Department:	Planning & Physical Development

Subject:

Discussion and possible action to itemize and set fees by Order as part of the Fiscal Year 2014-2015 budget preparation process for the county’s floodplain management program including but not limited to determinations, development permits, certifications and inspections as prescribed by the provisions of Section 16.324, Texas Water Code. Staff recommends keeping the same fee schedule approved with the Fiscal Year 2013-2014 budget which should result in an estimated revenue of $9,000 in the Fiscal Year 2014-2015 budget.

Background:

Pursuant to Section 16.324, Texas Water Code, the adoption of fees associated with floodplain management by counties must be itemized and set as part of the budget preparation process of the commissioners court.

The Planning Department Staff recommends that the same fee schedule be extended into the FY 14-15 budget which should result in an estimated revenue of approximately $9,000. A draft of the proposed Order showing the recommended fee schedule is attached hereto.

Previous Court Action:

Since the original enactment of these provisions (September 1, 2001), each fiscal year the Webb County Commissioners Court has adopted its fee schedules for floodplain management as presented during the Court’s budget hearings and/or workshops.
