STAFF REPORT
Recommend City Council modify existing Ordinance No. 1023,
Section 15.04.020, Amendment to the California Building Code,
CBC Section 107.2 Permit Fees.

Proposed Modification to the Existing Municipal Ordinance No.
1023, Section 15.04.020, Amendment to the California Building
Code, CBC Section 107.2 Permit Fees.
Recommendation:
By Minute Motion waive further reading and pass Ordinance No. 1023
to second reading.
Discussion:
The fee structure for the Development Services Departments, including Building and
Safety, was reviewed by an outside consultant in early 2004. The result of the study
was submitted and approved by the City Council and became the enforceable fee
schedule for the Department. This fee schedule is set as the base and will be reviewed
and adjusted every two (2) years or as deemed necessary by the Building Official in
order to comply with California statutory requirements.
The current municipal code wording is outdated and requires a modification to reflect
the Department's current fee structure base system. The proposed modification is
intended to provide generic wording that will survive future fee studies and fee
adjustments.
