exactions; individualized determinations; appeal

This bill requires Arizona municipalities and counties to provide developers with a written explanation for any fee or condition (called an "exaction") imposed on a proposed development project before it can be charged. Developers can request a detailed, individualized analysis showing how the fee matches the project's specific impacts within 60 days, or the fee is automatically waived if not provided on time. If developers believe a fee is excessive, they can appeal to the Attorney General or sue in court, where local governments must prove the fee is proportional to the project's impact. Developers may also pay fees while appealing without losing their right to challenge them later.
