Developer Fee Program Office (DFPO)
Overview
Government Code Section 65995 and California Education Code Section 17620 allow school districts to levy fees on residential and/or commercial/industrial projects within a school district's boundaries. The State Allocation Board (SAB) sets the per-square-foot Level 1 school impact fees every two years.
School impact fees, previously known as developer fees, within the Los Angeles Unified School District are collected by two offices: Los Angeles Unified School District (the District) and the City of Los Angeles Department of Building & Safety (LADBS). DFPO staff collects school impact fees on residential and commercial/industrial development projects that are within the District’s boundaries but outside the City of Los Angeles. The District entered into a contract with the City of Los Angeles to collect school impact fees from owners/developers as a condition of the issuance of a building permit for developments within the city of Los Angeles.
Hours of Collection
The Developer Fee Office is open for collections, by appointment, Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm, except when closed on District holidays. To schedule an appointment or inquire about availability, please contact the office.
Acceptable Form of Payment
Payment for school impact fees may be made by check (business or personal), cashier's check, or money order.
