Home Builders Association of Southwestern Montana - re city building permit and plan check fees Representatives of the Home Builders Association of Southwestern Montana appeared to pro- test a 66 percent increase in Bozeman city building permit and plan check fees. The new fees, which are the same as those listed in the state's Uniform Building Code, are scheduled to go into effect January 1, 1980. Speaking on behalf of the Home Builders Association, Clair Daines said the builders didn't object to some fee increases, but requested that the City justify the 66 percent increase with the cost of running the City building department. The Building Inspector said that with two men to inspect approximately $10 million of con- struction each year, the City is not providing the degree of inspection it should. Mayor Sedivy advised the representatives present that local government has to make a dec- ision between having self-supporting departments or using tax revenues to help support their I services. -' ': .1 .L I Mr. Daines said his main concern was that there wasn't enough information given out or public comment before the fee increases were adopted. The City Manager responded that the public doesn't get to review other building cost increases, and the City did hold a public hearing before adopting the Uniform Building Code. The representatives requested the City staff to compile a report on the building fees and work the department does.
