Ohio CITY OF DUBLIN Division of Building Standards 5800 Shier-Rings Road Dublin, Ohio 43016-1236 Phone: 614-410-4670 Fax: 614-761-6566 To: Dublin City Council From: Tim Hansley, Initiated by Bob Price RE: Collection of Fees for Washington Township Fire Department After-hours Inspections Date: August 13, 2001 Memo The scheduling of "After-hours Inspections" is always completed with both, the Building Standards Division and the Washington Township Fire Department Inspection staff being involved. Therefore, both entities have realized it would be much easier to schedule and pay for this service if it were completed at a single point. The logical point is at the Building Standards Division. These inspections are scheduled only at the owner's request, and then only because there is need to schedule ashut-down and testing in a controlled manner that will not disrupt business operations. The City of Dublin has charged an "After- hours Inspection" fee for several years to offset the cost of overtime. The Washington Township Fire Department has not previously charged a fee to offset their overtime costs. They now wish to change that policy and collect offsetting revenue. The Township Trustees have adopted a resolution establishing a prevention fee effective September 1, 2001. We are currently writing a receipt for collection of the "After-hours Inspection" fee, before the inspection will be scheduled for the Building Standards Division staff. The only change we will incur is to adjust our receipt and collect the Washington Township portion concurrently. This process will make scheduling very easy, since the requestor will have only one point of contact and will be required to write only one check. The fees collected on behalf of Washington Township will be credited to the City's Agency Fund and remitted to Washington Township on a quarterly basis. The attached Ordinance will allow the City Manager to enter into an agreement whereby the City of Dublin will collect the above mentioned "After-hours Inspection" fees for the Washington Township Fire Department. I recommend Council approve this ordinance because the process will benefit those we serve, with virtually no expense to the City.
