John Szerlag, City Manager <br />Hans Ottinot, City Attorney <br />Jane A. Hines, City Clerk <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />The Honorable Mayor and City Commission <br /> <br />A. John Szerlag, City Manager <br />Clayton L. Parker, Building Official/Administrator cJ..f <br /> <br />September 21, 2006 <br /> <br />Amend Resolution No. 2006-924 for an Extension of Time to Waive Permit <br />Fees <br /> <br />RECOMMENDA TION: <br /> <br />It is requested that the City Commission adopt the Resolution. <br /> <br />REASONS: <br /> <br />In the wake of Hurricane Wilma the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2005-850 which <br />waived the City Building Permit fees for property owners for any Hurricane related repairs for a <br />six-month period, which ended on April 26, 2006. Because many residents were unable to get <br />their repairs done during the amnesty time period, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. <br />2006-924, which extended the deadline through July 26, 2006 and included the waiver of permit <br />fees for the installation of backup generators for property owners of facilities used by the public. <br />However, as we still have some permit applications outstanding due to the vast amount of <br />destruction caused by last year's hurricane season, staff is requesting an amendment to <br />Resolution No. 2006-924 to extend the waiver period through October 31,2006. <br /> <br />ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: <br /> <br />The intent of Resolutions No. 2005-850 and No. 2006-924 were to provide relief to Hurricane <br />Wilma victims for the damages incurred by the storm as well as to waive building permit fees for <br />generators for property owners of facilities used by the public. However, we have encountered <br />several unforeseen issues with regards to the above matter, which has caused delays by <br />contractors and engineers to give Condominium Associations and residents the required <br />permitting paperwork for the needed repairs. Therefore, staff feels that an extension period is <br />necessary to allow residents to obtain the required information for permitting. <br /> <br />Agenda Item 1 0 3" <br />Date q-21-D~ <br />
