The Assistant County Attorney reviewed the notice. Chuck Cunliffe reviewed each amendment as follows: 1) Consider raising fees for electrical permits. The Planning Commission recommended this request be approved. Mr. Huffman noted this amendment would bring Weld County' s fees up to the state level. Commissioner Steinmark made a motion to approve the amendment to Sec. 30. 8. 3 of the WC Building Code, effective Jan. 1, 1982 . Commissioner Martin seconded the motion. Mr. Anson questioned why the fees are being raised. Mr. Cunliffp stated that previously the costs exceeded the revenue. The motion carried by the following ,'ote: Commissioners Kirby, Martin, Steinmark and Chairman Carlson vote aye. Commissioner Carlson voted nay. 2) Revising plan check fees. Mr. Cunliffestated the Planning Commission recommends this request be approved. Commissioner Carlson stated he had received reports from his constituents that the present fee is an exorbitant amount. This amendment would lower the fees and bring them more in line with the actual costs of the service. Commissioner Carlson made a motion to approve the amendment to Sec. 30. 8 . 1. 3 to the Weld County Building Code, to more nearly reflect the actual cost for the service. Commissioner Kirby seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. 3) Notice of lein and Mechanicsof lein notice fee. Mr. Huffman explained that HB 1516 requires the Building Inspection Dept. to give to each holder of a building permit, a notice of the possibility of a mechaninc lein being filed against their property. This amendment would provide for the issuance of said Notice of Lein and the cost of issuing said notice. The Planning Commission recommends adoption. Adopt the 1981 Edition of the National Electric Code. Commissioner Kirby made a motion to adopt the amendments to Secs. 20. 1. 3, 30. 20 and 30. 8. 5. 1 to the Weld County Building Code.

The Planning Commission recommends this request be approved. The Board questioned why the need to differentiate between in and out of mobile home parks.
