There are no geographically defined zones.
[Prior code § 13.06(B); amended by Ord. 216, 2002]
In accordance with Chapter 66.0617 of the Wis. State Statutes,
the Village does adopt the following standards for impact fees:
A. Shall bear a rational relationship to the need for new, expanded
or proved public facilities that are required to serve land development;
B. May not exceed the proportionate share of the capital costs that
are required to serve land development, as compared to existing uses
of land within the political subdivision;
C. Shall be based upon actual capital costs or reasonable estimates
of capital costs for new, expanded or improved public facilities;
D. Shall be reduced to compensate for other capital costs imposed by
the political subdivision with respect to land development to provide
or pay for public facilities, including special assessments, special
charges, land dedications or fees in lieu of land dedications under
Chapter 236, Wis. Stats., or any other items of value;
E. Shall be reduced to compensate for moneys received from the federal
or state government specifically to provide to pay for public facilities
for which the impact fees are imposed;
F. May not include amounts necessary to address existing deficiencies
in public facilities;
G. Shall be payable by the developer to the political subdivision, either
in full or install payments that are approved by the political subdivision,
before a building permit may be issued or other required approval
may be given by the political subdivision;
H. Water impact fees shall be determined upon a residential equivalent
(REU) basis with a single-family residence being a unit of one. The
number of REUs for all properties shall be assigned in accordance
with the schedule contained in Exhibit A, set out at the end of this
section.
I. In the case of expansion of an existing structure, the impact fees shall be based on the proportionate increase in use of the facilities. For water facilities this shall normally be determined by the relative increase in the number of REUs determined according to Subsection
H of this section and Exhibit A, set out at the end of this section. In cases where the Village Board determines that the increase in REUs is due to the addition of meters not needed for capacity purposes, but rather due to the convenience of the property owner, the board shall estimate the proportionate increase in use based on the best information available to it and shall recalculate the impact fee after two years of increased usage.

Based on the foregoing zones and standards, the water impact
fees is adopted in the following amount:
Public Water Facility Impact Fee of $1,300 per REU. This fee
is to be adjusted annually based on the actual cost of the improvements
or updated estimates thereof.
[Prior code § 13.06(D); amended by Ord. 216, 2002]
Impact fees shall become due and payable upon issuance of a
building permit or the issuance of other required Village permits.
[Prior code § 13.06(E); amended by Ord. 216, 2002]
No exemption or a reduction in the amount of the impact fee
shall be made on land development that provides for low-cost housing.
[Prior code § 13.06(F); amended by Ord. 216, 2002]
There is established an impact fee fund. Revenues from the fund
shall be placed in a segregated, interest bearing account and shall
be accounted for separately from all other funds of the Village. Revenues
from the fund, including impact fee revenues and interest earned on
impact fee revenues may be expended only for capital costs for which
the impact fees were imposed.
[Prior code § 13.06(G); amended by Ord. 216, 2002]
Impact fees that are imposed and collected by the Village but
not used within a reasonable time period after which they are collected,
shall be refunded to the current owner of property with respect to
which the impact fees were imposed. The Village determines that a
reasonable time period for improvements shall be considered as 20
years.
[Prior code § 13.06(H); amended by Ord. 216, 2002]
A developer upon whom an impact fee is imposed has the right
to contest the amount, collection or use of the impact fee to the
Village Board. The appeal process shall be as follows:
A. Any developer appealing the amount, collection or use of the impact
fee shall submit a letter to the Village Clerk describing the nature
of the appeal and providing supporting documentation.
B. The Clerk will present the appeal to the finance committee for recommendation
to the Village Board. The Clerk shall notify the developer of the
time and place of the finance committee meeting at which time the
developer shall be given the opportunity to present additional information
in support of the appeal.
