delivered the Opinion of the Court.
We review the opinion of the court of appeals in Wolf Ranch, LLC v. City of Colorado Springs, 207 P.3d 875, 877 (Colo.App.2008) (selected for official publication), to address whether the court of appeal's judgment was in error.1
We hold that the court of appeals' conclusion was correct but for different reasons than those relied upon by that court. The court of appeals determined that the drainage fee at issue did not trigger the Regulatory Impairment of Property Rights Act ("RI-PRA"), sections 29-20-201 to -205, C.R.S. (2009), because the amount of the fee was not determined on an individual or discretionary basis. We need not consider the merits of this interpretation, as we find that the drainage fee falls under the RIPRA's exception for "legislatively formulated [fees that are] imposed on a broad class of property owners." § 29-20-208(1), C.R.S. (2009). Therefore, we affirm the court of appeals' judgment with directions to remand to the district court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
I. Facts and Procedural History
This case arises from the City of Colorado Springs' decision to impose a drainage fee as a condition to land use approvals connected with the development of real property known as Wolf Ranch. Petitioner Wolf Ranch, LLC ("Wolf Ranch") contends that Respondent the City of Colorado Springs ("Colorado Springs") violated RIPRA when it denied Wolf Ranch's request to exempt its property from the fee.
Wolf Ranch's property is part of approximately 10,000 acres annexed into Colorado Springs in 1982. The annexed area includes portions of three distinct drainage basins: the Pine Creek, Kettle Creek, and Cottonwood Creek Basins. The 1,900 acres belonging to Wolf Ranch are located within, and *561comprise a substantial portion of, the Cottonwood Creek Basin.
The Cottonwood Creek Basin is one of approximately thirty major drainage basins within Colorado Springs. Local ordinances require that the Colorado Springs City Council ("City Council") estimate drainage costs for each drainage basin and apportion those costs among all developers within that basin by collecting a uniform drainage fee.2 A developer can offset its own drainage infrastructure costs against this fee.3
In 2005, Wolf Ranch applied to the City Drainage Board ("Drainage Board") for an exemption from the drainage fee set for the Cottonwood Creek Basin, then in the amount of $9,815 per acre.4 In support of its application, Wolf Ranch proposed to develop 1,600 acres of its property as a "closed basin." 5 Developers of closed basins are exempt from drainage fees and, therefore, are not entitled to offset credits for their own drainage infrastructure costs. Of the three drainage basing located within the area annexed in 1982, the Pine Creek and Kettle Creek Basins were closed and thus exempted from drainage fees.6
At hearings before the Drainage Board, Wolf Ranch argued that it was entitled to an exemption based on language in the 1982 annexation agreement.7 Wolf Ranch acknowledged that if it were allowed to develop its property as a closed basin, the drainage fees for other developers within the Cottonwood Creek Basin would increase by more than $5,000 per acre. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Drainage Board denied Wolf Ranch's request, finding the annexation agreement allowed Colorado Springs to impose the fees.8 Wolf Ranch appealed to the *562City Council. The City Council denied the appeal by a 4-8 vote.9 Wolf Ranch then petitioned for relief in district court.
Before the district court, Wolf Ranch argued for the first time that RIPRA applied because Colorado Springs determined, on an individual and discretionary basis, that Wolf Ranch was not exempt from paying drainage fees. See § 29-20-208(1). It further argued that Colorado Springs could not show that its fees satisfied RIPRA's rough proportionality requirement. See id.10
The district court agreed that Colorado Springs' decision triggered RIPRA because it imposed a condition upon the granting of a land-use permit and assessed the fee in an amount determined on an individual and discretionary basis. Id. The district court found that Colorado Springs had the discretion to grant or deny Wolf Ranch's request. In addition, the district court reasoned that the annexation agreement contemplated that fee decisions would vary across the 10,000 acres of annexed property; thus, the fees were individualized. Accordingly, the district court held that Colorado Springs ordinarily would have to show that the fee was "roughly proportional" to Wolf Ranch's drainage impact. § 29-20-204, C.R.S. (2009).
But the district court denied Wolf Ranch's petition without addressing the proportionality of the fee. Because Wolf Ranch had not raised its RIPRA challenge before either the Drainage Board or the City Council, the district court held that it could not present its challenge for the first time on "appeal." 11 However, in the event its decision was overturned, the district court outlined the standards and procedures that would govern a rough proportionality challenge to the drainage fee and noted its ability to hear additional evidence. See § (stating that, in a rough proportionality challenge brought under RIPRA, "the court may order the parties to provide such additional facts and information as the court may deem appropriate.").
Both sides appealed. Wolf Ranch argued that it adequately preserved the rough proportionality challenge and that Colorado Springs was required to justify its fee decision. On cross-appeal, Colorado Springs responded that the district court erred by characterizing its decision as the type that would trigger RIPRA.
The court of appeals affirmed the district court's decision, albeit on different grounds. It found that RIPRA was not triggered because the amount of the drainage fee was not determined on an individual or discere-tionary basis, as the same per-acre fee applied to every non-exempt developer within the Cottonwood Creek Basin.
II. Analysis
We turn now to the inquiry here presented: whether RIPRA12 prohibits Colorado *563Springs from conditioning further development of Wolf Ranch's property on payment of approximately six to nine million dollars in drainage fees. We hold that the drainage fee at issue is a "legislatively formulated [fee] that is imposed on a broad class of property owners." § 29-20-208(1). that Colorado Springs' decision to condition Wolf Ranch's land-use permit on the payment of drainage fees falls outside of RI-PRA's ambit. As such, we find
A. Standard of Review
Statutory interpretation is a question of law; therefore, our review of the court of appeals' judgment is de novo. People v. Valenzuela, 216 P.3d 588, 590 (Colo.2009). Our analysis begins with the plain language of the statute. Id. If the statute at issue is "clear and unambiguous on its face," then we need look no further. Id. However, if the statutory language is ambiguous, we will turn to "the statute's legislative history, the consequences of a given construction, and the overall goal of the statutory scheme" to ensure proper interpretation of the statute. Id.
B. Overview of RIPRA
In 1999, the Colorado General Assembly enacted RIPRA in order to "reinvigorate[ ] the federal constitutional prohibition against taking private property for public use without just compensation and the state constitutional prohibitions against taking or damaging private property for public or private use." § 29-20-201(1)(c); see also U.S. Const. amend. V; Colo. Const. art. II, § 15. Of course, it has long been our practice to en-foree these constitutional safeguards and prevent government entities from "forcing some people alone to bear public burdens which, in all fairness and justice, should be borne by the public as a whole." Armstrong v. United States, 364 U.S. 40, 49, 80 S.Ct. 1563, 4 L.Ed.2d 1554 (1960); Krupp v. Breckenridge Sanitation Dist., 19 P.3d 687, 695 (Colo.2001). Thus, we have held that RI-PRA's practical effect was to codify the test for regulatory takings announced by the United States Supreme Court in Nollan v. California Coastal Commission, 483 U.S. 825, 836-37, 107 S.Ct. 3141, 97 L.Ed.2d 677 (1987),13 and Dolan v. City of Tigard, 512 U.S. 374, 386-96, 114 S.Ct. 2309, 129 L.Ed.2d 304 (1994).14 See Krupp, 19 P.3d at 695.
The Court's now familiar opinions established the presumption that a local government that conditions approval of a proposed development on an exaction of property effects a compensable taking. Krupp, 19 P.3d at 695. This presumption can be overcome only if the local government proves that (1) there is an "essential nexus" between the dedication or payment and a legitimate government interest, and (2) the dedication or payment is "roughly proportional" both in nature and extent to the impact of the proposed use or development of such property. Id. (summarizing the Nollan/Dolan test). Consequently, under RIPRA, a local government that requires a land owner to "dedicate real property to the public, or pay money or provide services to a public entity in an amount that is determined on an individual and discretionary basis" must first satisfy each prong of the Nollan/Dolan test. See § 29-20-208(1).
C. Prior Holding in Krupp
We previously examined RIPRA in Krupp v. Breckenridge Sanitation District, 19 P.3d *564687, 695-97 (Colo.2001).15 In that case, we considered whether a local government authority, the Breckenridge Sanitation District ("the District"), effected an unconstitutional taking when it granted a building permit to a pair of Summit County developers on the condition that they first pay a water plant investment fee. Id. at 689. We held that neither the fee nor the District's method of collecting it was subject to the Nollan/Dolan test. Id.
The District instituted the water plant investment fee so that the cost of expanding the existing wastewater treatment facilities could be apportioned among the developers responsible for increasing the overall amount of wastewater produced. Id. at 690-91. The District's regular practice was to collect the fee before issuing a building permit. Id. at 691. The amount of the fee was calculated according to a standard fee schedule established by the legislature and made available to the public Id. at 690-91. Under the legislative scheme, property owners were charged a lower fee for year-round residences, including single-family homes and duplexes, and a higher fee for short-term rentals, including apartments and condominiums. Id. at 691. The legislature did not specifically assign triplexes to either category. Id.
The developers, Marshall and Renate Krupp ("the Krupps"), constructed a residential complex consisting of twenty-five units, themselves partitioned into three triplexes and eight duplexes. Id. Per usual, the District collected water plant investment fees from the Krupps when the building permit issued. Id. The District charged the Krupps the lower, residential rate for the eight duplexes. Id. Lacking an express legislative designation for triplexes, the District independently determined that the three triplexes were more likely to be used as short-term rentals and applied the higher rental rate. Id. Citing Nollan and Dolan, the Krupps argued that the District's decision to charge the higher rate for the triplexes constituted an unconstitutional taking. Id. at 691-92.
Our decision in Krupp examined the exception for legislatively formulated fees set forth in RIPRA. We determined that the exception was reasonable because legislatively formulated fees largely avoided the kind of regulatory pitfalls discussed in Nollan and Doion. First, legislatively formulated fees would "insure that administrative action will be rational and consistent, and that subsequent judicial review of the action, if necessary, will be available and effective." Krupp, 19 P.3d at 694. Second, the risk of "leveraging or extortion" was "virtually nonexistent in a fee system" because "a generally applicable, legislatively based development fee [provides that] all similarly situated landowners are subject to the same fee schedule, and a specific landowner cannot be singled out for extraordinary concessions as a condition of development." Id. at 696.
With this in mind, we held that the Dis-triect's water plant investment fee fell outside the narrow class of cases where the Nol-lan/Dolan test applied. Id. at 695 (defining the class as that where "a permitting authority, through a specific, discretionary adjudicative determination, conditions continued development on the exaction of private property for public use."). As further evidence that the fee did not constitute a discretionary adjudicative determination, we found that the fee was authorized by the General Assembly, was assessed according to a publicly promulgated fee schedule, and was applied to all new development governed by the District. Id. at 696. Therefore, "[Inleither the promulgation of the [fee] schedule, nor the calculation of the Krupps' [water plant investment feel by the assigned administrative official, constituted a discretionary adjudicative activity." Id.
D. Applying RIPRA
As we previously stated in Krupp, the basic provisions of RIPRA are subject to one categorical exception. "[RIPRA] shall not apply to any legislatively formulated assessment, fee, or charge that is imposed on a broad class of property owners by a local government." § 29-20-208(1). It is upon this *565statutory language that we now turn our focus.
The RIPRA exception for legislatively formulated fees, like its two-prong test, owes its inception to Nollan, Dolan, and related case law.16 The Dolan court found that the sort of land use regulations that have withstood constitutional challenge involved essentially legislative determinations classifying entire areas of a city, as opposed to the case before the Court which "made an adjudicative decision to condition petitioner's application for a building permit on an individual parcel." Dolan, 512 U.S. at 385, 114 S.Ct. 2309. Thus, in Krupp, we distinguished between "generally applicable, legislatively formulated fees and adjudicatively imposed development exactions." Krupp, 19 P.3d at 696. In this respect, Krupp is entirely consistent with the case law of other states' high courts 17 as well as our own precedent.18
Of course, the difficulty lies not in creating these categories but in determining where, exactly, generally applicable, legislatively formulated fees end and adjudicatively imposed development exactions begin. Wolf Ranch invites us to find that, because Colorado Springs "singled out" Wolf Ranch by denying its request for exemption, Colorado Springs should be precluded from claiming that the drainage fee falls under the exception. We decline this invitation.
Both characteristics of a legislatively formulated fee that we identified in Krupp are evident in Colorado Springs' drainage fee system. The record clearly shows that the drainage fee has been assessed in a rational and consistent manner. Following the initial annexation of the Cottonwood Creek Basin in 1982, Colorado Springs determined that each of the estimated twenty-one property owners in the Cottonwood Creek Basin would be subject to a drainage fee. Since that time, every developer in the Cottonwood Creek Basin has been assessed an identical drainage fee.
That subsequent judicial review was available and effective is equally apparent. As was true of the District in Krupp, Colorado Springs provided Wolf Ranch the opportunity to appear before an administrative body and contest the manner in which the fees were administered.19 Having found this decision unsatisfactory, Wolf Ranch, like the Krupps, availed itself of the state courts.20
Nor does the fact that Colorado Springs closed the Pine Creek and Kettle Creek Basins but refused to close the portion of Cottonwood Creek Basin owned by Wolf Ranch constitute an attempt by the city to single out Wolf Ranch for extraordinary concessions. The purpose of Colorado Springs' drainage fee system was (and remains) to share the cost of developing infrastructure for a particular drainage basin among the property owners located in that basin.21 The *566annexation agreement expressly incorporates the existing drainage fee system; 22 thus, the exemption provision of the agreement must be read in a manner that is consistent with the local ordinances establishing that system.23 Consequently, the appreciable "class" of property owners includes only those businesses and individuals who own property in the Cottonwood Creek Basin. Since the drainage fee was first instituted, Colorado Springs has, without exception, assessed a standard per-acre drainage fee against each property owner in the Cottonwood Creek Basin upon its application for a land-use permit. Thus, we find that Colorado Springs' decision to deny Wolf Ranch's request for an exemption was not an attempt to single out Wolf Ranch so that it must make extraordinary concessions as a condition of development.24
In Krupp, we held that the District's water plant investment fee fell outside the narrow class of cases "where a permitting authority, through a specific, discretionary adjudicative determination, conditions continued development on the exaction of private property for public use." Id. at 695. Because the facts here are largely analogous to those in Krupp, so too is our decision. Colorado Springs' drainage fee was authorized by the General Assembly,25 publicly promulgated on a per-acre basis,26 and equally applied to all new development in the Cottonwood Creek Basin. Therefore, neither the promulgation of the drainage fee nor Colorado Springs' decision to deny Wolf Ranch's request for exemption from the fee constituted a discretionary adjudicative activity subject to RIPRA. Id.
III. Conclusion
We hold that the drainage fee assessed to Wolf Ranch (and all owners of real property in the Cottonwood Creek Basin) by Colorado Springs falls under the exception for "legislatively formulated [fees that are] imposed on a broad class of property owners" under seetion 20-20-208(1). We therefore affirm the court of appeals' judgment with instructions to remand to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
Justice EID dissents, and Justice MARTINEZ joins in the dissent.. We granted certiorari on the following question:
Whether the court of appeals erred in ruling that the Regulatory Impairment of Property Rights Act, C.R.S. sections 29-20-201 to 205 is not applicable when a governmental body legislatively adopts a uniform fee, but then determines on an individual and discretionary basis whether or not to apply the fee to specific properties.
. The drainage fee is established by resolution of the City Council on an annual basis. Colorado Springs, Colo., Code § 7.7.902 (2001). The exact amount of the fee is determined "within each drainage basin by dividing the number of acres within the drainage basin into the total cost [of drainage-related improvements]." Id.
. See Colorado Springs, Colo., Code § 7.7.907 (2001) (enabling developers to offset drainage fees by the cost of drainage-related improvements).
. The total amount of fees assessed to the Wolf Ranch property is estimated to be $14,904,000. However, with offsets from the cost of on-site detention to be constructed by the developers, the net fee Wolf Ranch would have to pay to Colorado Springs is estimated to be between $6,000,000 and $9,000,000.
. Wolf Ranch does not own all of the Cottonwood Creek Basin in which its property is situated. Thus, its application is more accurately a request to close-and thus exempt from drainage fees-the portion of the basin it controls.
. Colorado Springs closed the Pine Creek and Kettle Creek Basins in 1988 and 2002 respectively. In its briefs, Colorado Springs argued that each closed basin is uniquely situated. Nearly all of the developable property located in the Pine Creek Basin belongs to a single property owner, negating the need for a drainage fee scheme whose sole purpose is to share the cost of developing drainage infrastructure for the basin among multiple property owners. Only a small portion of the Kettle Creek Basin is located inside Colorado Springs' city limits, preventing Colorado Springs from implementing a comprehensive drainage fee scheme for that basin. Finally, the decision to close the Pine Creek and Kettle Creek Basins was made before development in either basin began, while development of the Cottonwood Creek Basin and the corresponding drainage fee scheme began immediately after annexation.
. In pertinent part:
Drainage. Promptly after annexation, Briargate will prepare and submit to [Colorado Springs] an overall drainage concept for the Property. This will be a conceptual plan to determine whether drainage on the Property can be handled as an integrated basin without materially increasing historic off-site flows. If such an integrated basin approach is practicable, and [Colorado Springs] approves the overall drainage concept, then Owners, at their sole cost and expense and without any reimbursement, will provide drainage facilities in accordance with [Colorado SpringsJapproved drainage plans, and no portion of the Property will be subject to any [Colorado Springs] drainage fees. If such an integrated basin approach is not practicable for all or some of the Property, the property that an integrated basin approach cannot be applied to will be subject to [Colorado Springs'] drainage ordinances and policies.
Colorado Springs, Colo., Annexation Agreement § 5.6 (1982).
. The annexation agreement specifically provides that where, as here, "a [closed] basin approach is not practicable for all or some of the Property, the property that an integrated basin approach cannot be applied to will be subject to [Colorado Springs'] drainage ordinances and polices." § 5.6. In turn, the applicable ordinance grants the Drainage Board the authority to "administer *562the subdivision storm drainage funds." Colorado Springs, Colo., Code § 7.7.910(A).
. The drainage ordinance further provides that [dlecisions of the Board may be appealed to the City Council ... and may be modified or reversed by the City Council for matters occurring within the jurisdiction of the City ...." § 7.7.910(C).
. With respect to the rough proportionality requirement, Wolf Ranch stated that its plan called for the retention of drainage water on the property and that it would release water only at historic flow levels Thus, its development would arguably have no impact on drainage for the other parcels of property located within the Cottonwood Drainage Basin. Further, the assessed fee at issue is based on existing infrastructure built elsewhere in the Cottonwood Creek Basin, and the fee's sole purpose is to provide reimbursement for the cost of that infrastructure's construction. Wolf Ranch argued that, because its drainage will occur on-site, it is not benefited from the existing drainage infrastructure.
. Because it was being asked to review the decisions of the Drainage Board and City Council, the district court determined that Wolf Ranch's case before it was the equivalent of an appeal.
. In pertinent part:
In imposing conditions upon the granting of land-use approvals, no local government shall require an owner of private property to dedicate real property to the public, or pay money or provide services to a public entity in an amount that is determined on an individual and discretionary basis, unless there is an essential nexus between the dedication or payment and a legitimate local government interest, and the dedication or payment is roughly *563proportional both in nature and extent to the impact of the proposed use or development of such property. This section shall not apply to any legislatively formulated assessment, fee, or charge that is imposed on a broad class of property owners by a local government.
§ 29-20-203(1).
. Nollan considered whether a cognizable taking occurred when the California Coastal Commission demanded a lateral easement to the public beach directly behind a real property owner's small vacation home in exchange for a building permit enabling the owner to raze the original structure and replace it with a new two-story home.
. Dolan posed a similar question: whether the City of Tigard effected a taking when it granted a permit to a property owner to build a new hardware store and parking lot on the condition that the owner provide an easement over a portion of the property for public use as a greenway and bicycle path.
. The original dispute in Krupp arose before RIPRA was enacted in 1999. Therefore, while we examined RIPRA in our opinion, we did not specifically rely on it to reach our holding.
. See, eg., Penn Cent. Transp. Co. v. City of New York, 438 U.S. 104, 124, 98 S.Ct. 2646, 57 L.Ed.2d 631 (1978) ("A 'taking' may more readily be found when the interference with property can be characterized as a physical invasion by government ... than when interference arises from some public program adjusting the benefits and burdens of economic life to promote the common good.") (internal citations omitted).
. See, eg., Ehrlich v. City of Culver City, 12 Cal.4th 854, 50 Cal.Rptr.2d 242, 911 P.2d 429, 447 (1996) ("[It is not at all clear that the rationale ... of Nollan and Dolan applies to cases in which the exaction takes the form of a generally applicable development fee or assessment-cases in which the courts have deferred to legislative and political processes. ...").
. See, eg., City of Littleton v. State, 855 P.2d 448, 452 (Colo.1993); Zelinger v. City & County of Denver, 724 P.2d 1356, 1359 (Colo.1986).
. In Krupp, this hearing took place before the District's Board of Directors, a body empowered to grant or deny the Krupp's appeal. Here, Wolf Ranch had two opportunities to argue that its property should be considered a closed basin not subject to drainage fees-once before the Drainage Board and once before the City Council.
. The Krupps initially won review by the district court by challenging the District's assessment of water plant investment fees as an arbitrary or illegal administrative action under C.R.C.P. 106(a)(4). Although it has not done so here, Wolf Ranch also could have sought further judicial review under C.R.C.P. 106(a)(4). Thus, in Krupp as here, subsequent judicial review would have been available and effective even without recourse to RIPRA.
. Colorado Springs' drainage ordinance includes a statement of purpose:
The City Council further finds, determines and declares that it is necessary under all the attendant circumstances that the owner and developer of the subdivision shall provide the *566drainage facilities within his subdivision necessary for the drainage and control of surface water within his subdivision and also to provide the facilities required to convey such drainage waters to such outflow or discharge point as shall be indicated in the master drainage plan for the drainage basin and area within which the subdivision is located.
Colorado Springs, Colo., Code § 7.7.901(B) (emphasis added).
. Colorado Springs, Colo., Annexation Agreement § 5.6 (1982) ("the property ... will be subject to [Colorado Springs'] drainage ordinances and policies").
. While it is arguably unclear from the annexation agreement itself whether Colorado Springs may exempt property from drainage fees on a case-by-case or basin-by-basin basis, the language of the ordinances clearly favors the latter interpretation. See, eg., § 7.7.902 ("These studies [shall show all drainage facilities] required to provide for the drainage and stormwater quality », control of surface waters within the basins"; "[the estimated cost per acre of providing the facilities shall be determined within each drainage basin by dividing the number of acres within the drainage basin into the total cost as provided"; "Hlf it is in the best interest of the drainage basin ... a detention reservoir land fee may be established for that basin"; "the City Council shall establish by resolution the unit drainage fee and the unit detention reservoir land fee in each drainage basin to be effective January 1 of each year") (emphases added).
. Indeed, were Colorado Springs to exempt Wolf Ranch from the fees, the remaining property owners in the Cottonwood Creek Basin could arguably claim that such decision would effectively demand such an extraordinary concession from them.
