REQUEST:
The request is for City Council to review and approve the attached proposed changes for fees associated with the City's Building Department for the upcoming fiscal year.
DISCUSSION:
As Council is aware, the City's Consolidated Fee Schedule is reviewed annually. City Council approved fees associated with all of the other city departments at your meeting on September 23, 2021. The building department fees were extracted from the Consolidated Fee Schedule in order to allow staff to research further the changes required. Since that time, staff has prepared the attached fee schedule for Council's review and approval. Staff has evaluated the fees from other comparable communities and is proposing a 1% increase in fees based on current construction values.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that City Council approve the attached proposed changes for fees associated with the City's Building Department for the upcoming fiscal year as submitted. Once approved, the fees will be incorporated into the Consolidated Fee Schedule.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:
If approved, the amounts approved will be incorporated in the FY2021-2022 Operating Budget and will be utilized throughout the upcoming fiscal year. | | | |
