# Development Cost Charges (DCC) Bylaw Update
#### The Village of Anmore is updating its Development Cost Charges (DCC) Bylaw to reflect current infrastructure costs, projected growth, and changes to provincial legislation.
This page provides information about the project, opportunities for public engagement, and project resources.
### What are Development Cost Charges?
**Development Cost Charges (DCCs)** are **one-time fees paid by developers** when new residential or commercial development occurs. These fees help fund eligible infrastructure needed to support growth, ensuring that development contributes to growth-related infrastructure costs rather than relying solely on existing taxpayers.
**DCC funds can only be used for eligible growth-related infrastructure, including:**
* Roads and transportation
* Water systems
* Stormwater and drainage
* Parks and park improvements
**DCCs cannot be used for day-to-day operations, routine maintenance, or infrastructure that serves only existing residents.**
### Why is the Village Updating the Bylaw?
Anmore's current DCC Bylaw has been in place since 2005.
Updating the bylaw will help ensure DCC rates:
* Reflect today's construction costs
* Support future infrastructure needs
* Align with current provincial legislation
* Help the Village plan responsibly for future growth
**Project documents and the project timeline are available in the Resources section.**

The Village is sharing details about the proposed Development Cost Charges (DCC) Bylaw update.
