The city of Fulshear will begin collecting impact fees in October 2020. At its Oct. 15 meeting, Fulshear City Council adopted an ordinance to approve impact fees of $2,500 per service unit for water and $3,250 per service for wastewater.

At its July 16 meeting, Fulshear City Council approved amendments to six different agreements between the city of Fulshear and the Fort Bend County Municipal Utility District to pave the way for development to happen at a great pace. The previous agreement allowed the city to rebate higher amounts of money, but the rates are now set at these amounts. In the previous agreement, the city was required by the state to have one single wastewater rate throughout Fulshear. Because the downtown system requires more resources to operate, the city was required to have a higher water rate throughout the entire city. The new agreement will allow Fulshear to decrease the base rate on both the water and the wastewater by $7.50 each starting in October.
