New Development Fees Reduced in Rural Jackson County

Jackson County is lowering its Parks system development charges (SDCs) and keeping Roads SDCs level in FY 2011-12 which will save money for residents who are building new construction in unincorporated areas.

For the Jackson County Parks Department, SDC's will decrease by 24%, from $909.43 in FY 2010-11 to $692.21 in FY 2011-12, a difference of over $217 per single family dwelling. SDCs for the Roads Department will remain level at $3,283.37 per single family dwelling.

 "You don't see counties actually lowering development charges very often, so this is significant and represents a good opportunity for people to save a little money when building a new home," said John Vial, Jackson County Roads & Parks Director.

It's the third straight year that Parks SDCs have decreased; in FY 2009-10 the charges were $1,001.21 for a single family detached residence.

SDCs are charges assessed to new construction projects in Jackson County's unincorporated areas to help pay for County services in those areas. These SDC charges enable Jackson County to provide quality recreational facilities and roads for a typically growing population. Unincorporated areas in Jackson County include White City, Applegate, Ruch, Sams Valley and Trail, as well as several other smaller communities.
