Impact Fees
Trilogy Consulting develops impact fees for communities by assessing their future facility needs and determing the cost for public infrastructure needed to serve new development. Our detailed, thorough analysis gives our clients confidence that their impact fees are reasonable, fair and meet statutory requirements. The goal is to shield existing taxpayers and ratepayers from subsidizing new development while at the same time making sure that the impact fees bear a rational relationship to the costs of the infrastructure needed to serve new development.
Elected officials, planners, administrators and other clients gain added value from the wealth of planning and analysis for future facilities that goes into our impact fee studies, as well as the ongoing assistance we provide for managing impact fee revenues.
Services Offered
City of River Falls, Wisconsin - In 2014, Trilogy assisted the City of River Falls to update the fees they charge new connections to their sewer and water systems. The fees were established 10 years prior to the study and have been updated periodically as system capital plans and development projections have changed. A major goal of the study is to simplify how the fees are charged to property developers and streamline the process for calculating and tracking the fees.
