The current fees do not cover the costs of providing the service. The expense <br />budget does not include all of the costs (i.e. only Building & Inspection staff costs <br />are included, building occupancy costs are not included, Board and Commission <br />costs are not included, etc.). <br />2. Revenue for 03-04 is actual, 04-05 is estimated, and 05-06 is projected based on <br />current fees. <br />3. The additional revenue from the proposed fees that would be allocated to the <br />Building and Inspection costs is $45,000 ($25,000 of the stormwater protection <br />inspection fee and $20,000 for the adjustments to the current fee table). The other <br />$150,000 would be allocated to cover costs of other departments. <br />4. The average FTE salary and benefit cost is assumed to be $100,000. <br />5. The plan review FTE is based upon a review of the previous year's records. We <br />estimate that this level of effort will most likely increase as construction activity <br />increases. The revenue from the proposed fee is for Planning, Engineering, and <br />Fire employees; these employees are not included in the Building & Inspection <br />budget. <br />6. The stormwater protection inspection FTE is based upon a review of the previous <br />year's records. We estimate that this level of effort will most likely increase as the <br />stormwater permit requirements become more restrictive and complex for more <br />projects. The revenue from the proposed fee is for Building and Engineering <br />employees. The Engineering employees are not included in the Building & <br />Inspection budget. <br />
