The Board on March 8, 1988 fixed this date and time to
consider the proposed Ordinance to increase fees -,for permits,
inspections, plan checking, map checking and other engineering
services performed by the Public Works Department.
Michael Walford, the Director of Public Works, reviewed the
proposed ordinance, the increase in costs to the Department, and the
need for increasing the fees for the above-mentioned services. He
called to the Board' s attention the fact that under the proposed
ordinance, the minor subdivisions would pay their proportionate share
of fees in the same manner as the major subdivisions.
The Chairman declared the hearing open.
Terry Curtola representing the Building Industry of Northern
California appeared and advised that the Public Works Director had
informed his organization and the building community about the
proposed increase in fees. He advised that the builders realize that
costs have increased and they must be passed along, but that some of
the builders have some questions, particularly with respect to the
inspection plan checking fee increase. He requested a delay in
adopting the ordinance to provide time for the builders to discuss
their concerns with the Public Works Director and his staff.
Good cause appearing therefore, IT IS BY THE BOARD ORDERED
