Business Services  >  Developer Fees

Government Code Section 65995 and California Education Code Section 17620 allow school districts to levy fees on residential and/or commercial/industrial projects within a school district's boundaries.  The State Allocation Board (SAB) sets the per-square-foot Level 1 school impact fees ("Developer Fees") every two (even) years at its January meeting.  

Per an agreement with Campbell Union High School District, Union Elementary School District collects 70% of the developer fees and Campbell Union High School District collects 30%, at their respective district offices.

Fees apply to all new construction and additions; with the exception of residential projects less than 500 square feet.
