DCC Bylaw Update

The City of White Rock is updating its Development Cost Charges (DCCs) bylaw to better support growth and infrastructure needs.

What are DCCs

DCCs are fees collected from land developers, on a user pay basis, to help fund the costs of new infrastructure needed to support growth. DCCs help ensure developers pay their fair share of the costs required to develop new infrastructure and park improvements.

What do DCCs pay for?

Development Cost Charges pay for:

  • Transportation Infrastructure
  • Water infrastructure
  • Sanitary Sewer Infrastructure
  • Drainage Infrastructure
  • Police Infrastructure
