4-1-200 EXTRA FEES:

Whenever any application is to be handled under the terms of any portion of the City’s land use codes, adopted codes, or the International Building Code, and that application is so large, complicated or technically complex that it cannot be handled with existing City staff, then an additional fee can be charged which is equivalent to the extra costs incurred by the City of Renton to pay:

A. Overtime costs;

B. The pro rata costs of additional employees necessary to handle the application;

C. The costs expended to retain the qualified consultants to handle the project; and

D. Any general administrative costs when directly attributable to the project.

Such fees shall be charged only to the extent incurred beyond that normally incurred for processing an application. (Ord. 4596, 4-8-1996)

When the application or development plans are modified so as to require additional review by the City beyond the review normally required for like projects, at the discretion of the Community and Economic Development Administrator, an additional fee may be charged at seventy five dollars ($75.00) per hour.
