Bill/Resolution | HB782 PN0925 A08295 | Type of Motion | Adopt Amendment |
Maker of Motion | Rep. Dush | Seconded by | Rep. Mentzer |
Brief Description |
Would gut and replace bill with language that would allow permit applicants, in a municipality which has designated one third party agency for exclusive enforcement of Uniform Construction Code (UCC), to use a third party agency of their choosing if the alternative third party agency remits a surcharge to the municipality. The legislation gives the municipality the ability to establish the surcharge amount, via ordinance, as a percentage of up to ten percent of the total fee charged by the alternative third party agency. If no ordinance is enacted the surcharge amount is 1%. The amendment requires that the permit applicant notify the municipality and the exclusive third party agency of its intent to utilize an alternative third party agency; notification shall provide the name of the third party agency and appropriate contact information for the agency. Before commencing work on the project, the alternative third party agency would be required to notify the municipality and its exclusive third party agency that it is performing code enforcement services on a project. The alternative third party agency would be required to provide, on the date of issuance, a copy of the building permit issued for the project and approved plans, to the municipality and its exclusive third party agency. The amendment requires that a permit applicant utilize the services of the third party agency they select for the duration of a project.
