Impact fee as additional and supplemental requirement

The payment of impact fees imposed pursuant to this article is additional and supplemental, and not in substitution, any other requirements imposed by the city on the development of land or the issuance of building permits. It is intended to be consistent with and to further the objectives and policies of the comprehensive plan, the zoning ordinance, and to be coordinated with the city's capital improvement program, and other city policies, ordinances and resolutions by which the city seeks to ensure the provision of public facility improvements in conjunction with the development of land. In no event shall a property owner be required to pay impact fees for the same improvements in an amount in excess of the amount calculated pursuant to this article, provided, however, that a property owner may be required to provide or pay, pursuant to Miami-Dade County, state and/or city ordinances, policies or regulations, for public facility improvements in addition to payment of impact fees pursuant to this article. Nothing in this article shall be construed as a guarantee of adequate public facilities at the time of development of any particular property.
