adequate fees to cover the cost of services provided to process a land use or

WHEREAS, In 2015, the consultant monitored activities of personnel when processing the
permits and made a determination of the actual cost for providing the service to
process land use and building permits; and
WHEREAS, The consultant developed a fee model for Planning Services and Building Fixture
permits that calculated the amount of direct and indirect costs associated with
each development activity; and
WHEREAS, The consultant also developed a fee multiplier model for new construction
designed to determine a construction fee which could be adjusted based upon
the amount of new construction activity occurring in a single year; and
WHERAS, The Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolution 2015-151, 2017-063,
and 2018-037 requiring that fees charged by Community Development Services

County Commissioners at the public hearing based on the consultant’s fee
models for full cost recovery to provide the building and land use services; and
WHEREAS, At the February 19 2019 public hearing, testimony regarding the proposed fees
was received and considered by the Board of County Commissioners; and
WHEREAS, Said testimony included a request from the Kittitas County Conservation District
that the County waive review fees for fish habitat projects developed and
implemented through the Voluntary Stewardship Program (VSP); and
