Per Education Code section 17620, the Hillsborough City School District is authorized to levy a fee for residential development projects that occur within the boundaries of the district.  For all new construction or additions that are over 500 square feet a fee of $2.45 per square foot will be collected.

Payment of School Impact/Developer Fees can be made in person or by mail. The Hillsborough City School District accepts checks or money orders only; at this time we are unable to process debit/credit cards.
