Developer Fee Services

Developer Fees for residential and commercial construction are collected by the Shasta County Office of Education (SCOE) on behalf of the school districts of Shasta County. 

The fees collected are used for construction and reconstruction of school facilities and may be used to pay bonds, notes, loans, leases or other installment agreements for temporary and permanent facilities.

As of January 2008, the maximum fee that can be levied is $2.97 per square foot for residential and $0.47 per square foot for commercial/industrial construction. The maximum fee is adjusted every two years according to the inflation rate listed by the state-wide index for Class B construction set by the State Allocation Board.

The city or county building department will present SCOE a School Clearance Form which serves as notification of the square footage on the permit request. Fees are calculated by multiplying the square footage by the Districts current rate per square foot.  Upon receipt of payment, the developer will receive a School Impact Fees Transmittal Form to present at the building department for their building permit. 

Location for Payment of Developer Fees - The Shasta County Office of Education is located at 1644 Magnolia Avenue (Room 18) Redding CA, 96001.

Developer Fee hours - Monday through Friday 8:00 am to 4:00 pm. We are closed for lunch from 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm. We are closed major holidays.
