GENERAL PROVISIONS
§ 150.01 BUILDING, ZONING, AND ELECTRIC PERMIT FEES; BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING FEES; FINES.
   (A)   Fees adopted by reference. The city hereby adopts by reference herein and attached to the ordinance codified herein in as if fully set forth herein the Schedule of Fees dated January 2011, as recommended by the Northern Kentucky Area Planning Commission (NKAPC) for the processing and issuance of zoning permits, building permits, electric permits, Board of Adjustment hearing fees, and fines for violations of these life safety codes when a violation of them has been classified as a civil offense.
   (B)   Fees to be increased annually. In order for the schedule of fees to continue to reflect the increasing inflationary costs of administration of the above programs, the fees shall, on an annual basis, be adjusted by the NKAPC and reviewed by the City Treasurer to reflect any increase that would be necessary with the conventional application of the Consumer Price Index as promulgated by the Kentucky Office for Local Government to these fees. Based upon this calculation the fees shall be increased annually and this Schedule of Fees shall be so amended by operation of this provision.
