The proposed land use fee schedule would allow the City to recover more of the cost of
permit review from applicants. It uses a hybrid fee approach that would retain fixed
application fees for most routine permit types but charge a retainer and hourly fees for
more complex, Tess predictable permits. This approach was discussed at the 4/26/10
Committee of the Whole. The Council is being asked to consider and approve the fee
resolution as well as the ordinance.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Haggerton
Tukwila City Council
FROM: Jack Pace, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Proposed Land Use Fee Schedule
Jim Haggerton, Mayor
The Department of Community Development (DCD) has developed a revised land use fee
schedule that would set application fees closer to the City's cost to provide development review
services, allowing the City to recover more of the cost from applicants.
BACKGROUND
The Council reviewed DCD's revenue enhancement proposal at the April 26, 2010 Committee
of the Whole meeting. They expressed support for a hybrid fee approach that would retain fixed
application fees for most routine permit types but charge a retainer and hourly fees for more
complex, less predictable permits. They also asked that the proposed fees be compared to the
average fees charged by nearby cities, see Attachment A. This chart comparing Tukwila's fees
to other cities has been expanded by including Des Moines, the only other nearby city that has
fixed fees, and adding additional permit types. This information along with the proposed fee
schedule and ordinance was presented to the Finance and Safety Committee on June 8, 2010
who forwarded it on to the full Council.
DISCUSSION
Staff has developed a land use fee schedule that would result in an expected increase in permit
revenue of 80 to 120% over current levels, see Attachment B. The actual revenue generated in
a given year depends on the number and type of permits that are submitted. For comparison
here are the actual fees received over the past few years and the estimated amount that would
have been generated under the proposed fee schedule:
Estimated
2010 2009 2008 2007
Actual Permit Revenue $86,475 $86,129 $135,297 $119,944
Estimate w /New Fees $191,306 $168,246 $240,628 $246,705
Percentage Increase 121% 95% 78% 105%
The new fees are based on the estimated number of hours of planner and administrative
support time required to process each application. Hearing examiner charges as well as the
costs for any special studies would be passed through to applicants. To be defensible permit
fees should only recover costs incurred to provide review service. The average permit fee
charged by nearby cities is listed in the far right column of Attachment B for comparison.

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
The fee for a tree permit has been codified by ordinance as $25 since the adoption of the Tree
Regulations, TMC Chapter 18.54, in 1995. While it is desirable to keep the initial application fee
low to encourage compliance, tree regulation violations can require significant staff time to
resolve. Staff proposes adoption of the attached ordinance, see Attachment C, to remove the
fee listing from TMC 18.54.100, move it to the land use fee resolution, Attachment D, and
charge hourly for complex permits such as those to mitigate illegal tree removal in
environmentally sensitive areas.
The updated land use fee resolution is Attachment D. Given the current budget situation staff
plans to develop the necessary procedures to start charging hourly fees by the third quarter of
2010 so the fee resolution is written to take effect July 1, 2010. The resolution lists one set of
fees for the second half of 2010 and 2011 with an increase of 5% planned for 2012.
RECOMMENDATION
The Council is being asked to review the fee schedule and provide comments on any changes.
The Council is also being asked to forward the resolution and ordinance on to the June 21, 2010
Regular meeting.

B. Ordinance adopting the 2009 International Fire Code
C. Proposed Land Use Fee Schedule
City of Tukwila
Finance and Safety Committee
Staff is seeking full Council approval of a Fireworks Permit Application submitted by Mr. Tom Whitacre
for the fireworks display at the City's annual 4"' of July celebration at Fort Dent. Mr. Whitacre has
provided the fireworks display for the past several years. Last year, the field did incur some scorching
which resulted in about $15,000 in repair costs, covered by the vendor. This year the field will be
covered/flooded with water to avoid similar issues. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO
JUNE 14 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
Staff is seeking approval to forward this item to Council for adoption. The Code, as amended, addresses
a need for adequate ground ladder access to second (and higher) story windows; provides for increased
permit fees, and establishes a broader range of penalties for violations of the Fire Code. The 2009 IFC
also requires the owners of certain types of buildings, to bring their property into current code
compliance. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL, FORWARD TO JUNE 14 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
Staff is seeking approval of a revised land use fee schedule, which would more closely reflect full cost
recovery. At Council's request, staff conducted further research comparing current and proposed fees
with neighboring jurisdictions. The new fee hours are based on the estimated number of hours
(planner /admin.) required to process each application. For certain permit types requiring significant
resources, fees would be estimated up- front, and considered a "retainer An hourly fee would be added
for hours above and beyond the base fee, as required, to cover costs. The Committee discussed the need
for Council to balance the need for full cost recovery, with other cost and revenue considerations
currently under review (i.e. tax rate on City owned utilities, business license fees, etc.) UNANIMOUS
APPROVAL, FORWARD TO JUNE 14 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
