City of Placerville Traffic Impact Mitigation (TIM) Fee Program
The fees collected by the TIM Fee Program are used to fund transportation improvements needed to accommodate the growth expected by the City's General Plan. The projects included in the TIM Fee Program generally include new roadways, road widening projects, and intersection improvements. The TIM Fee Program is legally required to meet the requirements of California Government Code Sections 66000-66008.
The most recent City Of Placerville Traffic Impact Fee Study (prepared by Fehr and Peers, April 24, 1998) was adopted by the City Council on February 23, 1999 by Ordinance 1566. A link to that document can be found here: 1998 Nexus Study
In 2006, the City Council adopted Ordinance 1615 for Interim TIM Fees noting that the fees shall remain in effect until the comprehensive permanent traffic impact fee program is adopted. Staff Report
Only inflationary adjustments to the TIM Fees have occurred since that time.
