215 Church Avenue, Oshkosh, WI 54901 ON THE WATER
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Allen Davis, Community Development Director
DATE: October 18, 2012
SUBJECT: Ordinance to Repeal and Recreate Municipal Ordinances related to Building
Inspection Fees
BACKGROUND
The Community Development Department regularly reviews fees charged for development
services. As part of that review, the Building Services Division completed a survey of other
similar communities in Northeast Wisconsin and the building inspection fees they charge.
Based on that survey, the City's current fees set in 2006, are on the low and, and should be
increased to about the average fees charged in surrounding communities.
ANALYSIS
The proposed ordinance has two other major components - first it removes the fee schedules
from the building, plumbing, electrical and HVAC sections of the City Code and recreates a fee
schedule that can be updated with a resolution rather than by ordinance. Secondly, the fee
updates would not take effect until January 1, 2013 so that owners, bidders and contractors
would have time to account for the changes.
Chief Building Official Zarate has prepared the attached memo that compares the City's fees to
other City's fees for a range of residential and commercial projects, before and after the fee
update. The fee updates include an across the board increase for the base fee from $25 to $30
for all projects. The proposed building permit fee will now be based on building square foot,
rather than applicant reported project value.
The proposed fees would appear similar to 2006 fee schedule sample also attached. A new fee
schedule would be adopted by resolution at the November 13, 2012 City Council meeting after
the Ordinance changes are approved.
FISCAL IMPACT
The additional revenue generated by the proposed fees update would be about $75,000. The
additional revenue is reflected in the draft of the City's 2013 Budget.
Approved,

Tables 1 -6 will mare comparisons of the present fees and proposed fees to those fee structures
from Fond du Lac, Neenah and Appleton.
Building Permit Fee Increase Suggestions
Please refer to Table 1 for direct comparisons of the present and suggested valuation fees to those
of our neighboring cities for minimum fees. Tables 2 -6 provide comparison of the suggested
fees and neighboring fees to the present fee schedule for various types of projects. The changes
suggested are as follows:
1. Increase the base fee from $25 to $30.
2. Increase the $31$1,000 fee for each $1,000 after $20,000 in value to $3.501$1,000.
3. Add a $25 plan review fee for decks, detached garages /accessory structures and additions to these
structures.
4. Increase the 1 &2 Family Plan Review and Early Start Fees from $75 to $100.
5. Change project value based permit fee to square footage based for new projects or where floor
area is added or altered.
HVAC Permit Fee Suggestions
Please refer to Table 1 for direct comparisons of the present and suggested valuation fees to those
of our neighboring cities for minimum fees. Tables 2 -6 provide comparison of the suggested
fees and neighboring fees to the present fee schedule for various types of projects. The changes

I . Increase the base fee from $25 to $30.
2. Increase the $1.50 /$100 increment to $16/$1000 for values between $1,000 and $10,000.
(This equals a $1.00 increase per $1,000 value while making the fee schedule more user
friendly, easier to calculate.)
3. Change the $1.00/$100 increment to $10/$1,000 for values between $10,000 and $25,000.
(No increase, proposed fee is more user friendly, easier to calculate.)
4. Increase the $0.501$100 increment to $5/$1,000 for values over $25,000.
(No increase, proposed fee is more user friendly, easier to calculate.)
Electric Permit & License Fee Increase Suggestions
Please refer to Table I for direct comparisons of the present and suggested valuation fees to those
of our neighboring cities for minimum fees. Tables 2 -6 provide comparison of the suggested
fees and neighboring fees to the present fee schedule for various types of projects. The changes
suggested are as follows:
1. Increase the base fee from $25 to $30.
2. Increase the $7.00 /$100 increment to $8.001$100 for values between $500.01 and $1,000.
3. Increase the $3.00/$1,000 fee for each $1,000 after $20,000 in value to $3.501$1;000.
Plumbing Permit Fee Increase Suggestions

suggested are as follows:
1. Increase the base fee from $25 to $30.
2. Increase fixture fees from $7.00 per fixture to $9.00 per fixture.
PROJECTED REVENUE FROM SUGGESTED FEE INCREASES
Because some of the suggested increases are incremental and will affect each permit differently,
it is difficult to project the amount of increased revenue the City could anticipate from these
proposed increases. Additionally, the number of permits issued, the category of permits issued
and the value of the permits all have an effect on the revenues generated. The following is a
projection of the increased revenue the city may experience in 2013 based on 2011 permit
activity.
Mid way through 2012, the revenue generated was 17% above that of 2011 for the same
time period.
2
Base Fee Increases were projected based on 2011 Permit activity.
Incremental Increases are those increases charged per hundred or thousand dollars of value
(depending on the permit category.) These cannot be accurately projected without doing a permit
by permit analysis because differing valuations on each permit result in different fees. Projected
increases are provided where analogies can be drawn.
Square Footage Fee based world apply to all new, additions to and altered space of commercial
buildings based upon $0.181 square foot.
Projections are based on 2011 permit activity.
Building Permit Fee Increases
Base Fee Increase $5 increase per permit x 1800 estimated permits = $9000
Increment Increase $3.50 /$1,000 over $20,000 value ($.50 increase)
($51,106,914 / 1000) x.50= $25553
Square Footage Fee (Commercial buildings) $0.18/ sq. ft. Not estimated
$25 Plan Review Increase / Implementation
12 New 1&2 Family Homes
Estimated: 50 Decks, 40 Garages /Sheds, 125 Remodels
227 plan reviews x $25 = $5,675
HVAC Permit Fee Increases
Base Fee Increase $5 increase x 461 estimated permits = $2305
Increment Increase $.50 increase /$1,000 for $1,000 - $10,000 in value
($271306911000) x .50= $1357
Electric Permit Fee Increases
Base Fee Increase $5 increase per permit x 646 estimated permits — $3230
Increment Increase $11$100 increase for values $500 to $1,000
($2000001100) x 1.00 = $2000
Increment Increase $3.50/$1,000 over $20,000 value ($.50 increase)
($14,685,293 / 1000) x .50 = $7,343
Plumbing Permit Fee Increases
Base Fee Increase $5 increase per permit x 1347 estimated permits = $6735
Fixture & Lateral Fees Increases
-$2 Replacement Fixture, New or Relocated Fixture Increase
In 2011 there were 4507 fixtures involved in permits. $9014
- $25/Lateral Increase
In 2011 there were 174 permits issued for this scope of work. $4350
Projected Sum Increase over that collected in 2011 = $ 76562

Summary
This projection is based upon an analysis of permits issued in 2011. The actual increase in
revenue will be subject to the overall number and valuation of permits issued under the new fee
schedule.
If fee increases are pursued, it would be recommended that this information be shared with and
gain approval by the Advisory Committee prior to Council Action.
