CIAO Semi -Annual Report
March 2024
Introduction
This report was prepared by the City of Lubbock Engineering staff and adopted by the Capital
Improvements Advisory Committee for Roadway Impact Fees ("CIAC"). The purpose of this
report is to advise the City Council, in accordance with Chapter 395 of the Texas Local
Government Code of the status of the Impact Fee Program. This report should include
information with respect to the progress of the capital improvements plan (or capacity plan) and
any perceived inequities in implementing the plan or imposing the impact fee.
Program Overview and Status
On October 27, 2020, Lubbock City Council adopted the impact fee ordinance (Ord. #2020-
00136). Impact fees are charges assessed by local governments on new development projects in
order to partially fund roadway, wastewater, and water improvements that are necessitated by
new development. These funds are offset by City of Lubbock funds to build the infrastructure as
detailed in the capacity plans.
The effective date set for implementation of Roadway Impact Fees was June 1, 2021. On April
26, 2022, Lubbock City Council amended the impact fee ordinance (Ord. #2022-00068). This
ordinance approved the updated impact fee study dated December 2021 that added newly
annexed areas into the appropriate roadway service areas, updated the Roadway Service Area
map, and recalculated the maximum fees per service area as shown below:
