The Jackson Town Council is considering implementing a system that would see builders pay additional fees on commercial developments that do not meet new energy efficiency measures.
The system is intended to encourage builders to implement new energy efficiency measures into the design and construction of their buildings, in lieu of paying the additional fees.
Energy efficiency measures would generate credits with the total number of credits used to determine if additional fees are due.
Proposed Fees for Residential are:
- $4/sf for every foot above 2,500sf;
- $8/sf for every foot above 5,000sf.
Proposed Fees for Commercial are:
- $4/sf for every foot above 10,000sf, for buildings up to a max. of 20,000sf;
- $8/sf for every foot above 20,000sf for buildings over 20,000sf plus a $10,000 flat fee.
