48 <br /> 2015-16 Manager Recommended Fee Schedule <br /> Footnotes <br /> (15) This proposed fee is to fine any worker for work or use being conducted without obtaining the proper permit other than the <br /> above listed fire protection permitting. <br /> (16) The public school system does not have a designation of fee enforcement on the approved 1996 fire inspection rates. I am <br /> proposing to include a category under the fee scale called Public Educational (biannual) and Orange County Facilities (annual) <br /> that currently includes Business, Storage, Foster Care, Residential and Private Educational facilities. The initial inspection <br /> charge is $185.00, reinspection $50.00 and a third inspection fee of $400.00. The fees for Orange County facilites would be <br /> exempt and only apply for re-inspections that result in recurring violations. <br /> (18) The current revenues collected from user fees do not cover the cost of operating the system <br /> (19) Allows citizens receiving public assistance to apply for an annual waiver to the pet tax for sterilized animals. Subject to <br /> written guidelines approved by the Animal Services Director <br /> (20) Reduction of the fee to adopt two or more cats during peak season (April - October). Applicable when first cat is adopted at <br /> full price; additional cats will be adopted at reduced fee. Offers incentive to adopt multiple cats at a time when shelter population <br /> is at its fullest. Any loss of adoption fees will be offset by increased number of positive outcomes and related reduction in the <br /> costs of housing cats for additional days, potentially lessens the number of animals that are euthanized. <br /> (21) Provides flexibility to set adoption fees during special events to offer incentive to adopt animals. Allows for greater degree <br /> of creativity and innovation to generate public interest and market events. Any loss of adoption fees will be offset by increased <br /> number of positive outcomes and related reduction in the costs of housing animals for additional days, potentially lessens the <br /> number of animals that are euthanized. <br /> (22) Establishes a boarding fee for an animal impounded as a result of a situation outside of the owner's control and not as a <br /> result of Animal Control violations. Subject to written guidelines approved by Animal Services Director. <br /> (23) Establishes a shelter redemption fee for an animal impounded as a result of a situation outside of the owner's control and <br /> not as a result of Animal Control violations. Subject to written guidelines approved by Animal Services Director. <br /> (24) Establishes a boarding fee for animals impounded as a result of a bite or rabies exposure when the animal must be <br /> euthanized by Animal Services at the end of the quarantine period. <br /> (25) To reach full cost recovery and decrease dependency on county general funds. <br /> (26) ADA Code Oral Health Evaluation for patient under 3 years and counseling with primary caregiver. Increase fee to the <br /> 70th percentile on which all other Dental Health Fees are based <br /> (27) New 2015 ADA Code - reapplication of sealant. Code not previously in existence <br /> (28) To be consistent with other services such as MNT and Primary Care. <br /> (29) Increase to Medicaid full reimbursable rate. <br /> (30) To fund the cost of recycling programs and a portion of the solid waste convenience centers. Replaces the old tiered fee <br /> Istructure previously levied in FY 2011/12. <br />
