§ 47-77. Legislative findings applicable to fire protection impact fees.  


Latest version.
  • The Board of County Commissioners of Levy County, Florida, hereby finds, determines and declares that:

    (a)

    The county fire protection system benefits all residents of the unincorporated area of county and the incorporated area of the Town of Yankeetown, which is served by the county's fire protection system; therefore, the fire protection impact fee, if any, shall be imposed throughout the unincorporated area of the county and within the boundaries of the Town of Yankeetown for so long as the County is providing fire protection services within the Town of Yankeetown.

    (b)

    Development necessitated by growth contemplated in the comprehensive plan and the fire protection impact fee study will require improvements and additions to the county fire protection system to accommodate the new development generated by such growth and maintain the standards of service provided by the fire protection system; however, at this time, the board has determined to not impose a fire protection impact fee on new growth.
