Residents of newly constructed homes will see higher water and sewer fees, as well as impact fees, after a vote this week of the Grass Valley City Council.
For a single-family home the impact fee will rise from $5,115 to $5,279, or $164 more per year. The increase will take effect Sept. 1.
Impact fees are one-time fees assessed when a structure is built.
“For people who move into these new units, they do use police and fire services, use the roads, the parks, so the fees are impacts offsetting having more people come into the city and having it grow,” Mayor Ben Aguilar said. “If we don’t have these fees, all of the departments will have more calls, but won’t have the resource funds to handle all that.”
