During the 1st Reading the commission requested a comparison between our proposed fee for new residential construction and those of other surrounding jurisdictions.  We have provided this information per the Commissions request.  We also reached out to the Treasure Coast Builders Association, Realtors Association, and the Chamber of commerce, all of these organizations were in agreement with the proposed amendment.

OTHER INFORMATION:

We expect a 10% increase in revenue for the 2015/16 fiscal year. This will accommodate the rising cost of municipal providers and temporary services, which are necessary to further facilitate the rapidly increasing needs of the public.

The intent of this amendment is to reduce the amount of time required to process and issue permits. This will be accomplished by facilitating the permit process, plan review and inspection services.
