Ruby St., Suite 2, Ellensburg, WA 98926 <br />CDS@CO.KITTITAS.WA.US <br />Office (509) 962-7506 <br />Fax (509) 962-7682 <br /> <br />“Building Partnerships – Building Communities” <br /> <br />February 7, 2023 <br /> <br />To: Board of County Commissioners <br /> <br />From: Dan Carlson, AICP <br /> Community Development Services Director <br /> <br />RE: Proposed 2023 Community Development Services Fee Schedule Staff Report <br /> <br />Introduction <br />Staff has updated the Community Development Services (CDS) fee model with current department staff, <br />expenditures, and valuation data to determine the proposed CDS fees for 2023. These fees are divided <br />into three categories – Building Permit Fees for New Construction (Exhibit A & B), Fees for Building <br />Fixtures (Exhibit C), and Fees for Planning Services (Exhibit D). <br /> <br />Building Permit Fees for New Construction <br />Building permit fees for new construction would continue to be determined based upon a multiplier <br />(Exhibit A), a model enabling the user to determine how much service will cost for plans examination and <br />building inspection given total construction valuation for the project. This multiplier is based upon the <br />International Code Council (ICC) suggested model, and upon the most current published Building <br />Valuation Data table of the International Code Council Building Safety Journal (Exhibit B). This is a <br />national “average” construction cost per square foot for new construction. This fee model simplifies the <br />permit cost process and includes foundation work, structural and non-structural components, plumbing, <br />mechanical and interior finish. The ICC model allows CDS to adjust permit fees based on annual <br />construction activity and the desired level of service determined by the Board of County Commissione rs. <br /> <br />The multiplier works as follows: <br /> <br />• Projected gross construction valuation for the coming year is divided into the projected budget for <br />the coming year to create a multiplier. <br /> <br />• The multiplier is then used against the square foot cost of the construction project estimated by <br />using the most current August issue of the Building Safety Journal Building Valuation Data sheet <br />published by the International Code Council (Exhibit B). <br /> <br />• This produces a permit fee adequate to process the building permit. This cost includes all <br />plumbing and mechanical associated with new construction. <br /> <br />• A five percent (5%) technology and equipment surcharge is added to permit fees to cover the <br />cost of repair and replacement of vehicles and equipment needed to service the building permits. <br /> <br />Between September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2022, the average annual construction valuation within <br />Kittitas County was $190,691,601. Staff used this number for the projected gross construction valuation <br />for 2023. The anticipated building division budget after removing individual fee revenues is $1,293,146. <br />The $190,691,601 annual construction valuation is divided into the anticipated $1,293,146 budget, which <br />produces a multiplier of 0.0068. This multiplier is then applied to the construction project valuation to
