SAWS Impact Fees Being Discussed at City Council

You may have heard recently about discussions of impact fees at council. What are they, and how do they affect you? Here is the scoop to give you a better understanding.   Impact fees are one-time fees charged to builders by San Antonio Water System when a builder or developer is connecting new businesses or residential developments to the city’s water and wastewater system. The impact fees charged to the builder pay for the costs of expanding the system to serve the future customers that will live or work in the new developments. Impact fees are not charged to existing SAWS customers.   Impact fees are reviewed every five years. They are based on the cost of providing service to the future customers, and the distance of the building or business from the central infrastructure. Generally, impact fees are higher in the far northwest portion of the city, and lowest in the central and southern portions.   After a citizens’ committee review of proposed new impact fees, SAWS Board of Trustees approved the new fees in April, and City Council is currently considering them and is scheduled to vote in May.   For more information, please visit saws.org/ImpactFees .

The San Antonio Planning Department is asking for community input on draft goals and focus areas for the NE Loop 410 and I-35 Regional Center Plan. The purpose of the Regional Center Plan is to help guide long-range land use and community investment decisions as the City grows over the next twenty years. The Plan addresses the topics of what we build, how we get around, housing options, parks and open space, and where we “live, work, and play.”   Please tell us what you and your neighbors see for the future of the NE Loop 410 and I-35 area by taking their questionnaire: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NE410-35 .
