Public Facilities Land Equalization

“The purpose of this chapter is to establish and impose a specific plan infrastructure fee (SPIF fee) on new development within the Folsom plan area that equitably spreads the burden of public improvements and facilities and distributes the cost of public lands and community parkland to development projects within the Folsom plan area.”

“"Public facility lands" means those lands identified in the study within the Folsom plan area for dedication to the city for police substation, fire station, water and sewer improvements, municipal services and library uses, which dedications are included for financing in the study. Public facility lands do not include lands planned to be dedicated within the Folsom plan area for interchange improvements or parkland, which are addressed separately.”

“"Folsom plan area" means the property within the city of Folsom located south of Highway 50 within the approved specific plan.”

“after all public lands fee credits have been applied to the area covered by the small lot tentative map, the public lands fee shall thereafter be paid for each small lot final map as each map exceeds the parkland dedication credit, prior to the recordation of such small lot final subdivision map.”

City of Folsom, the agency that levies it

“City of Folsom / Community Development Department / 50 Natoma Street / Folsom, CA 95630 / 916-461-6200 … FOLSOM PLAN AREA DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES AND PERMIT FEES / Effective July 1, 2026”

“Portions of the Folsom plan area zoned for exempt public facilities are exempt from the SPIF fee unless and until such zoning is changed to private use. Once the SPIF fee is paid with respect to a residential development, the SPIF fee shall not thereafter be required to be paid in connection with the issuance of any building permit to remodel, reconstruct or expand any residential structure within such development that does not increase the number of dwelling units for such development upon which the SPIF fee was based.”

“Fee credits related to improvements or the dedication of public facility lands may be used against either the infrastructure fee component and/or the public lands fee component, but may not be applied against the parkland fee component or the administrative fee component.”

“The land value to be used for establishing the parkland fee component and the public lands fee component shall be initially established in accordance with the study methodology for such valuation at the time of the first dedication of any parkland or public facility lands. Until such first dedication occurs, the SPIF fee to be adopted by council resolution shall include placeholders for the parkland fee and public lands fee components.”
