Some Counties impose fees at reduced percentages while others include a range of categories under the"EMS" fee. Consideration may be given to amending the chart or eliminating it from the report,however the BCC will potentially request Staff to provide comparisons on the proposed rates and the relationship to other Counties. • Concern on the rationale for the proposed fees for fast food establishments with Staff noting they are seeking a partner in the food industry to assist in reviewing the category. • Government services include those improvements not accounted for elsewhere such as the Courthouses, Tax Collector, Administration, Supervisor of Elections buildings, etc. • Lee County impact fee rates are substantially less however they rely heavily on property taxes to fund capital improvements. • There has not been an increase in fees since 2010 andat that time the Board of County Commissioners reduced the rates imposed. • In the past the Committee has separated the recommendations into one for the methodology used to develop the rates,and the other on the rate of fees to be imposed. Nilgun Kamp,Tindale-Oliver provided an overview on the rationale for the level proposed for fast food establishments noting the intensity of the operation correlates to the proposed fee.
