schedule Also see Miscellaneous Fees OfHKOIH ON THE WATER TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council FROM: Allen Davis Community Development Director DATE: December 5, 2013 RE: Approval of Building Inspector Late Permit Fees & Plumbing Fee Schedule BACKGROUND Staff and City Council reviewed the fees as part of the budget planning. The late permit fee is based on the penalty that is charged for projects that start without the proper permits, The plumbing code change reduces the number of commercial fixtures requiring a plumbing plan review from 16 to 10 fixtures. The fees generated have been incorporated into the City's 2014 Budget. There are other references to fees in the City Code that will be relocated to the Fee Schedule, adopted by resolution. ANALYSIS The late fee increase is based on the levels of non- compliance for the homeowners or contractors not pulling permits in the City. The current double permit fee does not adequately encourage compliance. Other communities in the Fox Valley already charge the triple permit fee. Staff hopes that the increase will encourage more compliance. The triple permit fee should take effect January 1, 2014. The Plumbing Code change relates to the number of fixtures in a commercial building that would trigger a plumbing plan submittal.and City staff's review and approval. Currently, 16 fixtures require a plumbing plan submittal, review and approval. It is proposed that 10 fixtures be the trigger for a plumbing plan review, review and approval. The advantages of lowering the fixture count are: • Evidence of Plumbing Code compliance is easier when plans are drawn and reviewed. Plumbers bidding on a project have a specific plan for plumbing rather than estimating or guessing. • Inspections in the field have the plumbing plans for comparison to actual construction, showing all connections, venting, and fixtures, existing and proposed. • The plumbing in the building is memorialized for future reference so that repairs or expansions are easier and the plumbing is not hidden behind walls. Due to the bidding nature and plan design, staff recommends that the new plumbing code change take effect March 1, 2014 so that plumbers and designers can factor in the plumbing plan review fee into 2014 projects. The other language changes in the code update relocate the fees from City Code and place it in the Fee Schedule, to be adopted. The relocated fees are not changing with this code update. FISCAL IMPACT The fees will generate about $39,500. RECOMMENDATION City Council approves the fee and code changes and waives the second reading so the Late Permit Fee can go into effect January 1, 2014. Approved, W zoo;� City Manager
