At a ` meeGng held on November 27, 199$� the Board of Management recommended thet the foUowing user fees ba either increased or imposed: SERVICE QR PEdlMIT - PRESEN'4 PROPOSED 1998 1999 , It is hoped that thesa new fees can be imposed as of January l, 1999 for budgeting purposes. Council wili be seeing other fce increasea when they consider the 1999 Opereting Budget, however, these fees will not teka efCcet on Jenuary 1, 1999 or they are traditionally feos, such as thnsa cherged for recreation progrsms, that ere epproved as part of the budget process. Throughout 1999, the staft'of the Depertment of Finence will be developing a policy with reepect to revenues and user fees that will hopefully provida a business case for each user fee, provide for an annud review of a"I user fees by each Deper;ment in coordination with the Department of Finance and provide in one list dl user fees charged by the Town for easy reCerenco by Members of CounciL The following is an explanation of each of tho abova fees: 1. Pool En�loeure and Si¢n Permfta , , It is recommended thet the fee for Pooi Enclosuro Permits and Sign Permits bc incrcssed from S25 and S50 reapectively to SI50 beceuao of the smount oF time spent by staff in ' proassing tha pertnit applicedon, exemining the drawinge ettached to the spplication and performing sito vieite. Tho fea for Pool Enclocure Permits was last (ncrcesed in 1989 and the fea for Sign Peimita wea leat incteesed in 1993, . � o%� �: _ t ���. �'�= t �. � � .,.�i� . . .r} 5 : ��" . . . � . .., . . `� `• ,i > ''1 �. . . .. , :� " �� - � �'86:�� � ;,� , ,': ri.� . .. �, �r , . , ,. , , 2� F1ro Pergll� +�nd 1n�ecttooi � '� T6e F'v6 Depactment is raommend:ng that in any csso whcro tho eteff aro required to i widerteke an inspxdon or propare a pertnit, that tha fai be S1Z5: it is felt that tlue would cover the cost of the steff time`id processing tha peimit application o� undertaking an inspxtIon. Other then prepaiing a riro Inspeclion Repurt, uaually for insurance purpous, j all other inspections and pemtit processing by tha Fua Department hes been done free of ;charge. The feee proposa! for inspections and pemiit processing are aimilar to those . ', :c6erged in other area municipalities. 3: R«oondin¢ to Acddente •. AC presrnt, tha Fire Department only charges the M'inistry of Transport for responding to , accidents on Nighway 401 and Highway 7. It is proposed that they will start to charge thc Region for rosponding to accidents that occur on the Regional Roads and individuels for respond�ng to aceidents on Town roads. It is unartain at tiris time how much additional revenua these rypes of charges would bring in and thorefora no change hes been made to tha emount of rovenue expected in t999. The Fire Chief did indicate that he would require some discrotinn in charging individuals who were involved in accidents whera a death or some tragic injury occurred. 4. Othcr ChArees bv Fire Den, ment T'he Firo Department is propoeing to charga the actual costs involved with stefi' and equipment when asked to I;e on stnndby for a movie production. They ere only asked to do this on average about once per year but the cost is epproximately S2,000. A charge is elso being proposed for maintaining Supre Key Boxes which are secured key containero that can only be acccssed by the Fire Department in thc event of an emergency, , The Department maintains ten of these boxes and proposes a churge of S80 per box. 5. Subdiviaion Proceaain¢ Feq At present, the 'fuwn chuges a developer a fee of S35 per lot to offset tha wst of thc , Pubiic Works etefi' in reviewing documenta such es grading plans and engineering drawings of the subdivision to be built. It is proposed that this fec be increased to S40 per lot. This fec ha+ not been increased since the mid t980e. 6. Mun[doel Consent Few This is a new fee that would be charged to a utility company for a permit to undertske ; ik on Town-owned lends such es the boulevards. 1'he fce being proposed is 5300 per permit end it is anticipated that about 35 pemtits will ba granted in 1999.
