The meeting of July 21, 1981, was called to order by Chairman Ronchetto and the
following agenda item discussed:
I. FEE STRUCTURE
Chief Pairitz as Chairman of the Task Force presented an overview into the
rational for the newly proposed fees as well as an overview of the system
of development of same.
Glen Andler then presented the following changes: Section 21.605, 21.610,
21.611, 21.617, 21.620, 22.401, 22.506.1, 21.11 and 22.503. As well as
16.309, 16.504.1, 16.411, 16.412, and 16.414.1. At this time Glen presented
information regarding present fees in neighboring communities as well as
material presenting the increases in material and labor costs that have
occurred since fees were last changed.
In the course of discussion in the changes, the Commission recommended
building in an escalation clause rather than stating a flat fee for
contractor material costs as this would result in an annual escalation
of costs that would be consistent with the cost of materials. The staff
agreed and Section 21.611 will be revised consistent with the recommendation
of the Finance Commission.
Community Development Director, Ken Fritz presented his recommendations
as follows explaining that these were all new fees and they were designed
to cover the real costs of completing the various handling of plats,
site plans and zoning reviews:

Capt. Les Wuollett presented a comparison in fee structures with the

and 21.621. The following recommendations were suggested by the Finance
Commission:
--Rewording of 21.616 to more clearly designate that the fee be charged
for demolition as well as moving.
--The rewording of 21.613, Section (f) and Section 16.309 to establish
a 2% of construction costs up to $50,000 and 1.5% of constrction
costs beyond $50,000 to be the basis for our plan review fees.

of the Task Force as revised this evening. It was further suggested that the
format of the report be revised before submission to the Village Board.
