HomeMy WebLinkAbout8A - 1995 MN Buildg. Code FeeAGENDA NUMBER: PREPARED BY: SUBJECT: DATE: 8A GARY STABERi BUILDING OFFICIAL PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO SECTION 4-1 OF THE PRIOR LAKE CITY CODE ADOPTING THE 1995 MINNESOTA STATE BUILDING CODE FEE SCHEDULE & APPENDICES MARCH 6, 1995 INTRODUCTION: Staff is requesting the City Council to adopt the new Minnesota State Building Code along with several optional chapters. The Minnesota State Building Code has been revised and updated to incorporate the newest available codes. For example, we are now using the 1988 Uniform Building Code as referenced with the present State Building Code. The new State Building Code adopts by reference the 1994 Uniform Building Code. BACKGROUND' Many people would classify this proposed amendment as simple housekeeping because existing codes now in effect are just being updated. Additional codes or new codes are not being considered as a part of this request.. However, the Council should be aware that a new fee schedule would be used in determining the Building Permit and Plan Review Fees only. The revised fee schedule is a part of the 1994 Uniform Building Code and will be used without modification by the vast majority of municipalities. The cities of Apple Valley and Shakopee are already using the revised fee schedule. Most municipalities will start using the revised fee schedule after the adoption process is completed. Below is a permit fee estimate for a single family dwelling with a valuation of $100,000.00 for comparison purposes. 16200 Eagle Creek Ave., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph.

The majority of fees (sewer and water connection fees) which constitute the majority of the total cost would remain unchanged. Fee schedule increases would apply only to the Building Permit and Plan Review Fees. ALTERNATIVES: The alternatives are as follows: 1.
