ITEM TITLE: Ordinance amending YMC 11.04.030, YMC 11.32.106.5.2,
and YMC 11.44.040 to eliminate automatic annual building
permit fee increases corresponding to Consumer Price Index
(CPI)
SUBMITTED BY: Mark Kunkler, Senior Assistant City Attorney
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
YMC 11.04.030 sets forth the schedule of fees and building valuation for permits and
inspections conducted under the International Building Code, which schedules contain a
provision providing that the listed fees and valuations shall be subject to annual automatic
adjustment to account for any increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the Seattle area
(Seattle CPI -VV). Likewise, the same automatic adjustment mechanism is set forth in YMC
11.32.106.5.2 pertaining to fees charged under the International Mechanical Code, and in YMC
11.44.040 pertaining to fees charged under the Uniform Plumbing Code.
The proposed Ordinance amends these code sections to eliminate the provisions in each
section providing that the listed fees and valuations shall be subject to annual automatic
adjustment to account for any increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the Seattle area
(Seattle CPI -VV). Thus, the permit fees would not be automatically increased for 2015 or for any
subsequent year.

necessary to eliminate an immediate hazard to life or property.

system or portion thereof, regulated by this Code, has become hazardous to life, health,
property, or has become insanitary, he shall order in writing that such plumbing either be
removed or placed in a safe or sanitary condition, as appropriate. The order shall fix a
