Committee approves minor fee tweak for universal design waiver requests

The Planning, Housing, and Economic Development Committee voted to move CR 82-20-26 favorably after adopting a minor amendment to the waiver fee language.

Policy staff told the committee the resolution covers three fees related to universal design for housing waiver requests — a waiver fee, an administrative fee and a technology fee — and that Draft 2 contains a single, limited change to the waiver fee. Miss Canning reviewed the draft amendment and the committee discussed textual placement in the fee schedule.

In the discussion of the change, Miss Canning said the amendment "goes from $293 to $294" and that the updated figure should appear in two places in the fee schedule and fee-calculation column. Members confirmed the amendment and the committee moved the resolution as amended; a roll-call vote was recorded as 4–0 in favor.

What happens next: The amended resolution will go to the full Council for further consideration. No public commenters were registered at the committee hearing.
