Traffic Impact Fees (TrIFs) are used by the City for pay for transportation projects. The fee amount varies depending on the land use or combination of uses. For example, residential fees and commercial fees are not the same because they generate different amounts of traffic. This section is intended to assist the development community in understanding the City's TrIF program.

TrIFs are due prior to the issuance of a building permit and the amount is based on the fee schedule in effect at the time a complete building permit application is filed. The applicant must submit the following spreadsheet and any optional forms to the Permit Center with the building permit application in order for staff to calculate the final TrIF amount.
