I am Terry Kelly, president of Surety Construction and current president of the Collier Building Industry Association. The current Tindale-Oliver study of school impact fees is suggesting an increase from the current rate of $5,378 for a single-family home to $11 ,164. On behalf of the members of CBIA, we ask that you consider the impact this will have on the economic stability of our community in far reaching ways including the following: • The economic recovery is still fragile in Southwest Florida; in fact, current market data indicates a slowing of homebuilding activity, with a downward trend expected to follow in the near term. • Current new construction permit activity is on par with activity in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when the school impact fee was $1 ,778. It jumped to a high of $10,755 by 2009. Today's proposed fee of $11 ,164 is even higher, while our rate of new home permits is drastically lower. This creates an unsustainable scenario. • Due to limited available inventory, new home prices are rising significantly and steadily. Slowing of new construction will continue to force prices upward, driving many potential homebuyers out of the market. • Those affected most significantly by rising home prices are those who are considering homes in the lower to moderate prices ranges. These purchasers are often our teachers, first responders, hospitality staff and public service workers, who already can't keep up with rising costs. • Access to affordable housing is a primary consideration for businesses looking to relocate to Collier County. The proposed increase in school impact fees will wipe — out the potential for affordable housing in our county. 1144 On behalf of CBIA representing over 380 companies and 4000+ workers, we ask your consider of the following in determining the rate for school impact fees: 1) The average land value included in the most recent School Impact Fees study indicated a cost of $85,000. The reality is that new schools will be built to the east where land values are at $50,000. Not 85,000. It is also important to note that the School District currently has no new school construction in its plans for the next five years. 2) The study used a construction cost of $198 per square foot for new schools. In fact, this cost is significantly higher than the weighted average of other counties in the state which is $151 . to 181 . per square foot. Given these more realistic estimates, the calculation is $8,517 not $11 ,164. for a single-family home. CBIA would like to request your consideration in adopting an impact fee at $8517. with a three year phase in of equal amounts each year. CBIA would further request that commissioners review the proposed increment each year based on current market data and economic conditions, prior to implementing each phase of the increase. While we have serious concerns about the chilling effect of any impact fee increase in the current economic environment, we support these recommendations. CBIA asks your consideration for an increase in school impact fees to $8,517, phased in equally over three years pending an annual review of market conditions. Thank you for your service to our community and consideration of our request.
