Developer Driven Projects and Impact Fees
Learn about the 2023 Impact Fee Study and the process used to determine the updates.
Developer driven projects involve platting and/or improvements to water and wastewater infrastructure or new connections to existing infrastructure within the boundary of NBU’s Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN), proposed by a developer or owner of a property.
Impact Fee Policy, effective December 2022.
This Policy establishes a comprehensive system, consistent with state law and the ordinances of the City of New Braunfels, to assure that the costs of capital improvements and facility expansions made by NBU on account of new development are fairly distributed between the owner of the new development and the ratepayers. The City has passed and adopted the Water and Wastewater Capital Recovery Fees Ordinance and subsequent amendments; thereto, authorizing the collection of water and wastewater capital recovery fees and directing NBU to establish a policy with respect to implementation of the Ordinance.
