The Board of County Commissioners shall from time to time establish by ordinance fees for the review and approval of development applications, and for the referral of applications to other agencies or entities for review. Fee schedules shall be set forth in the Pitkin County Land Use Application Manual. No application shall be reviewed until the applicable fee has been paid.
(b) Fees for Combined Applications
Fees charged for the processing of application(s) that fall into more than one (1) type of application shall be cumulative. In the event that the fees that result from accumulation are found by the Community Development Director to be excessive in relation to the number of hours it is anticipated to require to process the application(s), the Community Development Department may waive or adjust the accumulation requirement based on the level of County staff effort involved.
(c) Request for Waiver
An applicant may request that the Board reimburse fees for projects serving a public purpose, proposed by a non-profit organization, or in order to dispute the fee charged. All fees must be paid at time of submittal and applicant may request reimbursement.
