Jennifer Oftelie Weld County Budget Manager 1150 O Street Greeley, CO 80631 Direct : 970 - 400 - 4202 jofteti_e@weld . gov • 066D Proposed Changes : • Increase base fee from $ 12 , 500 to $ 15 , 000 • Increase amendment fee from $ 300 to $ 1 , 000 o Add an additional $ 500 for amendments requiring a hearing Rationale : 1 . Inflation and Cost of Living Adjustments Over the past decade , Weld County has experienced sustained inflationary pressures . The Consumer Price Index ( CPI ) has increased by approximately 59 % since 2015 , equating to an average annual inflation rate of 4 . 36 % . This demonstrates that current fees have not kept pace with the real cost of providing administrative services . The chart below illustrates CPI growth over the last 10 years , underscoring the need for adjustment . 2 . Administrative Costs and Complexity of Review Recent updates to the Weld County Code have increased the administrative workload associated with project reviews . Because amendments are no longer required for equipment additions unless substantial impacts or nuisances are identified , each review now demands a more comprehensive evaluation to determine applicability . When amendments are submitted , the complexity of these reviews requires additional staff time and resources . Furthermore , with new notice requirements and the need to align processes with grading permits , OGED has taken on a more active and integrated role in managing permits following the issuance of the 1041 WOGLA . 3 . Equity in Cost Recovery Current fees have remained stagnant despite these increased costs . Adjusting fees ensures fairness and helps offset administrative burdens without disproportionately impacting other county services . The proposed changes align with cost recovery principles while ensuring sustainable service delivery . 4 . Strategic Benefit to Weld County These fee adjustments will allow Weld County to maintain robust oversight without compromising efficiency or quality of service . They will ensure sufficient resources are available for careful review of applications and amendments , protect public interest , and safeguard environmental and community welfare . Conclusion : The proposed increases are modest when compared to the cumulative impact of inflation and the increased administrative effort required by recent code changes . These adjustments are justified to ensure Weld County continues to deliver high - quality , transparent , and responsible governance .

COUNTY , CO Date . October 2 , 2025 Re : Fee update ordinance , Planning and Building Fees and Impact Fees ( Appendix 5 - J , 5 - K , and 5 - N ) The Board held a worksession with staff on August 19 , 2025 , and the consultant for the study of the Department of Planning Services ' fees , Jesse Myott of BerryDunn , presented a draft of the firm ' s report , which accompanies this memo . The study did not include the impact fees found in Appendix 5 - N , but this memo covers the annual revision of those fees as well . Based largely on the projected expenses of DPS and the declining percentage of those expenses that are recouped from application fees , the study recommended that the fees on Appendix 5 - J and 5 - K be increased by about 10 - 25 % . Several of the fees have not been increased since at least 2012 . Appendix 5 - J , Planning Land Use Application Fees For both Appendix 5 - J ( Planning Land Use Application Fees ) and Appendix 5 - K ( Building Permit Fees ) , staff proposes to insert the following language at the top of the list of fees : Inflation adjustment . The Board of County Commissioners shall annually consider adjusting the following fee amounts by the rate of inflation . The rate of inflation shall mean the percentage change from the prior calendar year in the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics ' Consumer Price Index for Denver - Aurora - Lakewood , all items , all urban consumers ( CPI - U , ) , or its successor index . This language is similar to that found in Section 20 - 1 - 60 regarding impact fees ( more on those below ) . In addition to analyzing department expenses and revenue from fees , BerryDunn also did a comparison of fees looking at Boulder County , Adams County , Larimer County , Douglas County , Greeley , Fort Collins , Boulder , and the City and County of Broomfield . Comparing land use application fees is very difficult because jurisdictions use different terminology and sometimes a process with the same name in two different jurisdictions can actually be two very different processes . Also , some of the jurisdictions add an hourly rate to their base fee . The table below shows a few of the findings for land use application fees and the wide variation in the comparison jurisdictions : Case Type Lowest Highest Weld County ( current ) Weld County ( proposed ) ( Weld County ) Fee Fee Use by Special $ 500 $ 6 , 962 $ 2 , 500 $ 3 , 000 Review Page 1 Change of $ 1 , 625 $ 3 , 200 $ 3 , 000 $ 3 , 000 Zone Site Plan $ 1 , 854 $ 4 , 202 $ 1 , 300 - $ 5 , 000 depending $ 1 , 500 - $ 6 , 000 depending Review on the size of the building on the size of the building Zoning $ 25 $ 150 $ 50 $ 100 Verification Minor $ 250 $ 13 , 800 $ 4 , 000 $ 4 , 300 Subdivision A few other things to note regarding Appendix 5 - J : 1 . Certain fees are shown as deleted , based on the assumption that Ordinance 2025 - 1 1 will be approved by the Board . If that ordinance is not adopted prior to the fee update ordinance , we would need to include these fees . 2 . Staff is recommending lowering the fee for Non - 1041 Major Facilities of Public Utilities USRs to be the same as other USRs because we anticipate proposing that the regulations on those submittals be changed to be the same as a regular USR . That potential change would take place with a future ordinance , but staff is comfortable with lowering the fee now . 3 . Staff recommends having two separate fees for Flood Hazard Development Permits . The standard fee would be $ 300 , but for the complicated cases that require extra analysis it would be $ 750 . This includes cases that require changing a federal floodplain map ( LOMR ) , for example . 4 . For Resubdivisions , current fees are $ 1 , 000 where no new lots are being created and $ 2 , 000 where a lot is being split into multiple lots . Staff proposes to change this fee to $ 550 where the Resubdivision is for the purpose of merging existing lots together ( typically narrow historic townsite lots ) , $ 1 , 100 where no right - of - way ( ROW ) is requested to be vacated , and $ 2 , 200 where the applicant includes vacation of ROW . Resubdivisions where no ROW is vacated are approved administratively , whereas vacations of ROW must be approved by the Board . BerryDunn estimates the increases to the fees on Appendix 5 - J could result in approximately $ 150 , 000 in additional annual revenue by 2029 and a cost recovery of approximately 7 . 4 % of expenses , down from 10 % for 2023 , but up from a projected 5 . 2 % for 2029 without fee increases . Appendix 5 - K , Building Permit Fees Comparing building permit fees among the other jurisdictions is more apples - to - apples than land use application fees , though there is still a wide range : Fee Type Lowest Fee Highest Fee Weld County Weld County ( current ) ( proposed ) Hourly Rate $ 47 . 00 $ 155 . 00 $ 52 . 00 $ 80 . 00 Building Permit $ 69 . 00 for first $ 93 . 21 for 1st $ 62 . 25 for first $ 69 . 00 for first for $ 2 , 001 - $ 2 , 000 + $ 11 . 00 $ 2 , 000 + $ 17 . 97 $ 2 , 000 + $ 12 . 50 $ 2 , 000 + $ 13 . 00 $ 25 , 000 Project for each for each for each for each additional $ 1 , 000 additional $ 1 , 000 additional $ 1 , 000 additional $ 1 , 000 Page 2 Building Permit $ 993 . 75 + $ 5 . 60 $ 1 , 365 . 37 + $ 7 . 13 $ 887 . 25 + $ 5 . 00 $ 1 , 027 . 00 + $ 7 . 00 for $ 100 , 001 - for each for each for each for each $ 500 , 000 Project additional $ 1 , 000 additional $ 1 , 000 additional $ 1 , 000 additional $ 1 , 000 over $ 100 , 000 over $ 100 , 000 over $ 100 , 000 over $ 100 , 000 For this update staff proposes to move the valuation table to be the first table of the appendix . The valuation is needed to determine the required fees . This valuation table has not been updated since 2016 . BerryDunn estimates the increases to the fees on Appendix 5 - K could result in approximately $ 450 , 000 in additional annual revenue by 2029 and a cost recovery of approximately 96 . 6 % of expenses , down from 143 . 3 % for 2023 , but up from a projected 81 . 3 % for 2029 without fee increases . Overall , for the Department as a whole , BerryDunn estimates the projected annual revenue of $ 600 , 000 by 2029 would provide a cost recovery of approximately 33 . 8 % , lower than the estimate of 50 . 1 % for 2023 , but up from a projected 27 . 8 % without fee increases . Appendix 5 - N , Impact Fees For the Road Impact Fees , we are in year five of a six - year plan the Board decided on in 2021 : 6 Year Implementation Plan for Road Impact Fees Land Use Type Unit 2022 Fee 2023 Fee 2024 Fee 2025 Fee 2026 Fee 2027 Fee Single - Family Dwelling $ 2 , 885 $ 3 , 114 $ 3 , 341 $ 3 , 567 $ 3 , 794 $ 4 , 021 detached Multi - Family Dwelling $ 1 , 972 $ 2 , 202 $ 2 , 431 $ 2 , 659 $ 2 , 888 $ 3 , 117 Mobile home park Pad $ 1718 $ 1 , 802 $ 1 , 884 $ 1 , 966 $ 2 , 049 $ 2 , 131 Hotel / Motel Room $ 1710 $ 1 , 884 $ 2 , 056 $ 2 , 229 $ 2 , 401 $ 2 , 573 Shopping center / 1 , 000 sq . ft . $ 4025 $ 4 , 359 $ 4 , 690 $ 5 , 022 $ 5 , 353 $ 5 , 685 Commercial • Office 1 , 000 sq . ft . $ 2609 $ 2 , 782 $ 2 , 955 $ 3 , 127 $ 3 , 299 $ 3 , 471 Institutional / 1 , 000 sq . ft . $ 1314 $ 1 , 366 $ 1 , 417 $ 1 , 469 $ 1 , 520 $ 1 , 572 quasi - public Manufacturing / 1 , 000 sq . ft . $ 2443 $ 2 , 474 $ 2 , 503 $ 2 , 532 $ 2 , 561 $ 2 , 590 Industrial Warehouse 1 , 000 sq . ft . $ 1174 $ 1 , 122 $ 1 , 069 $ 1 , 016 $ 963 $ 910 Mini - warehouse 1 , 000 sq . ft . $ 557 $ 604 $ 651 $ 698 $ 745 $ 792 Agricultural / 1 , 000 sq . ft . $ 861 $ 942 $ 1 , 024 $ 1 , 105 $ 1 , 186 $ 1 , 267 Commercial Note that it was decided the Road Impact Fee for warehouses should decrease over time rather than increase like the other categories . For the Facilities Impact Fee , the CPI - U inflation figure for July 2024 to July 2025 for the Denver - Aurora - Lakewood area provided by the U . S . Bureau of Labor Statistics was 2 . 1 % . This figure was used to adjust these impact fees for 2026 . ( It was 1 . 9 % for July 2023 to July 2024 . ) The Drainage Impact Fee is currently $ 0 . 21 per square foot of impervious cover . Increasing the fee to $ 0 . 22 would be a 4 . 76 % increase . Staff recommends this increase because this fee wasn ' t changed last year . Page 3 Revision to Section 23 - 2 - 930 , Hazardous Waste Disposal Fee Lastly , staff is proposing some cleanup regarding the note at the bottom of Appendix 5 - J , which pertains to Solid Waste Disposal Site Fees , and a similar provision in Section 23 - 2 - 930 of Division 9 , Fees , in Chapter 23 , Article II , regarding Hazardous Waste Disposal Site Fees . Both of these fees may be refunded by the Board depending on the amount of staff time the application review entails . The ordinance would consolidate both of these into Section 23 - 2 - 930 and just have 5 - J refer to that section . The revisions would also add a deadline for the applicant to request a refund . Please see the draft changes for more information .

For 2 & 3 of your email : Esther will have to provide input on your technical changes . I don ' t see any issues , but she is much more in tune with what those changes may also impact . For # 4 , can you submit all the changes you have ready , and when I give them to the board next week , we can see if they want a work session ? I would love a memo because I am simply requesting the changes , without really understanding the ` why ' they are being requested .

The focus of the project is reviewing all revenue generated from user fees and charges for planning application intake / review , building permit issuance , inspections , and all other services related to entitlement , planning , development , and building permitting under Chapter 5 of the Weld County Code . The study also includes identified expenses associated with providing all DPS services . The study includes a review of DPS service delivery 1 When DPS and / or Department is referenced , it includes applicable planning and zoning and building permitting and inspection services . Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study - Final 1September 24 , 2025 3 BerryDunn 4vEum.for fiscal year ( FY ) 2023 , FY 2024 , and FY 2025 , as well as projections for FY 2026 — FY 2029 . The study projects the full cost of providing entitlement , permitting , and inspection services related to applicable development activity throughout the County . The service review examined revenue and expense projections and expected service delivery offerings at estimated and / or historical levels ( level of service [ LoS ] ) . Based on expense projections and expected service offerings , BerryDunn prepared revenue and expense projections , cost recovery targets , and recommended fee levels for core service categories estimated to help increase revenue generation . These analyses and projections will allow the County to make informed policy decisions at the aggregate level , as well as on each application , permit , and service , regarding fee levels and revenue generation in the future . The results offer a full - cost determination for DPS core service categories . Establishing a full - cost baseline enables the development of more detailed revenue and expenditure forecasts , which can serve as a foundation for assessing the level of fees necessary to meet cost recovery targets ; sustain current levels of service ; and fund goals , initiatives , and enhanced service delivery in the future . The final project report includes recommendations based on objective analytical findings ; institutional knowledge ; and considerations related to best practices in policy , process , LoS , and funding . The analysis also identifies possible barriers and challenges to implementing recommendations and considerations , where applicable . 1 . 3 Key Outcomes and Findings Until now , DPS had not undertaken a formal CoS ( Cost of Service ) analysis related to development services in recent years . Nonetheless , DPS reviews select fees and charges annually , making strategic adjustments where needed ; however , despite extraordinary development activity taking place throughout the County , DPS has become increasingly aware that the cost of providing fee - applicable services might be outpacing the revenue generated by providing those services in certain core service categories . For these reasons , DPS is interested in understanding the full cost of providing fee - related services and considering recommendations that might better align fee levels to reflect current and future costs . The report outlines key insights regarding cost recovery levels across applicable core service areas . These levels are based on the operational , personnel , programs , and supply costs associated with providing development services as well as the administrative support and indirect expense incurred to support service delivery . The analysis also considers past performance , demand , and LoS metrics and historical cost recovery levels , as well as DPS service delivery framework . L3 . 1 Key Outcomes • Cost Recovery Baselines and Targets : The analysis led to the development of current cost recovery baselines and future targets for core service categories . These targets help ensure that fees will cover the appropriate portion of increasing cost of service delivery over the next few years as well as fund strategic goals and initiatives . Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study — Final 1 September 24 , 2025 4 BerryDunn m « C � , Y ( _t ) • Revenue and Expenses Projections : The analysis resulted in detailed projections of future revenues and expenses for FY 2026 — FY 2029 , which will assist in forward - planning related to DPS budget development and fee level setting . • Data - Driven Policy Decisions : The analysis provides DPS leadership , County leadership , and County officials with data to inform their decision - making on adjusting fees , helping to ensure that any future changes are based on the actual cost - of- service delivery and DPS ' growth trajectory . • Organizational Structure and Service Review : The analysis also included an examination of DPS ' personnel allocations . This review will help inform future forecasting efforts and support the County ' s long - term financial sustainability . • Proposed Fee Schedule Updates : The analysis resulted in the development of two updated fee schedules related to DPS service delivery . The updated fee schedules reflect adjustments which are estimated to increase revenue generation and cost recovery baselines in future FYs to support the total cost - of- service delivery . 1 . 3 . 2 Key Findings2 • The average cost recovery for planning and zoning services FY 2023 — FY 2024 was 8 . 95 % . This means that , historically , DPS has been recovering less than its total cost to provide planning and zoning services through fees and charges . Furthermore , overall total cost recovery has been in decline since 2023 . • By the close of FY 2025 , the projected cost recovery rate for planning and zoning services is expected to decrease to 6 . 9 % . This is mainly attributable to planning application activity remaining stable , with no anticipated substantial growth . Nonetheless , expense pressures are projected to outpace revenue gains in future FYs leading to an overall decrease in cost recovery levels through FY 2029 . This decrease is mainly attributed to : • Increased personnel expenditures : likely due to rising costs of professional staff needed to support service delivery needs . • Increased non - personnel expenditures : likely due to rising costs of professional services , supplies , equipment , etc . • The average cost recovery for building permitting and inspection services FY 2023 - FY 2024 was 125 . 9 % . This means that , historically , DPS has been recovering more than its total cost to provide services through user fees and charges ; however , overall total cost recovery has been in decline since 2023 . 2 Total cost determination includes applicable portions of administrative support services expense and indirect cost reimbursement . Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study — Final September 24 , 2025 5 BerryDunn • By the close of FY 2025 , the projected cost recovery rate for building permitting and inspection services is expected to increase slightly to 109 . 0 % , up from 108 . 4 % in FY 2024 . 3 This increase is mainly attributed to : • Projected increase in fees and charges revenue possibly due to factors like changes in demand or broader geographical development trends and the timing of project initiation and fee collection . • The average cost recovery for all DPS services FY 2023 — FY 2024 was 43 . 5 % . This means that , historically , the DPS has recovered less than its total cost to provide services through user fees and charges . Overall , total cost recovery has been in decline since 2023 . • By the close of FY 2025 , the projected cost recovery rate for all DPS services is expected to decrease to 36 . 8 % . 1 . 4 Summary of Recommended Actions To maintain or increase the cost recovery rate and address the projected decline , the County might need to : • Adjust Fees : Raise or modify fees and charges for applications , permits , and services to increase revenue to cover increasing operational and service delivery costs . • Prioritize Cost Management : Explore ways to reduce non - personnel expenditures or make more efficient use of resources to help prevent overreliance on fee increases . • Monitor Revenue Streams : DPS staff should also take care to monitor local indicators related to economic development trends and demand to help assure current service levels are maintained and that the Department is well - positioned to scale services in response to growing customer needs and the County ' s growth trajectory . The continued decrease in projected cost recovery rates , coupled with the anticipated rise in total service delivery costs through FY 2029 , indicates that DPS is facing growing challenges with funding its services through fees and charges . By aligning fees and charges with current industry - standard model fee schedules and methodologies where appropriate and considering strategic adjustments , DPS can move toward meeting its cost recovery targets and work toward assuring financial sustainability and service delivery continuity in the future . To arrive at accurate and realistic cost recovery and revenue growth targets for DPS , BerryDunn , based on the objective analysis performed and known assumptions , developed three scenarios below ( Table 1 . 2 ) related to cost recovery targets and revenue growth . These scenarios provide an additional framework to be considered when assessing how resources should be allocated along with other budgetary development efforts and needs . In developing these scenarios , BerryDunn has provided DPS a foundation to discuss uncertainty , align strategic efforts , and make informed decisions that will support the County ' s long - term growth 3 Building permitting data for FY23 was excluded from this bullet , as it appeared to be an outlier likely influenced by delayed permit activity from FY22 related to the COVID - 19 pandemic . Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study — Final 1 September 24 , 2025 6 y BerryDunn trajectory . DPS fees and charges for services may need to be adjusted as proposed to meet the overall cost recovery target ranges presented in Table 1 . 2 below .

The alignment of cost recovery targets with DPS ' service delivery framework will reflect both fiscal realities and the DPS ' continued mission to serve County residents and the development community efficiently and effectively . By continuing this approach , staff will have a structured method for considering and setting appropriate fees and charges , identifying additional revenue sources , or additional support , and allocating resources efficiently . Linking cost recovery targets with financial forecasting will also enable staff to calculate and set fees and charges that contribute to meeting overall cost recovery goals . While cost recovery criteria are not absolute in all situations , they are intended to guide pricing decisions and stimulate important conversations about service delivery and cost recovery . The framework serves as a tool for making thoughtful fee adjustments to achieve an appropriate and sustainable funding model . To assist leadership and staff in identifying appropriate fee adjustment levels for DPS services , BerryDunn has compiled the following table , which outlines estimated revenue increase targets through FY 2028 across all DPS core service areas .

Though future planning , building , and development service demands and trends throughout the County and region cannot be known for certain , the proposed cost recovery ranges are projected to allow for revenue to be generated each FY based on known core expense assumptions and current demand trends to meet desired cost recovery levels . Should demand for services decrease , increase , or LoS provided change , additional fee and charges adjustments may need to be made if cost recovery targets are to be met . The above cost recovery ranges and fee adjustment recommendations represent all DPS permit and service types ; however , individual fee levels may need to be adjusted based on factors such as the specific service type , demand , policy , strategic alignment , and the resources required ( personnel and non - personnel ) , as well as to support countywide goals and initiatives . BerryDunn recommends that the DPS conduct an annual fundamental CoS analysis and perform a third - party cost recovery and fee study every three to five years or whenever there are significant changes in service demand , organizational structure , key business processes , or budgetary considerations . The DPS should also review and adjust select fees and charges annually , as needed .

These costs were identified in applicable DPS operating budgets and financial reports . Capital costs were excluded from total cost and cost recovery calculations . Furthermore , BerryDunn used the cost model to perform forecasting scenarios to assess the impact of recommended fee adjustments for permits and services between FY 2026 and FY 2029 based on known assumptions and historical performance . After an initial project - planning call with the County project management team ( PMT ) to clarify goals and objectives , project constraints , and appropriately refine dates and / or tasks , BerryDunn requested and reviewed documentation and data to better understand the current DPS fiscal environment . BerryDunn conducted a project kickoff meeting and scheduled follow - up meetings with subject matter experts ( SMEs ) involved in the CoS study . BerryDunn also followed up with County staff on multiple occasions to understand the financial and level of service data and information that was provided . These meetings and conversations discussed the types of services provided , the revenue generated , and the associated expenses incurred to provide those services . BerryDunn worked with staff to develop specific revenue and expense forecasts associated with the current fees and charges and what could reasonably be expected from future fees and charges , for which cost recovery ranges were calculated and their subsequent fiscal impact projected . These were analyzed on a core service category , service type , and , in some cases , by specific permit or service by which known costs were assigned accordingly . Other charges , such as penalties , fines , and State of Colorado ( State ) - mandated fees , were excluded from the Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study — Final September 24 , 2025 9 kj) BerryDunn AVELManalysis . BerryDunn used an activity - based costing methodology to provide a detailed and accurate analysis of the cost associated with delivering services . This approach helps break down the various components involved in service delivery , from entitlement to permit issuance to final inspection , working to ensure a clear understanding of the resources required at each step . This methodology relies on financial and program data provided by County SMEs and validated through checkpoints built into the developed CoS model . BerryDunn employed a standard cost - accounting methodology to identify and assign expected costs for the project . This methodology leveraged expected expenses primarily drawn from the FY 2023 — FY 2025 operating budget segments and financial reports to determine historical and current full cost allocations . In addition , projected operational expenses from the FY 2024 and FY 2025 operating budgets and known assumptions were used to calculate full cost allocations for future fiscal years . Where detailed or precise data was unavailable , BerryDunn relied on institutional knowledge from County SMEs to develop cost assignment assumptions . These assumptions included proportional expense assignments based on weighted averages and other established analytical techniques to help ensure an accurate representation of costs . The analysis also included an examination of revenues for FY 2023 and FY 2024 ( actual , unaudited ) associated with the provision of all services . These revenue figures reflect the current fees and charge structure , as well as projected revenue for future service delivery , which was verified by County SMEs . BerryDunn reviewed the findings with staff multiple times to help ensure accuracy , identify any necessary revisions , incorporate feedback , and make any additions or deletions before finalizing the deliverables . Finally , helping to ensure that all DPS services remain accessible from a cost perspective , the BerryDunn project team identified and prioritized necessary changes to fee calculation methodologies and fee schedule structure , cost recovery ranges and targets , and cost allocations , as well as outlined any additional , applicable areas where improvements should be considered . BerryDunn engaged internal and external stakeholders to review findings , priorities , and recommendations with the County project team . The purpose of these engagement sessions / presentations was to build momentum and support for the success of proposed cost recovery goals , proposed fees and charges adjustments , and additional future DPS planning initiatives .

This resulted in a cost recovery of 10 . 0 % 1 meaning the Department recovered significantly less than its service costs . 4 Total cost determination includes applicable portions of administrative support services expense and indirect cost reimbursement . Planning . Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study — Final September 24 , 2025 11 BerryDunn . • FY 2024 : Expenses for service delivery rose to $ 4 , 436 , 981 with the revenue assigned to service delivery decreasing to $ 350 , 790 . The division recovered 7 . 9 % of its service costs , a 2 . 1 % decrease from the previous FY . • FY 2025 : Expected expenses for services are projected to rise to $ 5 , 068 , 553 , with projected revenue at $ 350 , 000 . The cost recovery level is estimated to be 6 . 9 % of total service costs , a 1 . 0 % decrease from the previous FY . Additionally , revenue and expense forecasts were developed for FY 2026 — FY 2029 to reflect the projected cost recovery environment without the adoption of proposed fees and charges increases and with the adoption of proposed fees and charges increases . These forecasts reflect the division ' s current revenue and expense environment and historical and projected levels of service while incorporating known assumptions . The following table highlights the division ' s projected revenue expenditures and estimated cost recovery levels should the proposed fees and charges not be adopted as proposed .

To that end , several factors should be considered when assessing the current cost recovery levels and estimated future cost recovery level targets . The division has experienced increased expenditures for some service areas related to both personnel and non - personnel segments over the past few FYs a trend likely to continue . Revenue growth across all core service segments has not kept pace with expenditures increases , with revenue in some core service categories declining year - over - year . Furthermore , due to the unique nature of planning and zoning services , they typically operate in a low - cost recovery environment . Unlike functions such as building permitting and inspections , many activities in planning and zoning services do not progress to stages where fees can be collected . For these reasons , BerryDunn recommends the County consider adopting proposed fees in FY 2026 ( proposed fees and charges are outlined in detail in Appendix B ) . By doing so , fee increases for services will generate additional revenue to offset increased expenditures , helping to fund enhanced service delivery functions , and improve service delivery quality and timeliness .

Without major operational adjustments to the service delivery structure , sustained expenditure reductions , year - over - year major fee increases , or without major macroeconomic / development activity impacts , the current proposed fees and charges environment is not expansive enough to generate revenue levels that consistently sustain operations at cost recovery levels greater than 8 . 0 % . This is not necessarily a negative outcome . Rather , this allows for policy decisions to be made regarding increased revenue generation by way of fees and charges increases for core service segments in the future , if desired . 3 . 3 Building Permitting and Inspections Division Cost - of - Service Analysis5 BerryDunn identified the revenue generated from the division ' s existing fees and charges structure across FY 2023 — 2025 ( budget ) and developed projections for FY 2026 — FY 2029 as well as the expenses incurred and expected to provide services . • FY 2023 : The division ' s full cost to provide services amounted to $ 1 , 789 , 118 while the revenue generated was $ 2 , 566 , 275 . This resulted in a cost recovery of 143 . 4 % , meaning the division recovered more than its service costs due to strong demand and a high volume of services provided . • FY 2024 : Expenses for service delivery rose to $ 1 , 800 , 254 with the revenue assigned to service delivery decreasing to $ 1 , 951 , 487 .

To that end , several factors should be considered when assessing the current cost recovery levels and estimated future cost recovery level targets . Revenues exceeding the cost to provide services is most likely the result of high demand for services and the high volume of services delivered due to extraordinary development activity occurring throughout the County and region . Additionally , the division has experienced increased expenditures for some service areas related to both personnel and non - personnel segments over the past few FYs a trend likely to continue . Revenue growth across all core service segments has not kept pace with expenditures increases , with revenue in some core service categories declining year - over - year . Furthermore , because of the unique nature of services the division provides , revenues are cyclical , tend to fluctuate annually , and are dependent on macroeconomic activity , making forecasting increased revenue generation difficult for certain service segments . For these reasons , BerryDunn recommends the County consider adopting proposed fees in FY 2026 ( proposed fees and charges are outlined in detail in Appendix A ) . By doing so , fee increases for permits and services will generate additional revenue to offset increased expenditures , helping to fund enhanced service delivery functions , and improve service delivery Planning , Zoning . and Building Permit Fee Study — Final l September 24 .. 2025 14 BerryDunnwFtrcr.14an 0 quality and timeliness .

Even upon adoption of these fees and charges , the division will have an opportunity to assess revenue generation levels along with revenue requirements annually and make additional fee adjustments if warranted . Furthermore , revenue generated from the adoption of proposed fees and charges will help cover a significant portion of the estimated annual full cost to operate the division and to increase levels of service in the future . Due to the u nique nature of division services , revenues are cyclical , tend to fluctuate annually , and are o ften influenced by macroeconomic activity . For these reasons , BerryDunn also recommends conducting an annual CoS analysis as part of the budget development process and considering select fee adjustments as necessary . 3 . 4 Summary of CoS Analysis Findings Several factors need to be considered when assessing the current cost recovery levels and projecting future targets . 1 . Increased Expenditures : DPS has seen rising costs over the past three fiscal years across both personnel and non - personnel categories for various services delivered . This trend is expected to continue , which could place additional strain on cost recovery efforts in future fiscal years . 2 . Revenue Growth Challenges : In addition to the rising costs , revenue growth across all core services is not expected to keep pace with historical trends . In fact , some core service categories may experience a decline in revenue year - over - year . 3 . Specific Accounting Practices : Counties may track and post revenue as well as account for service costs differently and to varying levels of detail . These practices can affect how service costs are tracked , managed , and calculated and how revenue is allocated to services . 4 . Revenue Cyclicalsty and Macroeconomic Impact : The revenues for certain services can be cyclical , fluctuating annually and influenced by broader macroeconomic Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study -- Final September 24 , 2025 15 y Y BerryDunn conditions out of the control of DPS . This makes forecasting revenue growth difficult for some services , as external factors can lead to significant variability . Despite these challenges , it remains important for leadership and staff to gain a deeper understanding of which core service categories are likely to be the primary revenue drivers in the future . This insight will aid in making informed decisions to improve financial sustainability . To assist this effort , BerryDunn conducted an analysis of historical planning and zoning volumes for FYs 2018 — 2024 , as well as building permit volumes , associated valuations , and revenue trends across key service categories for FYs 2023 — 2024 . The analysis focused on identifying patterns in workload and cost recovery , providing data - driven insights to support long - term financial sustainability and informed decision - making around future fee adjustments . The charts below outline our findings . The FY 2023 — 2024 permit data show notable shifts in building permit valuations and activity . Overall valuation declined sharply year - over - year : total reported permit valuation fell by roughly one - third , from about $ 233 million in FY 2023 to $ 143 million in FY 2024 . This drop was driven primarily by a sharp decline in the oil - and - gas category ( valuation fell from � $ 65M to — $ 8M ) while many non - residential categories also contracted . In contrast , residential - related valuations trended upward . Electrical permits more than doubled in total value ( from about $ 9 . 2M to $ 23 . 4M ) and furnace / air - conditioning permits roughly tripled ( from � $ 0 . 9M to $ 2 . 2M ) . Residential garages / carports and manufactured - home permit valuations each grew , and the small remaining Accessory Structure valuations held steady . These changes in valuation are drawn directly from historical FY 2023 — 2024 data and form the basis for current estimates and projections . Permit counts by category shifted in mixed ways . The largest category — Plan Reviews Completed — increased from 1 , 423 in FY 2023 to 1 , 725 in FY 2024 , indicating growing demand for this service despite the absence of associated fees . Single - family residential permits also rose modestly . Notably , the " Express " permit category ( a small - volume category ) went from 291 permits to effectively zero . As indicated in the footnotes , very low - volume or no - valuation categories were excluded from the figures on the following pages . Demolition , seasonal , and utility permits ( as well as certificates of occupancy and certain minor review categories ) were removed due to their negligible permit counts or valuation . Likewise , any building permit fee type with a combined total of s51 permits or 5 $ 1 . 1 M valuation across FY 2023 — 2024 was excluded . These exclusions help streamline the charts for clearer analysis and readability . Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study — Final September 24 , 2025 16 NIL A• BerryDunn Jiwa .

In practice , this means the current revenue projections and fee adjustment needs rest on the observed data for example , we treat the drop in oil - and - gas activity as a trend ( absent contrary evidence ) and likewise extend the modest residential growth . This historical grounding is important context for the financial assessment : it underpins why systematic periodic fee adjustments are needed ( to account for such volatility ) and why revenue recovery may lag unless fees are realigned with actual construction activity .

Assure compliance with all applicable federal , State , and local building Building Permitting and codes , regulations , and safety standards and to contribute to the overall Inspection integrity of the built environment . 4 . 2 Fee Level Recommendations 4 . 2 . 1 Planning and Zoning Services BerryDunn recommends the County consider adopting the proposed plan review and planning and zoning services fee levels ( proposed fee schedule attached as Appendix By This proposed fee structure includes a base fee and a variable fee , where applicable to each project application under review . The base fee consists of stages with relatively stable levels of effort regardless of application / service . The variable fee scales to the various components of the project and escalates accordingly , where applicable . Based on historical levels of service , estimated future levels of service , and known assumptions , BerryDunn estimates that $ 150 , 000 of additional revenue could be generated annually by the close of FY 2029 if the fee levels are adopted as proposed . 4 . 2 . 2 Building Permitting and Inspection Services BerryDunn recommends the County consider adopting the proposed building permitting and inspection services fee levels ( proposed fee schedules are attached as Appendix A ) . This proposed fee structure includes a base fee and a variable fee , where applicable to each permit application under review . The base fee consists of stages with relatively stable levels of effort regardless of permit / service . The variable fee scales to size of the project and escalates accordingly . Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study — Final 1September 24 . 2025 23 err BerryDunn : n Based on historical levels of service , estimated future levels of service , and known assumptions , BerryDunn estimates that $ 450 , 000 of additional revenue could be generated annually by the close of FY 2029 if the fee levels are adopted as proposed and development activity remains at projected levels . 4 . 3 Estimates , Forecasts , and Projections Though there is no way to know for certain what construction and development activity will look like in the future throughout the County , the analyses and projections are based on historical service performance , known future expense impacts , and estimated future levels of service . For these reasons , staff should monitor local indicators related to construction and development trends and building permit activity . Staff should continue to track , in detail , the number of applications reviewed , permits issued , and inspections conducted for the most common development services provided . Staff should also continue to assess additional fee adjustments for specific services , as needed , on a FY basis to determine adjustments ' potential impact on revenue generation and to offset applicable costs . The recommended fee levels and subsequent projected revenue gains represent an ambitious four - year plan to increase revenue generation and help keep pace with known expense increases expected in future FYs . In doing so , BerryDunn projects an additional revenue could be realized annually , helping to increase overall cost recovery for core services through FY 2029 . Projections and estimates are based on historical levels of service and known assumptions related to future levels of service . Should annual application / permit/ service volume estimates be less ( or more ) due to changes in development activity , revenue estimates outlined in this report might not reflect actual revenue generation levels , and cost recovery targets may increase or decrease . Furthermore , should fees as proposed lead to a decline in demand for services , revenue estimates and projections may also be impacted , and cost recovery targets may not be met . Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study — Final I September 24 , 2025 24 BerryDunn� Aval) 5 . 0 Addtona I Recommendatons and Considerations This section outlines BerryDunn ' s recommendations and considerations based on the financial analysis , current services environment analysis , and meetings with staff and stakeholders to discuss departments and countywide priorities . 5 . 1 Annual Fee Adjustments BerryDunn recommends that DPS conduct an annual fundamental CoS analysis as part of the budget development process and adjust select fees and charges as needed to align with fiscal requirements and policy initiatives . Furthermore , if larger or complete fee schedule adjustments are necessary , BerryDunn recommends that DPS consider utilizing the Consumer Price Index ( CPI ) preceding 12 - month percentage change metric as published by the U . S . Bureau of Labor Statistics ; the Engineering News Record - Building Cost Index ( ENR - BCI ) published each January , or other trusted , accurate , and justifiable economic indicator of inflation . An additional consideration to reference , are the highly credible and widely adopted resources utilized for fee - setting published by the International Code Council ( ICC ) . Its Building Valuation Data ( BVD ) serves as a nationally recognized benchmark , enabling agencies to substantiate increases in building permit and development - related fees . By reflecting average construction costs across the U . S . , the BVD ensures that fee adjustments are grounded in real - world market conditions and aligned with the actual cost of service delivery , providing a transparent and defensible basis for pricing decisions . Agencies may wish to consider implementing an annual fee adjustment that aligns with the anniversary of the current fee schedule ' s effective date . To ensure transparency and collaboration , any such increase could be subject to mutual agreement between Department and County leadership . Additionally , incorporating a " shall not exceed " percentage cap on annual wholesale fee increases may help mitigate potential impacts to customers and stakeholders , wh . le still allowing for reasonable adjustments over time . 5 . 2 Future Fee Adjustments BerryDunn recommends that DPS conduct a fundamental CoS analysis and perform a third - party cost recovery study every three to five years or whenever there are significant changes in service demand , organizational structure , key business processes , or budgetary considerations . 5 . 3 Personnel Considerations In conjunction with County staff , BerryDunn estimates that additional full - time positions would need to be added to DPS ' personnel count to effectively and efficiently administer and manage and approve the increased volume and complexity of proposed projects . In doing so , the County will improve customer service quality and help to alleviate current " pinch - points , " improving the overall efficiency of service delivery . This exercise was not a formal personnel and staffing level analysis , but rather an analytical Planning , Zoning , and Building Permit Fee Study — Final September 24 , 2025 25 », + lloiKi b BerryDunn 4tvEtsexamination of personnel allocations based on known data and discussions with County staff . Other important elements of the staffing projections and related LoS increases are as follows : • Projected staffing needs are based on both historical and anticipated service levels , including the review of over 285 planning applications annually and the issuance of more than 1 , 800 permits and inspections conducted each year between FY 2023 and FY 2024 . • Any newly approved and funded full - time positions would likely be filled incrementally . Given current labor market conditions , it is anticipated that recruitment and onboarding could take significant time . • As previously noted , potential efficiencies in service delivery and improvements to customer service should be prioritized , given that the anticipated need for additional full - time staff is based on subjective projections . • Any fee increases would be expected to support enhanced service levels , for which additional staffing would likely be necessary to achieve . Nonetheless , the brief overview above can provide valuable insight and might help County leadership with informed decisions related to increased staffing levels needed to administer and manage DPS service delivery . 5 . 4 Self - Sustaining Fund The County could explore the feasibility of establishing a policy and framework to allow DPS to retain the entirety of revenue generation from the building permitting and inspection core service area in a specific FY . This would allow DPS the opportunity to reinvest ( or establish a fund balance for use in future FYs to offset applicable costs incurred ) related growth and / or LoS increases or to help ensure business and service continuity should an unforeseen downturn occur affecting service demand and volume . A common framework for this type of self- sustaining fund is a type of special revenue fund or enterprise fund . A special revenue / enterprise fund is often used by government entities to support activities and programs that assess fee - for - services . Establishing this type of fund involves several key steps , is an interdepartmental effort , and should adhere to any local and State laws / regulations governing the capture , accounting , and use of funds . Should the County consider such a framework , it will be important to identify and have the fund be applicable to only specific services that have the potential to be self - sustaining through user fees . Establishing a special revenue / enterprise fund may enhance DPS ' efficiency and effectiveness of service delivery by promoting self - sustainability and accountability while allowing for reinvestment in strategic initiatives and services to support the County ' s growth trajectory . Planning , Zoning . and Building Permit Fee Study — Final September 24 , 2025 26 lb BerryDunn AWLS 6 . 0 Peer Comparsons Peer comparisons can provide useful insights into how the Department ' s proposed fees and charges environment compares with similar organizations offering similar services . Although the Department ' s operations are unique , the selection of peers for comparison attempts to reflect these unique elements throughout the Weld community as well as the Department ' s unique service delivery structure . To that end , general peer - to - peer fee comparisons should not be the sole criteria considered when assessing the appropriateness of fee levels because there are too many unknowns to make confident , absolute comparisons . Some core unknowns include : • The intended level of cost recovery desired by each peer • What specific costs are included in fee calculations for each peer • When each peer adjusted fees last • What the intended level of service targets are for each peer • Mission and vision of the peer organization • Specific funding / resource levels available to each peer • Strategic initiatives that may require arbitrary fee adjustments to support Nonetheless , a simple fee - to - fee comparison can provide useful insight but really should only be used to consider the " municipal market " for similar services and associated fees , and to assess the " reasonableness " of the Department ' s fees when compared to the peers selected . Basic peer comparison information can also be used to serve as a benchmark to determine how cost effective the County is delivering its services or assess and determine where additional revenue generation may be being missed because of lower fees for similar services . Information was derived from publicly facing fee schedules , budget documents and financial reports and are intended to be a reference , not a true analysis of resources or an absolute reflecting of the exact fee each peer charges each time a specific service in delivered .
