Coverage & caveats

Pasco County, FL levies residential development fees through (1) a multimodal MOBILITY fee (transportation, formerly the road impact fee), (2) several IMPACT fees collected by the County (parks/recreation, library, fire combat & rescue, and school — the school fee is levied on behalf of the District School Board), and (3) WATER & WASTEWATER connection fees by Pasco County Utilities. All figures here are verified against official adopted ordinances / the County's own published rate schedule. MOBILITY FEE: The County is divided into three Assessment Districts — A=Urban, B=Suburban, C=Rural — each with its own schedule, and fees are tiered by single-family home size (0-1,500 sf; 1,501-2,499 sf; 2,500+ sf). The schedule charges the "Net Fee" (after county-funded incentives/subsidies). The 2025 Mobility Fee Schedule (PDD21-0499, Effective 1/1/2022, with annual columns through 2025) is the operative schedule; the County adopted an LDC amendment clarifying the 2025 schedules do NOT expire 12/31/2025, so they remain current in 2026. I selected the SUBURBAN (District B), 1,501-2,499 sf single-family detached row ($9,646 net) as the PRIMARY representative for a ~2,000 sf home; the Urban ($6,567) and Rural ($11,030) equivalents and the 2,500+ sf tiers are included as excludeFromTotal variants. A news source reports a 2026 single-family mobility fee of ~$11,660 which aligns with the Rural district tier. A separate $136.00 per-unit mobility ADMINISTRATION fee is charged on every residential building permit (additive; included). Multifamily apartments (LUC 220) and ADU (LUC 210.0P) rates are also district-specific; suburban primary, others excluded. SCHOOL IMPACT FEE (Ord. 24-37): tiered by date — for permits on/after 1/1/2026 (current): single-family detached $10,328; single-family attached $5,795.50; multi-family $5,636.50. Phases up annually to $12,328 SF detached by 1/1/2028. PARKS & RECREATION (Ord. 23-23): $3,450.15 per dwelling unit for permits submitted after 12/31/2023 (single flat per-DU rate; no SF/MF split in the post-2023 schedule). Same fee countywide; collected/spent by West/Central/East district. FIRE COMBAT & RESCUE (Ord. 25-28, 2024 Stantec study): two additive per-DU components for permits after 7/1/2025 — Fire Combat $416.00 + Rescue Service $258.00 = $674.00 per dwelling unit (flat per unit, same for SF and MF). LIBRARY IMPACT FEE: $144.58 per single-family dwelling, $96.58 per multi-family building (per recorded County ordinance / OR Book; medium confidence — figure taken from an authoritative government ordinance snippet, full PDF could not be re-opened due to expired signed URL). WATER & WASTEWATER CONNECTION FEES (Pasco County Utilities, official rates page): per single-family 1.0 ERU (5/8" and 3/4" meter), effective 10/1/2025-9/30/2026 (FY26): Water Connection Fee $1,719.00; Wastewater Connection Fee $3,250.00. A "Water with Reclaimed" connection fee of $1,290.00 is a mutually-exclusive alternative to the base water fee (excluded). Connection fees index 3.75% in FY26, then 4.75%/yr FY27-29. Non-residential pays the 1.0 ERU fee × meter-size multiplier (1.0 for 5/8"-3/4"; 2.5 for 1"; up to 80 for 8"). CATEGORIES THAT DO NOT EXIST in Pasco County for residential development: NO law-enforcement/police impact fee; NO drainage/stormwater impact fee; NO general/capital, open-space, or affordable-housing impact fee; NO standalone "transportation/road" impact fee separate from the mobility fee (the mobility fee replaced transportation concurrency). The six adopted impact/development fee programs are: School (2001), Mobility (2011, replacing the 2011-era road impact program), Water & Wastewater Service (1999, charged as connection fees), Parks & Recreation (2002), Library (2002), and Fire Combat & Rescue (2004). Mobile homes are exempt from parks fees in certain replacement cases. CAVEATS: (1) Mobility fee total depends heavily on which Assessment District the parcel is in — a builder must confirm the district; the per-unit fee ranges roughly $6,567 (Urban) to $11,030 (Rural) for a 1,501-2,499 sf home, plus $136 admin. (2) The official Mobility Fee page still links the 2022-adopted PDF; its 2025 column is current per the non-expiration amendment. (3) Library fee is medium confidence on the exact figure.

For a representative ~2,000 sf single-family detached home, a builder in the SUBURBAN mobility district would pay approximately: Mobility $9,646 + $136 admin + School $10,328 + Parks $3,450.15 + Fire $674 + Library $144.58 + Water connection $1,719 + Wastewater connection $3,250 = roughly $29,348 in county development/impact/connection fees (excluding the mutually-exclusive Urban/Rural mobility variants, the reclaimed-water alternative, and excluded size tiers). Urban-district homes pay ~$2,900 less in mobility; Rural-district homes pay ~$1,400 more. The mobility fee is the largest single category alongside the school fee.
