Summary Previously, the City of Alachua and City of High Springs entered into an Interlocal Agreement for reciprocal building official services. At this time, the City of High Springs does not have a building official, and wishes to utilize the services of Alachua's Building Official.
The purpose of the proposed Interlocal Agreement is to provide High Springs with the availability of a qualified building official to handle building permitting and inspections for High Springs in order for those services to be provided in an economic and efficient manner. Those services are to include building inspection services for permitted construction activity related to building construction, erection, repair, addition, remodeling, demolition, or alteration projects that are subject to the Florida Building Code related to building, plumbing, electrical and mechanical work, and provide all permit holders a record of the inspection results required by statute.
The proposed fees for services are $55.00 for each inspection; $55.00 per hour for plan review; and $55.00 per hour for other building official functions other than the above.
The Interlocal Agreement shall remain in effect until December 31, 2020. Either party may terminate the agreement without cause after providing thirty (30) days written notice.
The proposed Interlocal Agreement is being considered by the City of High Springs City Commission during its Feb. 13, 2020 City Commission meeting. |
