Council adopts roofing-permit fee changes on third reading
Summary
Torrington adopted an ordinance amending municipal code section on roofing permit fees on third reading, clarifying fee schedule references to the International Residential Code and deleting legacy permit language; council approved unanimously by voice vote.
The Torrington City Council approved on third reading an ordinance amending the municipal code section that sets roofing permit fees. Mr. Addington read the ordinance title for the record; staff explained that the fee schedule is referenced from the International Residential Code (the fee table is placed in the residential code appendix) and that the ordinance clarifies contractor-license and permit wording.
Mister Estes reviewed the specific changes, saying the amendments simplify permitting for common residential work (flat fees for simple items such as fences and a streamlined approach for hail-related repairs). Council members asked whether permit language had been removed or altered; Estes confirmed deletions and clarifications in the fee table. No public comments were offered on the ordinance during the meeting.
Councilman Victorin moved to approve the ordinance on third reading; Councilman Warren seconded and the council adopted the ordinance by voice vote with no recorded nays. The ordinance will be placed into the Torrington municipal code as amended.
