Colleyville, Texas - City Development Fees

Fee Summary

Impact Fees

Source: City of Colleyville Land Development Code Chapter 13 - Impact Fees (Rev. 08/02/2022, effective August 2, 2022), adopted under Texas Local Government Code Chapter 395 and Article VI of the City Charter, with land use assumptions from the June 2022 Water, Wastewater, and Roadway Impact Fee Update. Colleyville operates its own municipal water and wastewater utility. Impact fees are due at building permit issuance (Section 13-160).

Water and Wastewater Impact Fees (Exhibit 13-G, collected at 50% of maximum assessable)

Roadway Impact Fees (Exhibit 13-H, collected at 100% of maximum)

Water and wastewater impact fees are capital-recovery fees keyed to the water meter size and service unit equivalent (SUE), collected at 50 percent of the maximum assessable; the combined total at a standard 5/8 by 3/4-inch meter (0.67 SUE) is $4,633. Roadway impact fees, collected at 100 percent of the maximum, are assessed per development unit by land use across two service areas; the schedule lists many additional land uses beyond those shown. That Colleyville levies roadway impact fees in addition to water and wastewater impact fees is a notable contrast with several peer DFW suburbs. These impact fees are distinct from the utility tap charges noted below.

Zoning and Plat Application Fees

Authority: City of Colleyville Community Development (Planning and Building). The fees above confirm the zoning and platting fee family for this jurisdiction. This schedule is dated "fees as of September 2017" on its face and remains the City's currently published Development Application Fees document; confirm current amounts directly with the City.

Coverage Notes - What This Page Does Not Cover

Per ZoneFee's Partial-Verified Publication Standard, the items below were either not itemized in full on this page or are levied outside the City fee schedule. They are disclosed here rather than estimated, paraphrased from a non-official source, or omitted silently. These items remain under limited-coverage review until any remaining gaps are closed from official sources.

Currency caveat

The impact fees on this page derive from the City of Colleyville Land Development Code Chapter 13 Impact Fees (effective August 2, 2022), and the zoning and plat application fees from the City Development Application Fees schedule (fees as of September 2017, currently published). Fee schedules change, and the City hosts these documents with numeric identifiers that can change when a new version is posted. Confirm current amounts directly with the City of Colleyville before relying on them.

Utility tap and meter fees

Colleyville runs its own municipal water and wastewater utility and taps exist: the City's Permit Fees schedule states that "impact fees and tap/meter charges are separate fees," and Land Development Code Section 13-130 references issuance of water and wastewater taps. However, the actual one-time water and wastewater tap and meter installation amounts are not published on any official Colleyville fee schedule located; they appear to be quoted per project through the City's self-service permit portal. Closed-search outcome: unavailable via published official sources. ZoneFee does not estimate an unpublished amount.

Special district fees

No city-administered special-district development fee (such as a Public Improvement District application or petition fee) appears in any published Colleyville fee schedule. Colleyville finances growth through its own Chapter 395 impact fees. Any overlapping districts, such as a tax increment reinvestment zone or county-level district, are levied by those entities, not through the City development fee schedule. Closed-search outcome: not administered by this jurisdiction.

Proffers

Cash proffers are a Virginia statutory instrument under Virginia Code Section 15.2-2303.4 with no Texas counterpart. Texas exactions run through Local Government Code Chapter 212 (subdivision and development) and Chapter 395 (impact fees); Colleyville's water, wastewater, and roadway impact fees sit under Chapter 395. Closed-search outcome: this fee family does not apply to this jurisdiction.
