An issue that has landed on four different Manatee County administrators’ desks over the past four years has been decided: county impact fees are going up.

Impact fees are charged to developers to help pay for impacts construction projects have on roads, parks, libraries and emergency services. The county’s Land Development Code requires an updated study of the fees every five years.

The issue came before county commissioners in April and November 2023, and again this month at a land use meeting on Feb. 22.
