ESTES PARK MEDICAL CENTER FEE WAIVER REQUEST.
The Estes Park Medical Center (EPMC) is planning construction of a $2.2 million
emergency room expansion/upgrade and is requesting a waiver of the development
plan review fee in the amount of $2,500 and building plan review and inspection fees
estimated at $15,000 to $18,000. Current policy states that the Community
Development Committee may exempt fees in an amount not to exceed $2,500 per
project for the following entities:
1. public funded government construction (federal, state, county, local);
including
2. tax districts / special districts ( e.g. hospital, library, parks and rec.); or
3. private non-profit organizations providing low income health care services or
low income housing.
Waiver of fees exceeding $2,500 must be authorized by the Town Board. Staff
recommends waiving the $2,500 development plan review fee as per policy. The
Committee discussed the following: fees and right-of-ways were negotiated during the
previous Estes Park Medical Center project; other governmental agencies may be
making similar requests in the future; fees are being calculated on actual cost of
construction; fees help to recover costs of building department staff; and out-of-house or
out-of-pocket expenses flow back to applicant. The Committee recommends
approval to waive the $2,500 development plan review fees for the Estes Park
Medical Center emergency room project and setting an action item for an
upcoming Town Board meeting to discuss the waiver of the additional $15,000 to
$18,000 in building plan review and inspection fees.
