City Road Fee - Collection and Application Policy
Purpose:
The City Road Fee is established to fund necessary roadway improvements within the
United City of Yorkville to ensure the roadway system throughout the City is maintained
at a high level of service. The City's Standard Specifications for Improvements require
new developments to "improve existing roadways running through, or adjacent to, the
development" to minimum standards based on the roadway classification necessary as
determined by existing traffic volumes and the additional traffic generated by the
development. There are situations when the City, in order to ensure a City -wide
transportation network with a high level of service, will desire to increase the roadway
classification to a higher classification than what is warranted only by existing traffic and
the estimated volume to be generated by the adjacent development. The Road Fee is used
to generate the necessary funding to enable the City to make such improvements and the
Road Fee Policy determines how this fee is to be collected and applied to improvements.
Collection Policy:
• The City Road Fee is required in all annexation agreements for property including
residential land uses;
• The Road Fee is to be assessed on a per dwelling unit basis;
• The Road Fee amount is to be determined annually by City Council based upon
the recommendation of the City Engineer. City Engineer's recommendation shall
be based upon current roadway construction costs and sound engineering
judgment;
• The timing of collecting the Road Fee is to be at time of building permit unless
otherwise negotiated within the annexation agreement.
Application Policy:
• The funds generated by the Road Fee are to be applied to roadway improvement
projects at the complete discretion of the City;
• In situations when funds are used to increase the scope of a road improvement
beyond the classification necessitated by current traffic and volumes generated by
a new development, the funds are only to be used for the difference in this scope.
