Bel Air to move commercial permitting to county systems under renewed service agreement
Summary
Chris told commissioners a renewed agreement will move Bel Air's commercial permitting and inspections into county systems while Bel Air retains residential inspections; fees for commercial permitting will flow through county systems with a portion returned to Bel Air for work it continues to perform.
Chris, who presented the item, described a service agreement with Bel Air that would shift commercial permitting and inspections to county systems while Bel Air retains some residential inspection responsibilities. The arrangement will make the county responsible for commercial plan review and permitting operations and return a portion of fees to Bel Air for work the city continues to perform.
Chris said Bel Air already requires contractors to license with the county and that the renewed arrangement will integrate Bel Air's commercial permits with county processes. "We back them up on commercial plan review, and we back them up on inspections," Chris said. The county will handle the bulk of permitting functions while assigning fees and portions back to Bel Air where appropriate; staff agreed to provide an outline of relationships with other cities in the county on request.
