MEETING MINUTES
November 17, 2003
In attendance were Neil Burd, Bob Dawson, Vic Hadeed, Jeff Norman, Ben Saag, Tom
Sliney, John Sorrelli, Mona Texeira.
Proposed Fees: The fee is currently 1% of value of the house. (i.e.) a $200,000 house =
$2,000 permit fee. The committee was looking at changing this to 1 Y2% up to a
$200,000 house, then 1.25% above $200,000. This would include AC and electric fees.
It was decided to raise the $200,000 to $500,000.
Mr. Dowson noted that the building department files are public record and anyone may
inspect. He noted that a file would confirm if a permit was pulled for a job, buy the
Town is not responsible if someone were to change something later on which did not
come under scope of the permit.
Contractor Registration: The $2.00 state registration may be remove, but the Palm Beach
County $2.00 registration must stay.
Plumbing: Change permit fee from $75.00 to $100 on LP gas..
Back Flow: maybe remove
Trailers will be discussed at the next meeting.
