Public Works committee reviews road acceptance, $150 road-cut fee, school design contract and building-code update
Summary
The Public Works and Zoning committee reviewed several items: adding two subdivision streets to the county system, a design contract for Howard School not to exceed $803,475, a $150-per-cut road-cut permit fee for utilities and contractors, and a resolution to adopt the International Building Code 2018; formal votes were not recorded.
During the Public Works and Zoning portion of the meeting, committee members reviewed multiple infrastructure and code items.
Resolution 1125-24 would amend the county master list of roads and speed limits to accept Canopy Circle and Longleaf Court into the county road inventory and set speed limits. Committee deferred final action.
Resolution 1125-25 would authorize the county mayor to execute a contract with Franklin Associates Architects Inc. for design of the Howard School indoor sports practice facility (including HVAC, theater and fencing improvements) for an amount not to exceed $803,475. Committee discussion acknowledged the scope and fee and deferred further action.
Resolution 1125-26 proposes to add a road-cut fee to section 3(b) of the highway department fees to permit and track utility or contractor cuts into county roads. Highway staff (S3) explained the fee “is a $150” and that it applies per cut; staff said the fee covers inspection and restoration oversight rather than a per-foot charge.
Resolution 1125-27 would amend county code by reference to adopt the 2018 International Building Code published by the International Code Council for Hamilton County. Committee voiced no questions and concluded committee business. The transcript does not record final votes on these items during this session.
