Nibley Transfer of Development Rights Program
Nibley City recently adopted a transfer of development rights ordinance to allow for more opportunities to preserve valuable open space. The ordinance was adopted as NCC 19.48. The ordinance includes the adoption of a Nibley City TDR Overlay Zoning Map.
MISSION: Our mission is to make life better for Nibley City residents
VISION: We envision a community where residents, businesses, and government work together to develop the City in harmony with its natural environment, historical surroundings, and in accordance with the General Plan.
VALUES: We value fiscally sound municipal services and a safe attractive, creative, and viable community.
Zoning on each parcel may change through approval by the City Council. A development may apply for a Cluster Subdivision, Open Space Subdivision or R-PUD overlay which allows for smaller lot sizes and/or increased density of the underlying zone.

Building and Impact Fees
Nibley City building permits and impact fee information can be found here.
building departmentImpact fees are one-time charges imposed by local governments to mitigate the impact new development has on local infrastructure. Residential and business growth requires the City to expand or enlarge our public facilities to maintain the level and quality of service we provide through our water, sewer, parks and road systems. New growth pays for that expansion and enlargement so that all residents can benefit from our facilities and services.
Nibley City charges impact fees upon issuance of a building permit for new residential, commercial or industrial construction. Impact fees are not charged for remodels, accessory buildings or additions, unless the addition is large enough to necessitate changing the size of the water meter.
The Property Rights Ombudsman for the State of Utah is an excellent resource for understanding impact fees. Information can be found at: http://propertyrights.utah.gov/impact-fees/
