What Type of Project Are You Planning?

Impact Fees for Builders and Developers

Impact fees apply to qualifying new development within the Black Forest Fire Rescue Protection District. Before Pikes Peak Regional Building Department can issue the building permit, BFFR will review the submitted building plans, calculate the applicable fee using the finished above-grade livable square footage and the District’s adopted fee schedule, and issue an individual invoice. The impact fee must be paid in full before BFFR will provide its approval for the building permit.

What Builders and Contractors Need to Submit

• A copy of the building floor plans.
• The total above-grade livable space, stated in square feet.
• Plans should clearly identify all areas included in the total above-grade livable space.
• This form: BFFRPD_Impact_Fee_Form

How the Impact Fee Is Calculated

BFFRPD will review the submitted floor plans, verify the total above-grade livable space, calculate the applicable Impact Fee, and issue an invoice.

Permit Approval

The applicable Impact Fee must be paid in full before BFFRPD can provide approval for the permit. Impact Fee amounts are subject to change in accordance with the District’s current adopted fee schedule.
