ORANGE COUNTY 058 BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT Meeting Date November 18, 1986 Actionllnda Item SUBJECT; PROPOSED AMENDMENTS - INSPECTION FEE SCHEDULE DEPARTMENT: PLANNING PUBLIC HEARING Yes X No Attachment(s) Information Contact: Marvin Collins Proposed Fee Schedule. Telephone Numbers Hillsborough - 732-8181 Durham - 688-7331 Mebane - 227-2031 Chapel Hill - 967-9251 PURPOSE: To consider for approval proposed amendments to the Inspection Fee Schedule. This item was first presented at public hearing on October 6, 1986, and concluded on November 3, 1986 . A motion to table failed as did a motion to approve with changes. NEED: On July 8, 1986, an updated schedule of fees for planning, erosion control and building inspection services was adopted by the Board of Commissioners. Since adoption of the schedule, it has become apparent that revisions are necessary to clarify certain fees and other "miscellaneous" schedules which were not foreseen earlier. IMPACT: The proposed amendments would clarify the application of fees to certain types of construction and plan review/approval procedures. In addition/ the provision regarding "Late Fees" would be incorporated again, and all schedules containing fees ending in $.50 would be rounded off to be consistent with the computerized permit system program. The proposed amendments would also add fees for various "mis- cellaneous" inspections such as the moving and demolition of buildings, commercial and campaign signs, swimming pools and radio/TV towers. Fees would also be established to provide for the reimbursement of Town of Chapel Hill Engineering Staff inspecting streets, storm drainage/ and water and sewer facilities constructed to Town standards. RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the proposed amendment to the Inspection Fee Schedule with the following changes.
