In that particular memo, I neglected to <br />include specifics on the impact fees harged by some of the metropolitan communities. As <br />you will recall, the memo indicated that four of the communities we contacted in the metro <br />area do have impact fees. We were able to recontact three of them and get the specifics on <br />those. The following table lists the osts in dollars per square foot charged by the Cities of <br />Burnsville, Lakeville, and Lino es. <br /> <br />Single Family <br />Multi-Family <br />Churches <br />Commercial/Industrial <br /> <br />Rllrn~viHe <br />$0.11 <br />0.15 <br />0.15 <br />0.17 <br /> <br />I .;! kevi11 e <br />$0.105 <br />0.116 <br /> <br />0.147 <br /> <br />Linn T ~ke~ <br />$0.10 <br /> <br />0.14 <br /> <br />As you can see from these three ommunities, a typical single family lot of 10,000 to <br />15,000 square feet would pay $1, to $1,500. On the other end, commercial/industrial <br />property would pay on the order f $6,000 to $7,500 per acre. These rates are roughly <br />1326 Energy Pork Drive ten times higher than those being c ntemplated by the City of Elk River. <br /> <br />St. Poul, MN 55108 <br />612-64.H389 <br /> <br />Fox: 612-644-9446 <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />9800 Shelord Porkway <br />Minneapolis, MN 55441 <br />612-546-0432 <br />Fox: 612-544-6398 <br /> <br />It is our understanding that these ommunities still require the developer to build lateral <br />facilities within ,the developments d the impact fees are used for trunk facilities and/or <br />any oversizing of the internal later facilities. <br />
