park improvement component is included, the proposed fee places lower than the 76`h percentile rank. The results of the survey follow in Table 3.
