MASON COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
FINDINGS OF FACT
November 4, 2003
1 .
As currently authorized by Ordinance 149- 02 , the collection of fees for processing various land use
permits, action, and services are expected to be insufficient to cover the costs of administrative
services provided by the Department of Community Development .
2 .
The proposed fees are by best estimate adequate to cover the administrative permitting and permit
related service costs of the Planning Division, although they do not cover the full county cost of
providing these services .
3 .
The revised fees allows the county to continue to provide other mandated or vital public services .
4 .
Adjustments to the fees have been made to increase most fees by 2 % to cover increased costs , to
reduce the hearing examiner fee for easement removals to reflect the lower costs for this type of
review, to increase the hearing examiner fee or other permit hearings to reflect costs based on the
first several months of operation, and to establish a fee for legal consultation when requests require
the involvement of a county prosecutor.
5 .
The Board of County Commissioners held a public hearing on November 4 , 2003 for the purpose
of taking public testimony and to deliberate on the action to be taken .
These findings provide a basis for approval of the proposed fee changes .
