SLC approves nearly triple increase in water impact fees

🚨 FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 1999: Salt Lake City has approved an increase in utility impact fees charged to developers.

The changes will nearly triple water impact fees and increase stormwater fees by more than five times by July 2028.

These one-time fees are charged to new developments to help fund infrastructure needed to support growth, including water and stormwater systems.

The decision marks the city’s first increase in these fees in 27 years.
