IntroductlOn
This report requests the Clty Council dlrect the City Attorney to prepare
an ordinance amending Chapter 1 of Article VII (PubllC Works) of the Santa
Monica Municipal Code relating to permit fees and charges relating to work
done by City forces.
Background
Fees charged by the Clty for public works activities such as asphalt repairt
sidewalk and curb repair have not been revlsed since 1975. Slnce that
tlme, costs of issuing permits and carrying out repair work have increased
signlficantly. Staff has evaluated current costs for the varlOUS types of
work descrlbed in the ordlnance using the following cost parameters:
Direct Labor............... Actual cost
Actual hourly or mileage rate based on
replacement cost plus operating cost
Materlals ................. Actual cost
Equipment Cost
Administrative overhead 50% of labor costs
The proposed permit and work fees along wlth the current fees are shown on
Exhibit 1. The minlmum charge for each type of work is based on the actual
cost to do the smallest amount of each type of work. Unit charges are appl1ed
when the actual unlt charge exceeds the stated minimum.
