OAR 918-650-0030: Fees — Expiration — Validation

(1)(a) Area Development Fee. The area development fee is determined from Table 1-RV using the valuation for all facilities for which the permit is issued. The fees in Table 1-RV are based upon valuation Table 2-RV for recreation parks or may be determined by the applicant with documentation acceptable to the issuing authority. Permit fees must be paid before any work begins. NOTE: Table 1-RV is based on Table 3-A of the 1988 Uniform Building Code. The Area Development Permit does not include permits or related fees for buildings, manufactured dwelling installations, accessory buildings and structures, mechanical, plumbing or electrical systems, boilers, elevators, or permits required by other agencies. (b) Plans Review Fee. The area development Plan Review Fee is 65 percent of the area development permit fee set forth in subsection (1)(a) of this rule and must be paid when plans and specifications are submitted for review; (c) Other Fees: (A) Inspections outside of normal business hours (minimum charge — two hours), $50/hour; (B) Reinspection fee, $50/hour; (C) Inspection for which no fee is specifically indicated (minimum charge — one-half hour), $50/hour; (D) Additional plan review required by changes, additions or revisions to approved plans (minimum charge — one-half hour), $50/hour; (E) Consultation fee (minimum one hour), $30/hour. (2) Other Fees: (a) A special inspection is required and a special inspection fee must be paid before a permit may be issued for work started without a permit. The special inspection fee must be equal to and in addition to the amount of the permit fee required by these rules; (b) Other Inspection Fees. In addition to the called for inspections, the building official may make or require inspections of any construction work to confirm compliance with the provisions of this code and other laws which are enforced by the building official; (c) Reinspection Fees. A reinspection fee may be assessed for each inspection or reinspection when the work for which inspection is called is not complete or when corrections called for are not made. NOTE: This subsection is not intended to require reinspection fees the first time a job is rejected for failure to comply with the requirements of this code, but is to control the practice of calling for inspections before the job is ready for such inspection or reinspection. (3) Expiration and Validity of Plans and Permits: (a) Expiration of Plan Approval. Area Development plan approval expires one year after the date that the approval is granted if no area development permit is issued. Upon receipt of a written request from the applicant the building official may extend the time for action by the applicant for a period of not to exceed 180 days. To renew action on an application after the expiration of a plan approval, the applicant must resubmit plans and pay a new plan review fee; (b) Expiration of Area Development Permit. An area development permit expires if the work it authorizes is not commenced within 180 days from the date of issuance of the permit, or if the work is suspended or abandoned for 180 days at any time after it is commenced. A permittee holding an unexpired permit may apply for an extension of the time within which the work may be commenced under that permit. The time for action by the permittee may not exceed 180 days. Requests for extensions must be in writing, and no permit may be extended more than once. If such work is not recommenced, before a permit or extension expires a new permit must be obtained. The fee is one-half the amount required for the first permit, provided that: (A) No changes have been made in the original plans and specifications; and (B) The duration of the suspension of work or abandonment has not exceeded one year. (c) Validity. The issuance or granting of an area development permit or approval of area development plans and specifications may not be construed to be a permit for, or approval of, any violation of any of the provisions of these rules. The issuance of a permit based upon plans and specifications may not prevent the building official from later requiring the correction of errors in such plans; (d) Suspension or Revocation. The building official may, in writing, suspend or revoke an area development permit when the permit is issued in error or on the basis of incorrect information supplied, or in violation of any provision of these rules, or any other ordinances. (4)(a) The fees established in this rule apply to the Division. (b) Municipalities who have been delegated the park and camp program by the Division may establish their own fee schedule or adopt the Division’s fee schedule through local ordinance. (c) The amount of the fee may not exceed the costs of administering the park and camp program. (d) The municipality, quarterly, must remit 15 percent of the collected fees to the Division for monitoring municipal programs and for providing informational material necessary to maintain a uniform state program.
