Hilliard updates unified fee schedule; adds fee for certified recovery residence applications
Summary
Council adopted resolution 2026‑09 to amend the town’s unified fee schedule to align with recent Florida statute changes, replace value‑based building permit fees with square‑foot fees, and add an application fee for certified recovery residences.
The Town Council adopted resolution 2026‑09 on Aug. 1 to amend the unified fee schedule for water, sewer and building permits to conform to recent changes in Florida law. Staff said building permit fees can no longer be based on total project value and have been converted to square‑foot categories with fees tied to recent averages.
The resolution also adds a fee for certified recovery residence applications — an application tied to ordinance 2026‑04 adopted earlier that evening — and provides fee reductions when private providers are used. Staff indicated the updated fee schedule will be posted on the town website and that this is expected to be the last update until the start of the next year.
Council approved the resolution by motion and voice vote; the transcript records the motion to adopt and the affirmative voice vote.
