SUBJECT: COLLECTION OF FEES FOR SCHOOL DISTRICTS
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(.S) & BACKGROUND AND' JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
Acknowledge report from the County Administrator advising of theBuilding
Inspection Departments' efforts -and proposed .:procedures on" collecting
development fees on residential, c ,mmercial or industrial construction for
school districts ' assessments.
FINANCIAL IMPACT .
School districts will pay a $20:00 fee per application -to the Building
Inspection Department. .This will help offset some of the costs to install
a new fee computation program and the collection of development fees on
residential, commercial or- industrial ..construction for school districts '
assessments.
BACKGROUND
After January 1, 1987 , Section 53080 and. Chapter 4:9. of the Government Code
authorized school districts to be able to : impose fees . on residential and
commercial or industrial development for school construction up. .to $1 . 50
per square foot for residential construction .and $. 25 . cents. per square foot
for commercial or industri"al construction.
To satisfy the. enforcement provisions on these law.s. �the County cannot issue
a building permit until the Building Inspector receives certification from
the appropriate school district that "any development. ' fees 'imposed by a
school district has . been paid by the applicant and that, therefore, the
building permit can be issued.
In order for the Building .Inspectldh Department:to continue . collecting fees
as requested by. the school districts, a new fee computation .program for the
automated permit process must" be written. . . County staff is now in the midst
of writing this new program. " Once it is completed and implemented,
Building Inspection will be. able to .provide the .service . that the school
districts are requesting.
Until that time the procedure as discussed with Phillip White,
Superintendent of. . the ' Liberty. Union High School " District, 7will have the
schools collect the development . f.ees'. Evidence of payment will be provided
by the schools to Building -Inspection prior to permit issuance.
