WHEREAS, the Monroe County Board of County Commissioners wishes to
provide the citizens of the County with the best possible service in the most cost effective

existing fee schedule does not reflect the true cost of providing services to the parties
requesting services from the Planning and Environmental Resources Department; and
WHEREAS, the updated fee schedule prepared by the Growth Management
Director for providing these services includes the estimated direct costs and reasonable
indirect costs associated with the review and processing of planning and development
approval applications and site plans, on-site biological reviews, administrative appeals,
preparation of official documentation verifying existing development rights and other
processes and services; and
WHEREAS, the overall general administrative and operational overhead of the
Growth Management Division is not included in the fee amounts; and,
WHEREAS, the Board heard testimony and evidence presented as to the
appropriate fee schedule during a public hearing on April 15, 2009; and,
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners concurs with the
recommendations of the Growth Management Director;
