I am writing about permit calculations. I am adding a garage door to an existing enclosed carport. The lumber was approximately $200 and the garage door $500, for 1 total of $700. I was told the job was based on the square footage and value of the carport, so the job value was $3,000. A year or so ago, I refurbished the carport, and paid for the value of the structure at that time. The clerk at Permits said each time you do something requiring a permit, tl�e project is considered a new oue; past per.•mits don't wunt and each perm+t is based on the total value of the structure to calculate permit costs. This is an interesting concept. If this stands to reason, then if I put in a new frontdoor to my house, the square footage and the house's value H�ould be taken into account for the pern�it cost? How does this make sense? I asked her who created the fee structure and shP said the Cit}' Council. I would like to speak with my Cit!� Councilmember about the�e charges. Thank you for your lime. nnnc
