DATE: November 18, 2024
SUBJECT: Consolidated Permit Fee Resolution for 2025-2026
ISSUE
The City of Tukwila's Department of Community Development (DCD) has evaluated its permit
and fee structure and recommends modest inflation adjusted changes for land use,
infrastructure and development related services in 2025 and 2026. These fees will be
consolidated with other rates and charges administered by Public Works and presented in a
single 2025-26 consolidated fee schedule and resolution for consideration by the City Council.
BACKGROUND
The City has previously updated permit fees on a two-year cycle to align with the budget
biennium and reflect the cost of service. A 5% technology fee to provide for online permitting
software upgrades/maintenance, archiving paper records to digital form, and other permit
related technology upgrades is added onto most permit fees. Some permits have additional
fees such as hearing examiner services for review of Type 3 permits. This fee is collected with
the land use application and passed through to the applicant.
Some permits incur additional costs for Fire Department review. Resolution 1967 adopted fees
charged by the Puget Sound Regional Fire Authority which are in addition to the fees listed in
Attachment A. Public Works staff previously came forward with fee recommendations around
the Utilities that will be incorporated into this consolidated resolution.
DISCUSSION
Overall
Staff is suggesting that most permit fees increase at 3.6% in 2025 and 4.2% in 2026 to reflect
the City's increased labor and benefit costs due to a rapid rise in inflation. The CPI-W was 3.6%
for the June 2024 period and additional cost increases are anticipated to affect costs for
equipment, vehicles, supplies, etc. Additionally, staff is suggesting that hourly inspection fees
and after-hours inspections should be increased to $120 and $125 per hour in order to recover
staff costs associated with inspections.

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
Permits in this category are based on the value of the construction covered by the permit. This
permit value is developed by the International Code Council and updated twice a year. High
cost areas, such as the Puget Sound Region, apply a modifier to this nationwide index.
DCD has introduced two additional line items in the "Other Inspections and Fees" table to cover
the costs of extending issued and expired permits. These requests are common when projects
have been inactive for extended periods and demand considerable research and processing
time from the Development Center team. The proposed flat fees reflect the average time
needed to manage these requests accurately and efficiently.
OTHER INSPECTIONS AND FEES
Permit extension for issued permit- when allowed by code
$120
Permit extension for expired permit- when allowed by code
$240
Tukwila has a reduced permit fee of $100 for minor residential remodels/repairs up to a value
of $25,000. The intent is to remove a barrier to permitting for homeowners making modest
improvements to their houses or repairing storm damage. This can help to ensure that
construction is done safely and in accordance with building codes.
Utility Fees
Utility fees are being added to the combined fee resolution for ease of reference. Consultant
recommendations were provided to Council on June 3, September 16, and October 28, 2024.
Land Use Permits
As part of Resolution 2103 effective October 26, 2024, new permit types were created in
alignment with state bill 5290, and fees were set for each permit type. This proposed resolution
adjusts those fees for 2025-2026 to account for inflation and also introduces a fee for public
noticing. This new fee will offset the cost of staff to create and install smaller public notice signs
for Type 2 permits (permits which require public notice but not a public hearing), allowing for a
quicker turnaround and more efficient communication with impacted communities and
stakeholders.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The proposed fee increases will keep pace with the City's costs to provide these necessary
services.
RECOMMENDATION
The Council is being asked to consider this fee resolution at the November 18, 2024 meeting
and adopt it at the subsequent November 25, 2024 Special Meeting.
