Public Hearing on revisions to the Public Works Department and
Department of Community Development Fee Schedules
Statement of Issue:
The Public Works Department and Department of Community Development have
developed a Draft Ordinance that revises the following sections of the Jefferson
County Code, Appendix FEE SCHEDULES:
. II. Department of Community Development Fee Schedule
11-020 Addresses and road naming
IV. Public Works Department Fee Schedule
IV-010 Right-of-way use applications
IV-020 Utility applications
IV -030 Miscellaneous applications
IV-040 Development review applications
The revisions to the DCD Fee Schedule are minor. The Public Works Fee Schedule Is
. proposed to be completely rewritten. They both reflect realigning tasks performed by
Public Works and DCD with their core missions. Road naming and road name changes
would be added to the DCD fees and road approach, general right-of-way, and utility
permits would be added to the Public Works fees.
The Board has scheduled a public hearing. Public Works has complied with the public
notice requirements and posted the Fee Schedules and public hearing notice on the
County's Internet home page. .
Analysis/Strategic Goals/Pro's & Con's:
Also attached are:
. A memo that discusses the proposed Public Works fees,
. Expense analysis of the proposed Public Works fees, and
Department of Public Works
o Regular Agenda
Page 2 of 2
. A chart that compares the proposed Public Works fees with existing fees and fees
charged by Clallam, Kitsap, and Thurston Counties for similar activities.
The proposed DCD fees are based on DCD's current fee methodology: the typical time
required to process an application times the current DCD hourly rate.
Fiscal Impact/Cost Benefit Analysis:
Both Fee Schedules are intended to recover Public Works' and Community
Development's expenses for providing services and ensure that there is not a negative
fiscal impact.
Recommendation:
Prior to the public hearing, Public Works and Community Development will make a
brief presentation and answer questions regarding the Fee Schedules.
Public Works is not requesting the Board to adopt the Fee Schedule on February 13.
The comment period will be held open until 4 PM on February 17. Public Works and
Community Development will compile the comments and prepare responses and, if
appropriate, recommend revisions to the Fee Schedules for consideration by the
Board.

RE:
Poblic Works Department Draft Fee Schedule - Analysis
The Poblic Works Department has submitted a Poblic Works Fee Schedule to the Board for review and
approval. It is a complete revision of the Department's fees. The Fee Schedule proposes fees for:
. Road Approach Permits
. Right-of-way General Permits I Licenses
. Open Poblic Right-of-way Permits
. Utility Permits
. Franchises
. Oversize Vehicle Permits
. Road Improvement Districts
. County Road I Lot Segregation Right-of-way Research
. Road Name Sign Fabrication and Installation
. Poblic Road Right-of-way Setback Variances
. Poblic Road Right-of-way Vacations
. Temporary Outdoor Use I Temporary Festival Permits
. Binding Site Plan Approvals
. Building Permit review for commercial and industrial developments
. Comprehensive Plan Site Specific Amendments
. Conditional Use Permits
. Pre-Application Conferences
. Shoreline Substsntial Development Permits and Exemptions
. Site Plan Approval Advance Determinations (SP AADs)
. Special Use Permits I Essential Poblic Facility Permits
. Stormwater Management Permits
. Short Subdivisions
. Long Subdivisions
. PIat Alterations
Public Works Department Fee Schedule Analysis
The activities for which fees are proposed fall into two main categories:
· Road and right-of-way monogement activities such as Road Approach, Open Right-of-way, Utility,
and Oversize Vehicle Permits, Franchises, and Road Vacations and
· Development review activities where Public Works performs traffic and storm water management
tasks related to development applications. Development review fees mirror the applications in the
Deparbnent of Community Development's Fee Schedule that Public Works reviews.
Fee Types
The Fee Schedule proposes three types of fees:
· Application Fees are proposed when there is typically little variance in the time required to process
an application. Examples include Annual Utility Permits, Oversize Vehicle Permits, installing Road
Name Signs, and Pre-Application Conferences.
· Application Fees with additional Hourly Fees are proposed where initial project review is typically
uniform, but subsequent phases may have significaut variation. Examples include Road Approach,
Open Right-of-way, and Type B Utility Permits, and most development review applications. For
example two Type B Utility InstaIlation Permit applications may require similar review time to issue
a permit, but one may require significantly more time fur construction inspections. When Public
Works' expense for a project exceeds the Application Fee, an Hourly Fee would be charged. The
Deparbnent of Community Development's Fee Schedule uses a similar approach - a Base Fee with
additional Hourly Fees. CIaIIam, Kitsap, and Thurston Counties also use this approach.
· Hourly Fees are proposed for applications that Public Works does not typically review, for example
Temporary Outdoor Use Permits and Shoreline Development Permits. If Public Works determines
that review is warranted, the applicaut would be charged an Hourly Fee. An Hourly Fee is also
proposed for Unified Development Code Conditioual Use Permits since these applications cover a
wide range of projects, many of which Public Works does not review.
Expense Analysis and Reeovery
The goal of the Fee Schedule is to recover Public Works' expenses for performing these services. The
fees are composed of wage and benefit expenses plus an aIIocation for Public Work's indirect expenses.
The indirect expense aIIocation includes expenses such as management, accounting, support staff, rent,
vehicles, and computers. It is based on a cost allocation analysis which determined Public Works' indirect
expense percentages. For most of the applications listed in the Fee Schedule, the Transportation
Operations 34% indirect cost aIIocation is used. For Oversize Vehicle Permits and Road Name Signs
which are the responsibility of the Maintenance Division, the Road Maintenance 32% indirect cost
allocation is used.
In order to estimate the total time required for processing each application, Public Works mapped the
typical steps and the time required for each step. This information is provided in the attached Fee
Schedale Expense Analysis.
Fee Comparison
The attached County Fee Comparison worksheet compares the proposed fees with current Jefferson
County fees and fees charged by ClalIam, Kitsap, and Thurston Counties.

(3) Road Improvement District Petition Fee
Background
A Road Improvement District (RID) creates a special taxing district to fund the construction or Improvement of a County Road
from assessments on properly In the RID.
RiDs ere typically formed by petition of properly owners end established by e resolullon of the BOCC.
Before establishing en RID, Jefferson County neede to determine thet the Increeeed velue of the properties In the RID will be
greater then the cost of the road Improvements.
A Special Baneflt Apprslael estlmetes the Increased velue for each lot It sets e budget for the RID.
Preliminery engineering estimates the cost of the project end whether" can be constructed within the RID budget
Performing theee tasks requires significant expense by PWD that must be reimbursed and not be peld for from the Road Fund.
RCW 36.88.074 provldes that counties mey contract with properly owners to pay for RID preformation expenses. The properly
owners would be reimbursed from RID revenues after the RID Is established.
If the RID Is established, RID preformation expenses are reimbursed through the RID assessments.
If the RID Is not established, PWD needs to be reimbursed for preformaflon expenses. In order to ensure this the Fee Schedule
ahould require an RID Petition Fee thet will cover preformation project management and engineering expenses for a simple
RID. If PWD determines that preformation expenses will exceed the RID Petition Fee, the petitioners will entsr Into a contract
with Jefferson County to reimburse PWD for reasonable preformation expenses that exceed the RID Petition Fee.
Petitioners should also provlde a Speclsl Baneflt Appl'8lael prepared by a Washington State Ucensed Appralser.
Typical Road Improvement District Process
Properly owners subm" a petition to establish an RID. The petition must be signed by the owners of e majority of the properly
fronting the proposed road end of the acreage comprising the district The petition must include a map and a lagal description
of the proposed district boundary. The petitioners must pay the RID Petition Fee and provide the Special Baneflt Appralael.
PWD develope en estimate of pe/IIIon revlew and preliminery engineering expenses. If the estimated expenses exceed the RID
Petition Fee, PWD will contract with the petitioners to reimburse PWD for thoes expenses.
PWD reviews the pe/IIIon and district boundary to verify that the petitioners own a majority of the roed frontage and acreage In
the proposed district .
PWD develope a preliminary engineering plan and estimatas project management and conatructlon expense.
PWD prepares County Engineer's Report that desertbea the RID bounderies, estimates total project cost (Including right-of-way
