Developer fees are also known as School Impact Fees or School Facility Fees. In September, 1986, Assembly Bill 2926 (Chapter 887/Statutes 1986) was signed into law, granting school district governing boards with the authority to impose developer fees. This authority is codified in Education Code Section 17620 which states in part "...the governing board of any school district is authorized to levy a fee, charge, dedication or other form of requirement against any development project for the construction or modernization of school facilities."
MCUSD's current fee schedule is as follows (effective January 15, 2013):
Residential - $3.20 per square foot
Commercial - $ .51 per square foot
Mini-storage - $.08 per square foot
