Approve a permit fee waiver request from Palominas Fire District in the amount of $120 for the installation of a 1,220 square foot manufactured home for crew quarters; the applicant is also requesting that any fees associated for additional permits to convert the unit to a non-residential use also be waived for this parcel located at 9903 S Palominas Road in Hereford.

Mark Matthews, Fire Chief of Palominas Fire District, a Special District, has requested permit fees be waived for the installation of a 1,220 square foot manufactured home for crew quarters.  The applicant is also requesting that any fees associated for additional permit fees to convert the unit to a non-residential use also be waived for this parcel.  The site is located at 9903 S Palominas Road in Hereford.  Please note, the permit for the installation of the 1,220 square foot manufacture home was issued on June 5, 2015 with a condition that if the fee waiver is not approved the applicant will be required to pay the full amount of $120 plus any fees associated for additional permits to convert the unit to a non-residential use.   Resolution 13-05 allows department directors to waive fees in certain instances, but does not include waiving $120 for the installation permit of the manufactured home or any fees associated for additional permits to convert the unit to a non-residential use.  Hence, this fee waiver request is submitted to the Board of Supervisors for a determination. 

The Community Development Department would not charge Palominas Fire District the $120 for the installation permit fee for the manufactured home or any additional associated fees for converting the unit to a non-residential use.

Palominas Fire District would be required to pay $120 for the installation permit fee for the manufactured house and any additional associated fees for converting the unit to a non-residential use.

None.
