20.35.040 Subdivision – Engineering plan review fees.

Fees shall be collected to compensate the department for reviewing subdivision, short subdivision, planned unit development, boundary line adjustments, and binding site plan applications (including commercial binding site plans) pursuant with the provisions of KMC Title 17. Such permit review fees shall be divided into six basic processing phases: preapplication review, preliminary application review, engineering plan review, construction inspection, final approval, and post-approval site maintenance.
A. Preapplication Fees. Preapplication fees shall compensate the department for preliminary review and evaluation of subdivisions or planned unit development projects and for advising the permit applicant prior to the submittal of a formal application for a permit. Preapplication fees shall be collected at the time preapplication review services are rendered.
B. Preliminary Application Review Fees. Preliminary application review fees shall compensate the division for application intake screening, field investigation, development of staff reports or conditions of approval, technical meeting and public hearing staffing, and administrative support for file set up/maintenance and public hearing notification. Preliminary application review fees generally cover review through preliminary decision and shall be collected at the time of application submittal. Supplemental fees include separate fees to compensate for re-evaluation of applications remanded prior to preliminary decision or for additional review required for critical areas or special drainage features. Additional fees shall also be charged for the review of revisions submitted after preliminary approval and not necessitating additional hearings, local service area boundary line adjustments, subdivision alterations and subdivision vacations.
Supplemental application review fees shall be paid upon notification and before further application processing. Failure to pay supplemental review fees by the payment deadline set forth in the supplemental fee notification will cause the application to be deemed cancelled. Revision, local service area boundary line adjustment, and subdivision alteration fees shall be paid at the time of submittal.
C. Engineering Plan Review. Engineering plan review includes engineering plan screening and intake; review of engineering plans for consistency with adopted design standards, guidelines, and conditions of preliminary approval; establishment of construction bond amounts; and administrative support for file updating and maintenance. Initial engineering plan review fees cover plan screening/intake and the first detailed engineering review of plans. Corrections and additions requiring additional engineering review shall be charged a resubmittal fee composed of a base handling fee and an hourly review fee. Post engineering approval revisions requiring plan resubmittal and additional engineering review shall be charged a resubmittal fee. Initial engineering review fees shall be collected upon plan submittal. The base handling portion of resubmittal fees shall be collected upon plan resubmittal. Hourly resubmittal fees shall be collected at the completion of engineering review and prior to engineering approval.
D. Construction Inspection Fees. Construction inspection fees shall compensate the department for the inspection of facilities required for final construction approval. Initial construction inspection fees shall cover inspections during the first 12 months from engineering plan approval and are payable upon engineering approval. Initial fees shall be based upon the City’s estimate of construction cost. Annual construction inspection fees shall be charged an hourly rate for the inspection of facilities required after the first 12 months from engineering plan approval and until final construction approval. Annual construction inspection fees shall be charged only where the delay in final construction approval is not attributable to unwarranted delay by the department. Supplemental inspection fees shall be charged for reinspection of facilities if the time period from construction approval to final facility acceptance exceeds 60 days. Supplemental inspection fees shall combine a base fee to cover file administration and hourly inspection fees, and shall be collected prior to facility acceptance. Supplemental construction inspection fees shall be charged only where the delay in final acceptance is not attributable to unwarranted delay by the department.
E. Final Approval Fees. Final approval fees compensate the department for engineering review of the final recording forms and for final application review to assure compliance with all conditions of approval, including construction or bonding of required improvements, dedications, and drainage or critical areas depictions. Separate review fees shall be charged for any alterations to final approvals authorized by KMC TItle 17.
F. Post-Approval Site Maintenance Fees. Post-approval site maintenance fees compensate the department for inspections necessary to assure that adequate post-approval maintenance of facilities has occurred and that facilities to be accepted for future county maintenance are free of defects. The maintenance/defect bond inspection fee shall consist of a base fee to cover file administration and updating, and a variable fee based on the bond amount to cover actual inspections.
