System Development Charge update (Ordinance O-308-26)
Louisville
Summary
Louisville's road impact fee system — what developers pay to offset growth-driven road costs — would be updated under this ordinance. It would increase the contribution amounts and extend the fee's sunset date, meaning it stays in effect longer. The committee hasn't acted yet; it has until April 29, 2027.

Impact analysis
Developers would pay more under the revised System Development Charge, and the fee would remain in effect longer under the extended sunset.
Residents could see more growth costs covered by developer fees rather than general revenue.
Developers and builders would face higher fees, which could be passed along in housing and commercial costs.
