(c) The schedule of impact fees shall include recommended fee levels for development in environmentally sensitive developing areas, secondary developing areas, and rural areas. The schedule of impact fees shall not recommend impact fees for communities or developing areas.

(d) The schedule of impact fees developed by the Advisory Council shall be submitted to the Joint Bond Bill Committee of the General Assembly on or before May 1, 2002. The schedule of impact fees shall be accepted, rejected or modified by the Joint Bond Bill Committee and thereafter approved by the General Assembly by appropriate legislation.

(e) Impact fees developed pursuant to this section shall not exceed the proportionate share of the cost of system improvements, as defined in this subchapter.
