Land use assumptions and infrastructure improvement plans were approved by the Town Council on September 19, 2017. Copies of the land use assumptions and infrastructure improvement plans for streets and parks can be found by clicking here. The water and water reclamation approved plans are available for download below as well as the impact fee study as approved by the Town Council on December 19, 2017.
Overview
Marana Water Department provides water and water reclamation service throughout the Town of Marana. In addition to Marana Water; Tucson Water, Cortaro-Marana Irrigation District "CMID", Pima County Water Reclamation and several other water providers service locations within the Town boundaries. The impact fee map is intended to provide information about fees collected by Marana Water for new or expanding service. It also indicates the “IGA” areas serviced by Tucson Water, but fees are collected by Marana. Should your property require water services from any other provider, additional fees will be assessed by those providers.
The impact fees are collected to offset the cost of new infrastructure and services when new development comes into the Town. These one-time charges are used to recover the costs necessary to provide the high level of service expected from Marana Water.
There are several benefit areas identified in the Impact Fee program. The fees collected in these areas are used only for projects in that area. You can use the map below to locate where your new connection is, and click to see the fees associated with that benefit area. There are numerous projects to upgrade and enhance the capacity of the department as these benefit areas grow over. These types of projects include:
- Up-sizing reservoirs and booster stations
- Building wells
- Creating interconnects to ensure proper fire protection

Types of Fees
Water Infrastructure Impact Fee
Intended to offset the capital investment requirements for new infrastructure to promote new growth.
Water Resources Development Fee
Intended to help the department in providing our systems with elevated gravity storage reservoirs. This will allow for better fire flow, positive pressures during times of power outages, and will increase our overall redundancy. This fee also applies to the management of our aquifers by the purchase of and use of CAP water and other alternative water supplies.
Meter Install Fee
The cost of installing a new meter assuming an existing water service line. The installation cost of a new water service line will be based on time and materials.
Wastewater Infrastructure Fee
Applies to all new meters connecting to the Marana sewer service area. Customers outside of the Marana sewer service area will need to contact Pima County Wastewater for questions on the fee schedule, (520) 724-9000.
