SCHOOL IMPACT (DEVELOPER) FEES

The purpose of the fees is to provide adequate school facilities for the students of MUSD. The fees are used to finance construction and reconstruction.
MUSD is currently collecting Level I fees. The Level I fees provide a statutorily designated level of fees that districts may assess if they are able to support them through a justification study. Level I fees are subject to an inflationary increase to be authorized by the State Allocation Board (SAB) in every even year. (Government Code Section 65995)
MUSD Developer Fees were approved by the MUSD Board of Education on March 12, 2024 and will go into effect on March 13, 2024. The next adjustment will be in 2026.
