I <br />3 <br />PROPOSED ORDINANCE AMENDMENT <br />ORDINANCE: PLANNING FEE SCHEDULE <br />REFERENCE: ADMINISTRATIVE RE- APPROVAL (proposed) <br />SITE PLAN APPROVAL <br />ORIGIN OF AMENDMENT: x Staff Planning Board <br />'^ BOCC Public <br />Other: <br />STAFF PRIORITY RECOMMENDATION: x High Middle Low <br />Comment: <br />EXPECTED PUBLIC HEARING DATE: August 26, 1991 <br />PURPOSE OF AMENDMENT: <br />To establish fees for the re- approval of expired Preliminary <br />Plats and Site Plan Reviews. <br />IMPACTS /ISSUES: <br />Re-aRRroval of Preliminary Plats <br />Re- approval of expired Preliminary Plats is a newly proposed <br />procedure which was presented for public hearing on May 28, 1991. <br />The Planning Board recommended approval on June 27, 1991. Action <br />by the Board of Commissioners is tentatively scheduled for August <br />5, 1991. <br />At the public hearing the Board of Commissioners requested that <br />fees be established for the process which reflect the County's <br />cost for processing the application. <br />The recommended fee is $60.00. This is the same fee charged for <br />Minor subdivision Concept Plans. The amount of time involved in <br />the review process for both the Minor Subdivision Concept Plan <br />and re- approval of expired Preliminary Plats would be similar. <br />No additional fees would be needed for Final Plat approval. The <br />Final Plat fees would have already been paid at the time of <br />submittal of the original Preliminary Plat. <br />The number of anticipated reapprovals is 2 -3 per year resulting <br />in $120 to $180 in revenues. This estimate is based on the <br />frequency of inquiries. However, given that the procedure is <br />simplified there may be more requests for reapprovals. <br />Site Plans <br />The Zoning Ordinance was amended in 1989 to establish application <br />requirements and review and approval procedures for Site Plans. <br />No fees were established. <br />
