THE POTSDAM TOWN COUNCIL VOTED ON TUESDAY TO PASS THE COST OF ST. LAWRENCE COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENT FEES ON TO BUILDING PERMIT APPLICANTS.
THE COUNTY PLANNERS NOW CHARGE FOR REVIEWS, AND HAVE GIVEN ALL MUNICIPALITIES A FEE SCHEDULE. MANY OF THE REVIEWS ARE DONE THROUGH A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING, WHERE THE PROJECT IS SENT BACK FOR LOCAL ACTION. HOWEVER, MUNCIPALITIES ARE REQUIRED BY STATE LAW TO SEND TO THE COUNTY PROJECTS WITHIN 500 FEET OF MAJOR RIGHTS-OF-WAY, WITHIN A CERTAIN DISTANCE OF MUNICIPAL BORDERS, AND OTHER PROJECTS WITH SIGNIFICANCE THE STATE SETS.
TOWN ATTORNEY FRANK CAPPELLO SAYS THE TOWN SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BEAR THE COST, ESPECIALLY IF IT'S MANDATED:
COUNCILMAN MICHAEL ZAGROBELNY SAYS THE TOWN HAS NOT BUDGETED FOR THE PLANNING FEES. THE VOTE BY THE COUNCIL WAS UNANIMOUS.
