Home My WebLink AboutMINUTES - 10301984 - 2.1 TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Contra FROM: Anthony A. Dehaesus Costa Director of Planning .. �J DATE: County October 16, 1984 I SUBJECT: ; Proposed Fee Increase for Planning Department SPECIFIC RIEQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION i RECOMMENDATION: Refer the proposed fee increase for services to the Finance Committee for review and recommendation. BACKGROUND: In earlier budget discussions, I had stated that I would request a fee increase for the planning services performed and as described on . the Planning Department's fee schedule. It has been approximately two years since the Board authorized the last fee increase which became effective in September, 1982. During fiscal year 1983- 84, fees supported 50-51% of the planning services rendered; the remaining cost of business, approximately $690,000 having been off set by the County General Fund. I am now proposing a fee increase of 8% on all applications/services described in our fee schedule except for those which impact primarily on the- individual homeowner or resident; i.e., variances for single family, lot line adjustments, appeals, etc. The exceptions are not being recommended for any change, nor are any new fees being recommended. Apart from the application fees, I am recommending that the present building permit process fee be adopted as $10 per permit or 10% of the building permit fee (Building Inspection Department fee), whichever is greater. The building permit fee of the Building Inspection Department is that amount which does not include any charge for construction plan checking and/or mechanical, electrical or insulation (energy conservation) permits. The Planning Department's building permit process fee reflects those costs for services related to (1) checking.,the compliance of the plan with the zoning and subdivision requirements and (2) the necessary field trips/checks during the construction phase prior to final approval for occupancy. I am also recommending that the surcharge on all applications heard.by the Orinda Area Planning Commission be decreased from 50% of application fee to 30% of the . fee. The mix of applications heard has changed sufficiently so that the cost of the Commission can be supported at the 30% level. i (Page 1 of 2) CONTINUED ON ATTACHMENT: YES SIGNATURE; r RECOMMENDATION OF COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR REC MME DA`TJON BOARD COMMITTEE _ APPROVE OTHER. i SIGNATURE(S) ACTION OFBOARD ON October 30, 1984 APPROVED AS RECOMMENDED x OTHER VOTE OF; SUPERVISORS X UNANIMOUS (ABSENT I, IV ) I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT THIS IS A TRUE AYES: NOES: AND CORRECT COPY OF AN ACTION TAKEN ABSENT: _ ABSTAIN: AND ENTERED ON THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS ON THE DATE SHOWN.
