Why a Mobility fee? • Funding shortfalls and issues with concurrency
• Based on roadway level of service (pm peak hour)• Available roadway capacity is free to new development• If no capacity available, development is stopped unless capacity
is provided – piecemeal mitigation• Encouraged sprawl

Florida Community Renewal Act of 2009
A mobility fee to replace transportation concurrency management systems
The mobility fee should: provide for mobility needs ensure development mitigates its impacts proportionately be fairly distributed among the governmental entities
that maintain the impacted “roadways” promote compact, mixed-use, and energy-efficient
development3

Approaches Considered
1. A road user fee paid by all roadway users and applied statewide
2. An impact fee sensitive to vehicle miles traveled3. A transportation utility fee assessed within an
established district based upon use of the utility

What is the Mobility Fee?
• A transportation system charge to recoup the proportionate cost of transportation demand generated by allnew development.• Multimodal • Sensitive to VMT (location and type of
development)• System-wide application• Intergovernmental coordination
5
Regional tierstate highways, arterial corridors, regional transit, regional multiuse trails, system-wide operational enhancements (i.e., signal coordination), intermodal connections
Local tiercollectors, local transit, bicycle and pedestrian facilities

Mobility Fee Needs a Mobility Plan
• Land use and transportation plans must be coordinated• Density and transit are linked
• Serve as cost basis for mobility fee• At minimum countywide
• Suggested: multi-county mobility plan• Cooperative agreements• Coordinated policies, incentives and project
priorities
6
Mobility fees are tied to land use and
transportation plans.

structure size or by # of bedrooms• Alternative:
• functional population – the effective population served over a day including those who live and work in the area
