UGM Police Facilities Impact Fee

“New development in the City will increase the service population and, therefore, the need for new police capital improvements to adequately serve the new residents and employees. The purpose of the Police Fee Program updated through this 2022 Nexus Study is to fund the new police facilities, vehicles, and equipment necessary to serve new residential and nonresidential development in the City.”

“Police Fee revenue will be used to construct new development's proportionate share of police buildings (including acquiring the land), as well as to acquire police vehicles and equipment necessitated by new development. It also will be used to plan for and design police facilities and fund the studies and administration needed to support the Police Fee Program.”

“Once the updated Police Fee Program takes effect, the updated Police Fees will be collected from all new residential and nonresidential development within the boundary of the City prior to building permit issuance. The Police Fees will be charged per dwelling unit and commercial building square foot.”
