Title
Consideration and Approval of 2023 Fee Schedule for Unincorporated SLCo
Requested Agenda Item Description: The fee schedule is updated and adopted by each jurisdiction within the Greater Salt Lake Municipal Services District-ideally on an annual basis. It is common to accomplish this by resolution at the same time you approve your budget. MSD staff, in conjunction with SLCo Public Works, District Attorney’s Office and other counsel, have developed an updated fee schedule for 2023. This year, the fee schedule primarily adds clarifying language to the existing schedule. Next year, we are planning an independent and impartial study to evaluate the fees themselves in more detail and to determine and justify any changes for the 2024 schedule.
- These are the individual jurisdiction’s fee schedules, not the District’s. For simplicity, practicality, and efficiency, it makes sense where possibly to maintain as much uniformity between the schedules as possible. As such, the fee schedule for unincorporated SLCo resembles the fee schedule for the Town of Brighton and the five Metro Townships. While the core of the fee schedule is similar, there are some differences unique to your jurisdiction to maintain consistency with County code.
- Notable changes to the 2023 fee schedule include the following:
o Adding clarifying language to the business license late renewal fee. See page 3.
o Adding clarifying language to the administrative fees associate with Building Permit fees, such as fees associated with canceling or reinstating a fee, or building without a building permit. See page 4.
o Clarifying when the ICC valuation tables or declared valuation will be used when determining building permit fees. See page 4.
o Distinguishing Card File Plan Check fee for single and multi family residential units. See page 5.
o Adding clarity to the Solar project permit fee-distinguishing between a small residential or commercial project with a solar farm or large scale project. See page 6.
o Updating the ICC valuation table with latest table and associated values; as well as updating the supplemental valuation tables based on inflation (they haven’t been updated in a while). See page 7-8.
o Adding a floodplain development permit fee (nominal amount until the comprehensive study). See page 9.
o Striking land use application types that do not require certain types of public body review. See page 13.
o Clarifying the base fee description for Zoning Map Amendments or General Plan Amendments. See page 14.
o Updating the language and fees as provided by SLCo PW Engineering. See page 17.
o Updating the Glossary to define “Director” and “MSD” among other tweaks.

The goal is a Jan 1, 2023 effective date. Thank you.
