Placer County Municipal Code Art. 15.38 Development Impact Fees for Cemetery Districts

A. The board of supervisors finds that a cemetery impact fee is necessary to enable public cemetery districts to acquire and develop property for public cemetery purposes and to plan for future demand as a result of residential growth in the county.

B. Each new development project located within the boundaries of a public cemetery district within the unincorporated area of Placer County where the governing board of the district has adopted a capital improvement plan and a development impact fee, which plan and fee conform to the requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code Section 66000 et seq.) and which plan and fee have been approved by the board of supervisors, shall be subject to payment of the identified cemetery impact fee. In a development project subject to such a condition, a certificate issued by the cemetery district stating that the fee requirement of the district has been satisfied must be presented to the Placer County building department prior to issuance of a building permit, except where exempt by State law.

C. Each public cemetery district shall be responsible for preparation of its capital improvement plan, calculation and adoption of a fee that is in compliance with the requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act, and collection, accounting, and management of fees after collection.

D. For the purposes of this article, "new development project" means new residential development which requires the issuance of a permit or approval from the county of Placer, including, but not limited to, major and minor subdivision maps, conditional use permits, design review permits, and building permits for construction, or modification or reconstruction of structures, where such modification or reconstruction results in any increase in excess of 500 square feet of floor area.
