Development Cost Charges (DCCs)
Development Cost Charges (DCCs) apply to construction that creates additional residential units and/or commercial, industrial, or institutional floor area and are used to fund infrastructure and other capital works to support new growth and development. DCCs are payable at time of subdivision approval or Building Permit issuance as applicable and may include a credit for existing buildings on a property.
The City of Langley collects DCCs on behalf of several organizations. A portion of the DCCs collected are kept by the City to fund its own specific projects, with the rest are remitted to Metro Vancouver, School District 35, and TransLink according to their respective bylaws. The DCC breakdown by organization is laid out in the DCC Fee Schedule below.
