Bonds, Clerk to the Board (G-7) Changes to the Planning & Zoning Fee Schedule Jonathan Marshall, Commerce Director, reported the Commerce Department regularly reviews its fees to determine if they are fair, equitable and producing compensation for staff time worked. He said some changes to current fees as well as the addition of new fees have been proposed. He reported he had received a number of questions about the new fee proposed for the appeal of a Planning and Zoning Board decision to the Board of Commissioners. Mr. Marshall reviewed the Special Legislation that allows for final approval by the Planning and Zoning Board and explained the appeal process to the Board of Commissioners. Since appeals can come from residents or the applicant and in light of the amount of discussion the proposed fee for appeal by a resident has caused, Mr. Marshall suggested the Commerce Department continue the current practice and not charge a fee for appeals. He also said this fee schedule will be present~for approval by the towns (Midland, Mt. Pleasant and Harrisburg) that the Commerce Department contracts with for planning services.
