Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Case #5: <br /> <br />Introduce Ordinance to Adopt 2003 Building Construction, Planning, <br />Subdividing, and Platting Fees <br /> <br />Community Development Director Frolik stated the 2001 Legislature, in its regular and special <br />sessions, made several amendments to statutes that apply to the Minnesota Building Codes and <br />Standards Division and the Minnesota State Building Code. One of the amendments is that <br />municipal fees for building construction must be adopted by ordinance, as well as zoning, <br />subdivision and platting fees. Last November, City Council adopted resolution #02-11-288 <br />adopting all City rates and charges for 2003. Per State legislation, Staff has prepared an <br />ordinance to ratify the fees established last November. In addition, the ordinance proposes to <br />amend the Building Code Chapter of City Code to identify that the City will be requiring permits <br />for re-roofing and re-shingling. <br /> <br />Councilmember Zimmerman stated that he has some problems with requiring a permit for re- <br />shingling. He inquired if someone would be required to get a permit to re-shingle their garage. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Frolik replied that if the garage is attached to the home they <br />would be required to have a permit, but for a detached garage slte would have to research that <br />further and report back to the Council. <br /> <br />Councilmember Cook inquired does the permit require a City inspector to check the roof. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Frolik explained that an inspector would inspect the roof after <br />the shingles were removed to make sure the sheathing is in good condition. <br /> <br />City Administrator Norman stated a consultant for the City recently completed a survey regarding <br />building permits and they discovered that Ramsey was one of the few communities that was not <br />requiring a permit and inspecting the work for re-roofing and re-shingling. <br /> <br />Councilmember Elvig stated that with the all the mold concerns it is probably a good idea to look <br />at what is underneath siding. <br /> <br />Councilmember Zimmerman inquired if a property owner were to apply a layer of shingles over <br />existing shingles would the City require a permit. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Frolik replied no. <br /> <br />City Council/January 14, 2003 <br /> Page 14 of 27 <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />! <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />i <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br /> <br />
