Re: Proposed Fee Schedule changes
As you know, the City’s planning & zoning related fees have not been updated since 2014. In
comparing the existing Lathrup Village Fee Schedule to the most recent Giffels Webster fee
schedule, it is clear that the City has been subsidizing the cost of development and incurring a
loss for many years.
On the following page is a chart detailing the proposed Planning & Zoning Fees. While these
are significant increases, they are pass-through costs. With the exception of lot splits and
engineering review, all fees have increased to align with the fees charged to the City by our
consultants. It should be noted that the Commercial Site Plan Review fee includes two (2)
reviews. In my experience, applicants typically need two (2) reviews before the site plans are
ready for official consideration by the Planning Commission.
There are also a few new fees being proposed including Planned Unit Development,
Administrative Review, and Extra Pre-Application Meeting. As it relates to the latter, I believe
that it is important for the City to offer one (1) complimentary pre-application meeting to
businesses seeking to establish themselves in Lathrup Village. If an applicant wishes to have
additional meetings, then the “Extra Pre-Application Meeting” fee would apply.
Finally, the proposed fee schedule differentiates between the levels of variance types. These
fees also include the typical costs associated with publishing the required public hearing
notices.

Building Permit Fees
CONSTRUCTION COST SCHEDULE
The International Code Council square foot construction cost table is to be used with the City of Lathrup Village
Building Permit and Plan Review Fee Schedules for computation of total cost of construction improvement.
The building permit and plan review fees are based on the estimated construction value as calculated in
accordance with the International Code Council’s square foot construction code table (gross area x sq. ft.
construction cost). The most current (BVD) Building Valuation Data Table in effect on July 1st of each year at
the (ICC) International Code Council web site (www.iccsafe.org/) will be the table utilized for present and future
calculations. ICC BVD outlines the base cost per square foot for any given Use/Group/Type of construction
combination. These figures are not intended to reflect actual cost of construction, but are used as a basis for
determination of fees related to services rendered for projects.
Projects where it is not feasible to determine the construction value using the BVD Table will have the
construction value set by the Building Official. The Building Officials decision may be based on executed
contracts, the BVD Table, other similar projects or other engineer or architects estimates. The Building Officials
decision will be final.
Application fee non-refundable $50.00
Contractor registration fee $25.00
Re- Inspection fee $40.00
