Public Comment: Potential Transportation Development Fee (TDF) Increase
Council will hear from the public on the issue of increasing the current transportation development fee amounts, shown below, by 9.32%. The current fees have been in place since July 1, 2008.
The Town of Cary charges transportation development fees for properties developing within the Town or its extraterritorial jurisdiction. Transportation development fees are levied at the time of permit issuance in order to help address the costs associated with the transportation infrastructure needs of new development. These fees vary based on residential, multi-family and commercial development type and size.
For more details related to the Town’s transportation development fees, see section 7.11 of the Town of Cary’s Land Development Ordinance.
