The following listing is included in this Code as a ready guide for the user to determine whether the Code volume properly reflects the latest printing of each page. In the first column all page numbers are listed in sequence. The second column reflects the latest printing of the pages as they should appear in an up-to-date volume. The letters "OC" indicate the pages have not been reprinted in the Supplement Service and appear as published for the original Code. When a page has been reprinted or printed in the Supplement Service, this column reflects the identification number or Supplement Number printed on the bottom of the page. In addition to assisting existing holders of the Code, this list may be used in compiling an up-to-date copy from the original Code and subsequent Supplements.

If the county administrator determines that there is no comparable type of land use on the above fee schedule, then the county administrator shall determine the fee by: (1) Using traffic generation statistics contained in the latest edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers "Trip Generation: An Information Report," or trip genera- tion statistics supplied and certified by a registered state professional engineer; (2) Using for average trip length the average trip length of all average trip lengths for the applicable land use type as set out in this article (i.e., residential, office and financial, industrial, recreational, institutional, retail) that were used in calculating the above fee schedule; (3) Using as a percent new trips the average percent new trips for the applicable land use type (i.e., residential, office and financial, industrial, recreational, institutional, retail) that were used in calculating the above fee schedule; and (4) Applying the formula set forth in roads impact fee study. (d) The county administrator shall determine the applicable land use type. (e) In the case of a change of use, redevelopment, or modification of an existing use which requires the issuance of a building permit, electrical permit for recreational vehicle parks or mobile home parks or zoning compliance certificate, the impact fee shall be based upon the net increase in the impact fee for the new use as compared to the previous use. If, however, the previous use has been either abandoned or otherwise inactive for a period of two consecutive years prior to the request for the issuance of a building permit, electrical permit for recreational vehicle parks or mobile home parks or zoning compliance certificate, then the impact fee calculated shall be based upon the new use with an adjustment for any impact fees paid for the previous use. (Code 1982, § 1-17-29; Ord. No. 85-10, pt. A, 11-12-1985; Ord. No. 87-58, pt. A, 8-25-1987; Ord. No. 89-66, pt. A, 11-13-1989; Ord. No. 93-002, pt. A, 2-16-1993; Ord. No. 95-12, pt.

No. 2019-012, pt. A, 7-2-2019; Ord. No. 2022-009, § 3, 4-19-2022) Sec. 24-259. Payment of fee. (a) The feepayer shall pay the fee to the county administrator as a condition of issuance of a building permit or electrical permit for a recreational vehicle park or mobile home park. (b) In lieu of all or part of the roads impact fee, the county administrator may accept an alternative impact fee pursuant to section 24-6 or the board of county commissioners may accept the offer by a developer to construct, dedicate or acquire right-of-way for part of a road infrastructure improvement project shown in the county comprehensive plan or in the St. Lucie Transportation Planning Organization Long Range Transportation Plan (needs plan) or appropriate to the implementation thereof. Such construction must be in addition to any road improvements required pursuant to other ordinances. In addition, the construction, dedication or acquisition of right-of-way must only be for purposes as set out in section Supp. No. 28 CD24:115 § 24-259 ST. LUCIE COUNTY CODE 24-261. The developer shall submit a cost estimate certified by a registered Florida professional engineer and acceptable to the board of county commissioners or their designee, who shall credit the cost of the construction against the road impact fee otherwise due. The portion of the fee represented by the road construction shall be deemed paid when the construction is completed and accepted by the county, or state or other appropriate governmental entity acceptable to the county commission for maintenance or when adequate security for the completion of the construction has been provided pursuant to the requirements set forth in 24-264(e). (c) In the event the developer proposes to dedicate or acquire right-of-way, the provisions of section 24-260(6) shall apply. The portion of the fee represented by the right-of-way dedications or acquisitions shall be deemed paid only when the dedicated or acquired property is officially accepted by the county or other appropriate governmental entity. (d) If road impact fees are owed, no development permits of any type may be issued for the building or structure in question while the fee remains unpaid. The county administrator may authorize the initiation of any action as permitted by law or equity to collect the unpaid fees. (e) The roads impact fee shall be calculated according to the rate in effect at the time of payment, unless otherwise provided herein. (f) In the event the roads impact fee is not paid at or prior to the issuance of a building permit, the impact fee shall be collected prior to the issuance of certificate of occupancy or by any other method which is authorized by law, unless, otherwise exempted pursuant to this chapter. (g) The payment of the impact fees shall be in addition to all other fees, charges or assessments due for the issuance of a certificate of occupancy or building permit. (h) The obligation for payment of the impact fees shall run with the land. (Code 1982, § 1-17-30; Ord. No. 85-10, pt. A, 11-12-1985; Ord. No. 87-2, pt. A, 8-25-1987; Ord. No. 93-002, pt. A, 2-16-1993; Ord. No. 95-12, pt. A, 6-27-1995; Ord. No. 00-004, pt. A, 5-9-2000; Ord. No. 05-030, pt. J, 9-6-2005; Ord. No. 2019-012, pt. A, 7-2-2019; Ord. No. 2022-009, § 4, 4-19-2022; Ord. No. 24-036, § 1, 11-12-2024) Sec. 24-260. Alternative collection mechanism. In the event the road impact fees are not paid prior to the issuance of a building permit because of mistake or inadvertence or in the event a municipality has not agreed to assist in the collection of those road impact fees imposed within municipal boundaries, the county shall proceed to collect the road impact fees as follows: (1) The county shall serve, by certified mail, return receipt requested, an impact fee statement notice upon the feepayer at the address set forth in the application for a building permit, and the owner at the address appearing on the most recent records maintained by the property appraiser of the county. The county shall also attach a copy of the impact fee statement notice to the building permit posted at the site of the Supp. No. 28 CD24:116 IMPACT FEES § 24-260 land development activity if construction has commenced. Service of the impact fee statement notice shall be deemed notice that the impact fees are due and service shall be deemed effective on the date the return receipt indicates the notice was received by either the feepayer of the owner of the property, whichever occurs first. The impact fee statement notice shall contain the legal description of the property and shall advise the feepayer and owner as follows: a. The amount due and the general purpose for which the road impact fees were imposed. b. That a hearing before the board of county commissioners may be requested within 30 calendar days from the receipt of the impact fee statement notice, by making application at the office of the county administrator. C. That the road impact fees shall be delinquent if not paid and received by the county within 60 calendar days of the date the impact fee statement notice was received, excluding the date of receipt, or if a hearing is not scheduled and, upon becoming delinquent, shall be subject to the imposition of a delinquent fee and interest on the unpaid amount until paid. d. That in the event the road impact fees become delinquent a lien against the property for which the building permit was secured shall be recorded in the official records of the county. (2) The road impact fees shall be delinquent if, within 60 calendar days from the date of the receipt of the impact fee statement notice by either the feepayer or the owner or the date said notice was attached to the building permit, neither the road impact fees have been paid and received by the county nor a hearing requested. In the event a hearing is requested within the time period allowed, the road impact fees shall become delinquent if not paid within 30 calendar days from the date the board of county commissioners determined the amount of road impact fees due upon the conclusion of such hearing. Upon becoming delinquent, a delinquency fee equal to ten percent of the total road impact fees imposed shall be assessed. Such total road impact fees, plus the delinquency fee, shall bear interest at the statutory rate for final judgments calculated on a calendar day basis, until paid. (3) Should the road impact fees become delinquent, as set forth in this section, the county shall serve, by certified mail, return receipt requested, a notice of lien upon the delinquent feepayer at the address indicated in the application for a building permit and upon the owner of the property at the address appearing on the most recent records maintained by the property appraiser of the county. The notice of lien shall notify the delinquent feepayer and owner that due to their failure to pay the road impact fees, the county shall file a claim of lien with the clerk of the circuit court. (4) Upon mailing the notice of lien, the county attorney shall file a claim of lien with the clerk of the circuit court for recording in the official records of the county. The claim of lien shall contain the legal description of the property, the amount of the Supp. No. 28 CD24:117 § 24-260 ST. LUCIE COUNTY CODE delinquent impact fees and the date of their imposition. Once recorded, the claim of lien shall constitute a lien against the property described therein. The county attorney shall proceed expeditiously to collect, foreclose or otherwise enforce said lien. (5) After the expiration of one year from the date of recording the claim of lien, as provided herein, a suit may be filed to foreclose said lien. Such foreclosure proceedings shall be instituted, conducted and enforced in conformity with the procedures for the foreclosure of municipal special assessment liens, as set forth in F.S. §§ 173.04-173.12, which provisions are hereby incorporated herein in their entirety to the same extent as if such provisions were set forth herein verbatim. Attorney's fees and costs incurred by the county in the foreclosure proceedings shall be recoverable. (6) The liens for delinquent road impact fees imposed hereunder shall remain liens, coequal with the liens of all state, county, district and municipal taxes and superior in dignity to all other liens and claims, until paid. (7) The collection and enforcement procedures set forth in this section shall be cumulative with, supplemental to, and in addition to, any applicable procedures provided in any other ordinances or administrative regulations of the county or any other applicable law or administrative regulation of the state. Failure of the county to follow the procedure set forth in this section shall not constitute a waiver of its rights to proceed under any other applicable procedure. (8) In the event that the property for which the building permit is issued is located within a municipality that has not agreed to assist in the collection of the road impact fee, a feepayer that pays the road impact fee directly to the county prior to the receipt of an impact fee statement notice shall be entitled to a ten percent reduction in the amount of the road impact fee due. (9) In the event that the alternative collection mechanism contained herein is utilized by the county to collect the delinquent road impact fee and that collection procedure results in an inequitable burden as a result of the particular terms and provisions of the construction or loan contract of the feepayer, then such feepayer may petition the county administrator for relief. The county administrator may make such adjust- ments to the collection process to address such adverse impacts resulting from the use of the alternative collection procedure. The feepayer shall have a right of review of the decision of the county administrator to the board of county commissioners. (Code 1982, § 1-17-30.1; Ord. No. 05-030, pt. L, 9-6-2005) Sec. 24-261. Use of funds and road benefit districts. (a) There is hereby created five road impact fee benefit districts as shown below: Supp. No. 28 CD24:118 IMPACT FEES § 24-261 5t Lucie County { ROAD IMPACT EE ZONES Zip 1 4 --- _ Zone 1 e ,r i C I Zone 2 ZO'ne 3 J�i n � 5 one Z36-wn +z X PM sue, . , (b) Except for allowable administrative expenses, all funds collected from roads impact fees shall be used solely for the purpose of infrastructure improvements or enhancements to the roads system as identified in the county's comprehensive plan or by the FDOT. Roads impact fees shall not be used for maintenance or operation purposes. Such improvements shall be of the type as are made necessary by the new development. (c) Funds shall be encumbered and expended in the order in which they are collected. All roads impact fee funds shall be used exclusively for 1) identified road infrastructure projects within the road benefit zone from which the funds were collected; or 2) road infrastructure projects in adjacent road benefit zones which are of direct benefit to the road benefit district from which the funds were collected. Each road impact fee collected within the prior establish districts and not yet expended or encumbered shall be reallocated to the respective road benefit district established herein from which they were collected. (d) Each July the county administrator shall present to the board of county commission- ers a proposed capital improvement program for roads infrastructure on the road system of the county, assigning funds, including any accrued interest, from the several special revenue funds to specific road infrastructure projects and related expenses. Monies, including any Supp. No. 28 CD24:119 § 24-261 ST. LUCIE COUNTY CODE accrued interest, not assigned in any fiscal year shall be retained in the same special revenue funds until the next fiscal year except as provided by the refund provisions of this article. (Code 1982, § 1-17-31; Ord. No. 85-10, pt. A, 11-12-1985; Ord. No. 87-2, pt. A, 8-25-1987; Ord. No. 93-002, § 1, 2-16-1993; Ord. No. 95-038, pt. A, 9-19-1995; Ord. No. 98-021, pt. A, 10-20-1998; Ord.

No. 2022-009, § 5, 4-19-2022) Sec. 24-262. Refund of fees paid. (a) If a building or an electrical permit for a mobile home park or recreational vehicle park expires or is cancelled and no certificate of occupancy has been issued, then the feepayer, his heirs, successors or assigns, shall be entitled to a refund of the impact fee paid as a condition for its issuance, plus interest based on the local government surplus funds trust fund (Florida PRIME), except that the county or collecting government entity, if not the county, shall retain its administrative expenses. In order to receive a refund from impact fees paid on or after the effective date of the ordinance from which this article is derived, the request must be made within 90 days of the expiration of the building permit. Failure to timely apply for a refund of the impact fee shall waive any right to a refund. (1) The application for refund shall be filed with the county administrator and contain the following: a.

(3) A building permit that is subsequently issued on the same property that was the subject of a refund shall pay the impact fee as required by this chapter. (b) Any funds not expended or encumbered by the end of the calendar quarter immediately following ten years from the date the roads impact fee was paid shall, upon application of the feepayer, be returned to him with interest based on the local government surplus funds trust fund (Florida PRIME). Refunds shall be made only in accordance with the following procedure: (1) The then -current owner shall petition the county for the refund within 90 days following the end of the calendar quarter immediately following the tenth anniversary of the date of payment of the impact fee.

A copy of the dated receipt issued for payment of the impact fee or such other record as would evidence payment; and C. A certified copy of the latest recorded deed or a copy of the most recent ad valorem tax bill. (3) Within 90 days from the date of receipt of a petition for refund, the county administrator will advise the petitioner and the board of the status of the impact fee requested for refund, and if such impact fee has not been expended or encumbered within the applicable time period, then it shall be returned to the petitioner. For the purposes of this section, fees collected shall be deemed to be spent or encumbered on the basis of the first fee in shall be the first fee out.

The following shall be exempted wholly or in part from payment of the roads impact fee: (1) Alterations or expansion of an existing building where no additional units are created, the use is not changed, and where no additional vehicular trips will be produced over and above that produced by the existing use. (2) The construction of accessory buildings or structures which will not produce additional vehicular trips over and above that produced by the principal building or use of the land. (3) The replacement of a destroyed or partially destroyed building or structure in existence on or after February 1, 1986, with a new building or structure (a) of the same or a different use; provided that no additional trips will be produced over and above those produced by the original use of the land or (b) of the same or a different use producing additional trips but only for the original trips generated. (4) In those cases where a building permit or electrical permit for a recreational vehicle park or mobile home park was issued prior to February 1, 1986, but where the permit has since expired and more than 50 percent of the building construction was completed based on the last inspection. (5) Government property. Supp. No. 28 CD24:121 § 24-263 ST. LUCIE COUNTY CODE (6) Any claim of exemption must be made no later than the time of application for a building permit or electrical permit for a mobile home.

No. 2022-009, § 7, 4-19-2022) Sec. 24-264. Credits. (a) Scope. Any person who shall commence any traffic impact -generating land develop- ment activity may apply for a credit against the required road impact fee for any contribution, construction, or dedication of land made by such person or predecessor in interest and accepted and received by the county, state or federal agency for transportation infrastructure that are creditable pursuant to this section. Consistent with the standards of this section, an application may be made for credit for any contribution, construction or dedication made in the county as required by a development order issued by the county pursuant to its local development regulations or F.S. § 380.06, or any additional development condition imposed by the state land and water adjudicatory commission on a development of regional impact to the extent the contribution, payment, construction or dedication meets the same needs as the road impact fee. (b) General standards. (1) Any person desiring a road impact fee credit, who proposes to make any contribution, construction or dedication of transportation infrastructure that is identified in the county's comprehensive plan or in the St. Lucie Transportation Planning Organiza- tion Long Range Transportation Plan (needs plan), shall first obtain from the board of county commissioners an approval that the proposed contribution, construction or dedication is considered to be eligible for a road impact fee credit. Upon the determination by the board that the proposed contribution, construction or dedica- tion is eligible for a roads impact fee credit, the final amount of the credit shall be determined upon the submission of a request for roads impact free credit and the entering into of a formal roads impact fee credit agreement. (2) Prior to the issuance of any credits against the roads impact fee, the person who made the contribution, construction or dedication of transportation infrastructure shall enter into an impact fee credit agreement with the board of county commis- sioners. The following provisions are the general rules for the award of credit, supplemented as provided in this section and implemented by the administrative procedures: a. Credits applied against the roads impact fee for contributions, construction or dedications shall not be transferable as a credit against other impact fees imposed for purposes other than roads. b. Credits may be assigned to successors in interest provided the county receives a recorded copy of the written agreement signed by both the assignor and the assignee.

For the purposes of this section, the year of the assessed value that is to be used to determine the credit value shall be the year prior to the county's, or other unit of local governments, granting of a development order, including changes in zoning, changes in land use, or site plan approvals where such action results in the request for non -site related right-of-way. Credit for the dedication of right-of-way shall be provided when the property has been conveyed at no charge to, and accepted by, the county in a manner satisfactory to the board of county commissioners. If the feepayer shall opt not to have the right-of-way dedication credit determined as set out above, then the amount of credit shall be determined by the board of county commissioners based on an independent property appraisal, as described in section 24-267, prepared by an individual who is both a member of the appraisal institute (MAI) and a state certified general appraiser acceptable to the board of county commissioners, that is paid for by the feepayer. At the option of the board, the board may request a review appraisal, as described in section 24-268; provided that in the event the value established by the independent appraisal exceeds 120 percent of the assessed value by more than 25 percent, the board shall request a review appraisal. In the event the board determines to request a review appraisal and the determination of the value is the same or greater than value determined by the independent appraiser, then the county shall bear the cost of the review appraisal. If the determination of the value by the review appraiser is less than the value determined by the independent appraiser, then the feepayer shall pay for the cost of the review appraisal. Any independent or review appraisal submitted pursuant to this subsection shall be subject to review of methodology and technical accuracy at the discretion of the county administrator. b.

No right-of-way credit determination may include the consideration of any enhancement to the value of property dedicated as a result of the new or expanded roadway construction. (7) Application procedure. Applicants for credit for construction of non -site related road improvements shall submit documentation of the actual engineering and construc- tion costs to the county administrator or his designee. The county administrator or his designee shall determine credit for roadway construction based upon these costs or upon alternative engineering and construction cost estimates if the county administrator or his designee determines that such costs submitted are excessive or incomplete. Supp. No. 28 CD24:124 IMPACT FEES § 24-264 (8) Acquisition by purchase or condemnation. a.

Except as provided below, credits for right-of-way acquisition shall be based on the independent property appraisal, the review appraisal, or the purchase price, if lower, as determined by the county administrator. In the event the developer is unable to acquire the right-of-way for appraised value or lower, the board may: 1. Grant additional credits above the appraised value if it determines that the cost of acquisition is less than the cost of condemnation or that condemnation is not practical or desired; 2. Authorize the condemnation of the parcels; or 3. Deny the request for additional credits. (9) Time of claim; waiver. Except as provided in subsection 24-260(b)(4), any claim for credit must be made no later than the time of application for a building permit or for an electrical permit for a mobile home or recreational vehicle.

(d) The holder of any impact fee credits granted by the county shall be entitled to redeem such credits for the full benefit of the density or intensity represented by such credits as of the date of issuance, notwithstanding any subsequent increase in impact fee rates. The transferability of any impact fee credits granted by the county shall be in accordance with state law. (e) Security required for building permit issuance prior to construction of improvements. In the event a feepayer receives approval from the board of county commissioners for road impact fee credits for the construction of transportation infrastructure and the feepayer desires issuance of a building permit prior to construction of the transportation infrastructure, the feepayer is required to post a security for the costs of such construction. (1) Form of security. The feepayer must submit to the county administrator or designee, in an appropriate form approved by the county attorney, appropriate security which could include a cash bond, a surety performance bond or an automatically renewable, irrevocable letter of credit (hereinafter referred to as a security), in an amount equal to 115% of the full cost of the agreed -to improvements.

A letter of credit Supp. No. 28 CD24:125 § 24-264 ST. LUCIE COUNTY CODE must be automatically renewable unless notice of intent to cancel or not to renew is given to the county administrator or designee not later than 60 days prior to the renewal date. (2) Default. a. In the event (i) the county receives notification from the principal that the security will be canceled or notification of intent not to renew before all agreed -to improvements have been completed and accepted by the appropriate governmental entity with jurisdiction; or (ii) the county determines that terms of the agreement for the agreed -to improvements as set forth in the security agreement have not been complied with, the county, in accordance with the security agreement, will default the security, and collect the full amount of the security to be used for completion of the agreed -to improvements and other expenses. b. If the cost incurred by the county to complete the agreed -to improvements exceeds the amount received from the security, the county will provide notice to the feepayer. The feepayer must pay the difference within 10 days receipt of the notice. C. Any surplus from the security proceeds following completion of the agreed -to improvements will be returned to the fee payor, property owner, or surety as applicable. d. The rights and remedies set forth herein are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies available at law or equity. (3) Issuance of building permits. a. Upon posting with, and acceptance of such security by the county administrator or designee, the building official may issue building permits for that part of the proposed development determined by the county to be satisfied by the credit. b. In the event a feepayer receives approval from the board of county commission- ers for road impact fee credits for the construction of transportation infrastructure and the feepayer desires issuance of a building permit prior to construction of the transportation infrastructure and pays the required impact fees instead of posting a security for the costs of such construction pursuant to this subsection (e), the feepayer shall not be entitled to a cash refund for any impact fees paid and may assign and transfer the impact fee credits from one development or parcel to any other that is within the same impact fee zone or within an adjoining impact fee zone pursuant to s. 163.31801 (10), Fla. Stat. (2024). C. The county shall have the option to withhold a certificate of occupancy or temporary certificate of occupancy be issued until the required improvements have been completed and accepted by the applicable governmental entity with jurisdiction over the improvement or the impact fees have been paid. Supp. No. 28 CD24:126 IMPACT FEES § 24-265 (4) Release of security.
