ADOPTED - JUNE 9, 2009
Agenda Item No. 21
Introduced by the Finance Committee of the:
INGHAM COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
RESOLUTION UPDATING VARIOUS FEES FOR COUNTY SERVICES
RESOLUTION #09-173
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners set various fees for county services in Resolution 02-155 based on information and recommendations of the Maximus Cost of Services Analysis completed in 2002; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners also established the percent of the cost of providing the services which should be recovered by such fees, referred to in this process as a “target percent”; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners has directed the Controller/Administrator’s Office to establish a process for the annual review of these fees and target percents; and
WHEREAS, this process begins with the calculation of a cost increase factor, which is equal to the previous three year average increase in the General Fund adopted budget for the appropriate departments; and
WHEREAS, this cost increase factor is applied to the previous year’s calculated cost and multiplied by the target percent and in most cases rounded to the lower full dollar amount in order to arrive at a preliminary recommended fee for the upcoming year; and
WHEREAS, in cases where the calculated cost multiplied by target percent is much higher than the current fee, the fee will be recommended to increase gradually each year until the full cost multiplied by target percent is reached, in order to avoid any drastic increases in fees; and
WHEREAS, in cases where the calculated cost multiplied by target percent is lower than the current fee, no fee increase will be recommended for that year; and
WHEREAS, after initial recommendations are made by the Controller/Administrator, these recommendations are distributed to the affected offices and departments, in order to receive their input; and
WHEREAS, after reviewing the input from the affected offices and departments, the Controller/Administrator makes final recommendations to the Board of Commissioners; and
WHEREAS, the Controller/Administrator’s Office has finished its annual review of these fees and recommended increases where appropriate based on increased costs of providing services supported by these fees and the percent of the cost of providing the services which should be covered by such fees as established by the Board of Commissioners; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners has reviewed the Controller/Administrator’s recommendations including the target percentages, along with recommendations of the various county offices, departments and staff.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Commissioners authorizes or encourages the following fee increases in Attachments A and B at the rates established effective January 1, 2010 with the exception of the Health Department, where new rates will be effective October 1, 2009.
ADOPTED - JUNE 9, 2009
