BUILDING COMMISSIONER Dear Members of the Common Council: Attached is a proposed ordinance to update our fees. CHARLES C. BULOT Asst. Zoning Administrator This ordinance is to keep us in compliance with Ordinance No. 8412-93, subsection 1, which established the Consolidated Building Department as an enterprise fund. It is our responsibility to monitor fees in order to assure that we continue to be self-supporting. In an effort to keep the Department running with a cash reserve, we have left four (4) positions vacate over the past year. We still feel it is necessary to increase the fees due to rising costs, such as postage from 37¢ to 41¢, gas from $1.20 to $2.90 a gallon, and total increase in benefits of $67,500, since the 2004 fee increase. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, (• Donald F. Fozo, C.B.O.
