Resolution 5387 - REPEALS RESOLUTION 5014 - Transfers Fees from Building, Zoning, Fire, & Site Review to Appropriate DepartmentsRESOLUTION NO. 5387
A RESOLUTION TO REPEAL RESOLUTION 5014 WHICH SET THE CITY OF KALISPELL
FEES ASSOCIATED WITH BUILDING PERMITS, ZONING ADMINISTRATION, FIRE
PREVENTION AND SITE REVIEW AND TO ESTABLISH THE TRANSFER OF FUNDS
FROM THE BUILDING FUND TO THOSE CITY DEPARTMENTS BASED UPON
DOCUMENTED SERVICES PROVIDED AND MAKING SUCH POLICY EFFECTIVE
IMMEDIATELY.
WHEREAS, the City of Kalispell currently receives revenue and, as required by state law, keeps a
discrete account for its building permit fees and building code inspection services as
allowed under the uniform codes adopted by the City; and
WHEREAS, other city departments augment the building department services by providing other
inspection and review services, such as zoning administration, fire prevention and site
review; and
WHEREAS, Resolution No. 5014, adopted by the City on June 6, 2005, provided for a percentage
share distribution to those other departments providing the augmenting services based
upon a projected building activity; and
WHEREAS, more recent experience has proven that projecting building activity may not be the most
precise or prudent method of allocating the building funds to the various city departments
providing inspection and review services; and
WHEREAS, the Kalispell City Council therefore finds that the allocation of building funds should be
made to the various city departments based upon actual per unit measures of services
provided.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KALISPELL
AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION I. Each city department that provides inspection or review services that augment
the building department services and are otherwise eligible to receive funds from
the City Building Department revenue account shall submit a reimbursement
request to the City Finance Director, on a quarterly basis, by a report that
provides a per unit accounting of services provided, whereupon the City Finance
Director shall make the appropriate account transfers and such budget
adjustments as may be necessary.
SECTION II. Resolution No. 5014, to the extent to which it is inconsistent with this resolution,
is hereby repealed.
PASSED AND APPROVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL AND SIGNED BY THE MAYOR OF THE
CITY OF KALISPELL, THIS 8TH DAY OF SEPTEMBER,_2Q09.
