ARTICLE I. GENERAL.
Section. 71-1. Authority and Applicability.
(1) The City of Okeechobee (City) has the authority to adopt this chapter
and collect impact fees as provided in this chapter pursuant to home rule
powers granted to cities under Article VIII of the Constitution of the State
of Florida, Chapter 166, Florida Statutes, and pursuant to other Florida
laws, including sections 163.3201, 163.3202, and 163.31801 Florida
Statutes.
.
(2) The City has the power and responsibility to provide services and
facilities. Development within the City impacts the capital improvement
needed by the City to provide those services and facilities.
Page 1 of 14
(3) Planning for capital improvements to serve development that
generates additional demand for services and facilities and the
subsequent implementation of these plans, is a responsibility of the City.
Moreover, such planning is determined by the City Council to be in the
best interests of the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of the City.
Section. 71-2. Purpose and Intent.
(1) This chapter is intended to implement and be consistent with the goals,
objectives and policies of the City Comprehensive Plan.
(2) It is a purpose of this chapter to assist in the provision of an adequate
level of service in capital facilities, so that development may occur in a
manner consistent with the Comprehensive Plan of the City and with
Florida law which requires the provision of public facilities concurrent with
the impacts of development. Payment of impact fees does not guarantee
that the facilities necessary for the development proposed by the payer of
the impact fees will meet the requirements of concurrency.
(3) It is also the purpose of this chapter to regulate the use and
development of land to assure that development bears a proportionate
share of the cost of capital improvements that will be necessary to provide
capital facilities to adequately serve the future needs of th~ City and to
implement its Comprehensive Plan.
(4) The Florida Legislature, through the enactment of the Local
Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development Regulation
Act, Sections 163.3201, 163.3202, and 163.31801 Florida Statutes, and
the Environmental Land and Water Management Act, section 380.06(16),
Florida Statutes, and the entirety of Chapters 163 and 380, respectively,
encourages local governments to enact impact fee programs as a part of
their land development regulations to implement their comprehensive
plans.
Section. 71-3. Definitions.
For the purpose of this chapter, the following definitions shall apply unless
the context clearly indicates or requires a different meaning:
(1) Applicant. A person commencing a land development activity or a
change of use or requesting approval of a land development activity or a
change of use covered by this chapter. Also includes a person requesting
approval of in lieu impact fee payments as provided in this chapter
independently of an application for development approval or change of
use.
(2) Building Permit. Permits issued by the City authorizing the construction
or installation of buildings, structures, and other improvements including
mobile homes and recreational vehicles.
(3) Capital Cost. An expenditure which, under generally accepted
accounting principles for local governments, would be considered a one
time capital expense.
(4) Capital Improvements. Construction costs, planning, engineering,
design, surveys, inspection, testing, land acquisition, site improvements,
and other costs associated with the acquisition and construction of
facilities that will provide additional capacity.
(5) Comprehensive Plan. The comprehensive plan of City of Okeechobee,
Florida, adopted pursuant to sec. 163.3161 et. seq. Florida Statutes.
Page 2 of 14
.
(6) City Administrator. The City Administrator of the City of Okeechobee,
or a person or persons designated by the City Administrator to carry out a
function described in this chapter.
(7) City Council. The City Council of the City of Okeechobee, Florida.
(8) Dwelling Unit. Single-family and multi-family residential units attached
and detached dwellings, houses of conventional or manufactured
construction, mobile homes, recreational vehicles and all other structures
used for permanent residence, regardless of whether occupied by a tenant
or owner.
(9) Gross Floor Area. Total area of all floors of a structure measured to
exterior walls, including for example halls, stairways, and elevator shafts.
Also includes areas where business is conducted outside the walls of the
structu re.
(10) Land Development Activity or Project. Land development or the
construction of buildings or structures, or any change of use of land or of a
building or structure.
(11) Person. Any individual, company, corporation, association, or other
legal entity.
Section. 71-4. General Findings and Declarations.
(1) The City Council hereby finds that development in the City requires
additional governmental services and capital facilities.
(2) It is the policy of the City Council that new development should pay a
pro rata share of capital costs related to the additional services and
facilities required to accommodate new development.
(3) The City Council, after consideration of the City of Okeechobee Impact
Fee Study-2007 together with the experience of other similarly situated
communities, hereby finds that impact fees provide a reasonable method
of regulating development in the City so that development will pay a pro
rata share of capital costs of services and facilities necessary to
accommodate that development.
(4) Providing an adequate level of facilities and services within the City is
essential to and in the best interests of the public health, safety, and
welfare of City of Okeechobee.
(5) Under the provisions of this chapter, development shall be required to
pay a reasonable pro rata share of the capital costs related to the services
and facilities made necessary by such development. Development that
pays impact fees is not responsible for the public facility needs of existing
development that did not pay impact fees and impact fees will not be used
to cure existing deficiencies resulting from existing development.
(6) It is the policy of the City that an adequate level of service in services
and facilities will be provided throughout the City concurrent with the
impacts of development, so that development will occur in a manner
consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan.
.
(7) Based on the City of Okeechobee I mpact Fee Study-2007 the City
Council finds that a rational nexus, relationship, and connection exists
between the capital costs of Capital Improvements made necessary by
development and the impact fees to be imposed on development and
collected pursuant to this chapter, and between the expenditure of these
funds on Capital Improvements induced by growth and the benefit to the
payers of fees.
Page 3 of 14
(8) Development impacts the capital cost of providing services and
facilities. The City of Okeechobee Impact Fee Study-2007 allocates the
capital cost of providing Capital Improvements among various types of
land uses and between developments that increase demand on facilities
and existing development.
(9) This chapter provides for the collection of impact fees for Capital
Improvements necessary for the provision of adequate services and
facilities needed for development in the City based on and supported by
the City of Okeechobee Impact Fee Study-2007.
(10) The City Council provides services and facilities on a City-wide basis.
By accepting Impact fees, the City Council has an affirmative duty to
ensure that Capital Improvements necessary to provide services and
facilities that are paid for with impact fees will be of benefit to the payers of
those fees. Therefore, impact fees imposed pursuant to this chapter shall
be used to pay for those capital costs related to the Capital Improvements
that will be required for and which will benefit development in the City. By
accepting impact fees the City Council assumes responsibility for, and will
pay from revenues other than impact fees, the costs of the Capital
Improvement needs of existing development.
Section. 71-5. Exemptions.
(1) The following shall be exempt from payment of an impact fee:
(a) Alterations or expansion of an existing building or structure or a
change of use where no additional dwelling units will be produced,
where the use will not be changed, and where no additional need
for facilities will be generated over and above those generated by
the existing building, structure, or use.
(b) The construction of accessory buildings or structures or change
of use that will not generate additional need for facilities over and
above those generated by the principal building, structure or use of
the land.
(c) The replacement of a demolished or partially demolished
building or structure with a new building or structure which will not
generate additional need for facilities over and above those
generated by the original building or structure, provided that there is
no change of use of the land and that the new building or structure
is permitted and under construction within five (5) years of the date
of demolished and that such construction continues to completion
without abandonment, expiration, or loss of permits.
(2) Any claim of exemption must be made no later than the time of
application for a building permit.
Section. 71-6. General Provisions.
(1) The applicant shall pay impact fees required by this chapter to the City
prior to the issuance of the relevant building permit, certificate of
occupancy, other permit, or prior to the change of use necessitating the
impact fee payment.
(2) If impact fees are owed, no development permit of any type or
certificate of occupancy may be issued for the building or structure in
question and no construction or change of use shall be allowed while the
fee remains unpaid. The City Administrator may authorize the initiation of
any action as permitted by law or equity to suspend development activities
pending payment or to collect the unpaid fees.
Page 4 of 14
.
(3) The following condition shall be included in each development order
approving a zoning, rezoning, plat, subdivision, site plan, building permit,
or the issuance of any other development permit: "Approval of this project
is conditioned upon payment of all applicable impact fees, as provided in
the City of Okeechobee Code."
(4) A violation of this chapter is punishable as an ordinance violation as
provided in this Code. In addition to or in lieu of any criminal prosecution,
the City has the power to sue for relief in civil court to enforce the
provisions of this chapter as well as any other method of enforcement
provided by the City of Okeechobee Code. Knowingly furnishing false
information to the City Administrator or any official who is charged with the
collection of impact fees pursuant to this chapter or on any matter relating
to the administration of this chapter constitutes a violation hereof.
(5) In the case of structures, mobile homes or recreational vehicles that
are moved from one location to another, impact fees will be collected for
the new location if the structure, mobile home or recreational vehicle
constitutes one of the land development uses in the applicable Impact Fee
Schedule regardless of whether impact fees had been paid at the old
location, unless the use at the new location is a replacement of an
equivalent use. If the structure, mobile home or recreational vehicle so
moved is replaced by an equivalent use, no impact fee is owed for the
replacement use. In every case, the burden of proving past payment of
impact fees and of proving equivalency of use, rests with the applicant.
(6) No building permit, certificate of occupancy, or other permit shall be
issued or change of use of existing improvements allowed, where such
improvements to land can generate additional need for facilities, unless
and until the applicable impact fee hereby required has been paid.
(7) All expenditures of impact fee funds shall be consistent with the
principles set forth in Contractors and Builders Association v. City of
Dunedin, 329 So. 2d 314 (Fla. 1976), Hollywood. Inc.. v. Broward County,
431 So. 2d 606 (Fla. 4th DCA 1983), Home Builders and Contractors
Association of Palm Beach County. Inc. v. Board of County
Commissioners of Palm Beach City, 446 So. 2d 140 (Fla. 4th DCA 1984),
cert. denied, 451 So. 2d 848 (Fla.1984), and St. Johns County v.
Northeast Florida Builders Association Inc., 583 So. 2d 635 (Fla.1991) and
hereafter as such principles are clarified or amended by further Florida
case law.
(8) The City may impose an administrative charge not to exceed three (3)
percent of the impact fee amount in the impact fee schedule to reimburse
its actual costs for the collection of impact fees.
.
(9) The applicant may propose a schedule and method for payment of
impact fees appropriate to the particular circumstances of the proposed
development in lieu of the requirements for payment of the impact fees in
this chapter; provided that the City receives acceptable security ensuring
payment of the fees prior to the issuance of a building permit. Such
security may take the form of a cash bond, surety bond, irrevocable letter
of credit, or a negotiable certificate of deposit. Liens or mortgages on
lands to be covered by the building permit are not acceptable. Any
agreement proposed by an applicant pursuant to this subsection must be
approved by the City prior to the issuance of the building permit, certificate
of occupancy, or other permit for the applicable improvement. The City
may approve such agreements only if it is found that the agreement will
apportion the burden of new capital facilities in a just and equitable
fashion, consistent with the Florida statutory and case law.
(10) The City Administrator shall determine the classification of
improvement to be made or land use type in order to apply the correct
Page 5 of 14
impact fee in accordance with the applicable Impact Fee Schedule. The
following guidelines shall be considered in making such determination:
(a) If a building or structure is requested for mixed uses, then the
impact fee shall be determined by apportioning the Gross Floor
Area committed to uses specified on the fee schedule.
(b) If the type of development activity for which a building permit is
applied, or change of use is not specified on the fee schedule, the
City Administrator shall use the fee applicable to the most nearly
comparable type of land development on the applicable Impact Fee
Schedule provided the proposed development activity or use can
generate additional need for Capital Improvements.
(c) In the case of a change of use, redevelopment, or modification
of an existing use the impact fee shall be based upon the net
increase in the impact fee for the new use as compared to the
previous use. No impact fee refund will be granted if a net decrease
results.
(d) The applicant may submit evidence to the City Administrator
demonstrating that the impact fees set out in the Impact Fee
Schedule are not applicable to the particular development. Based
upon substantial competent evidence the City Administrator may
adjust the impact fee to be appropriate for the particular
development.
(11) The City shall not give impact fee credits for impact fees paid, or
Capital Improvements constructed, or dedications or donations of
property, except to the extent that such credit was specifically granted by
the City to an applicant in a binding written agreement. If an applicant or
successor in interest or predecessor in title has agreed in a binding written
agreement with the City or other governmental agency not to seek or
accept any impact fee credits then it shall not be given impact fee credits,
or be eligible for in lieu payments, for the construction of Capital
Improvements or the dedication or donation of property required by the
agreement.
(12) The City shall provide on January 1 of each year, annual financial
reports and information showing how the impact fees that have been
collected were used as specified in this chapter during the previous fiscal
year and how impact fees are planned to be used during the current fiscal
year.
Section. 71-7. Review and revision.

least once every three years and the City shall revise this chapter as
necessary.

account for changes in the costs of construction and property acquisition.
Any adjustments shall be adopted by resolution of the City Council. Unless
otherwise directed by the City Council, any adjustments to the Impact Fee
Schedules shall be effective the first Monday in October of each calendar
year and shall be based on the Engineering News Record (ENR)
Construction Cost Index or such other indexes or computations
determined by the City Administrator to be suitable for use in the City to
reflect the costs of facility construction and land acquisition.

vehicle expires and if no construction has been commenced, then the
applicant or its successors may request, within three (3) months of permit
expiration, a refund of the impact fee paid as a condition for its issuance
without payment of interest.
(2) Any impact fee funds not expended or encumbered by the end of the
calendar quarter immediately following five (5) years from the date the
impact fee payment was collected, shall, upon application of the current
