Crew, City Manager Department: Building & Code Compliance Short Title: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MIAMI GARDENS, FLORIDA, AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 2009-158-1103, TO INCLUDE FEES FOR THE ISSUANCE OF CONDITIONAL REOCCUPANCY CERTIFICATES; PROVIDING FOR THE ADOPTION OF REPRESENTATIONS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Staff Summary: At September 8, 2009, City Council meeting, a resolution setting the fees for Re‐occupancy Re‐inspection program was approved. During the initial implementation of the program, staff encountered complications with various banks and title companies with respect to the issuance of a “stipulated agreement” as opposed to the issuance of a “conditional re‐occupancy certificate”. In certain instances, banks refused to accept the stipulation agreement, thereby placing the closing of the real estate transaction in jeopardy. In an effort to ensure that the Re‐occupancy Re‐inspection program does not hinder the closing of real estate transactions, a process for the issuance of a “conditional re‐occupancy certificate” was established. Since this process was created after the adoption of the initial fee resolution, it is now necessary to amend the fee resolution to establish a cost for the “conditional re‐occupancy certificate”. Based on ITEM J-2) CONSENT AGENDA RESOLUTION Re-Occupancy Fees 1515 NW 167 Street, Building 5 Suite 200 Miami Gardens, Florida 33169 comparison of surrounding municipal rates staff proposes the fee of $200.00 for the issuance of a Conditional Re‐occupancy Certificate. Proposed Action That the City Council approve the attached amendment to the resolution establishing a fee for the issuance of a conditional re‐occupancy certificate. Attachment None
