Section 5: Schedule of Fees and Charges

This section covers the Council's review of fees and charges, and shows charges from 1 July 2011 to 30 June 2012.

• Go back to the contents page

The Council's Fees and Charges Policy sets out the procedure for an annual review and that the Council will consult on proposed fees and charges for each financial year, as one annual consultation process, unless it is impractical to do so.

In some cases charges are set by statute and cannot be changed and may be listed in this document for completeness. Other fees and charges are delegated to officers and have been included for consultation.

The Council charges for services where a distinct benefit to groups or individuals can be identified, e.g. the benefit to an individual for a resource consent for a subdivision, or the benefit to a sports club for exclusive use of a sports ground. In some cases, the Council charges only a portion of the costs, because there is also a community benefit component. This ensures that charges are fair and reasonable, and that ratepayers do not subsidise those services that have a distinct private benefit. Where practical, the Council endeavours to recover some of the cost of responding to negative actions caused by identified groups or individuals such as excessively loud music or dangerous dogs.

The Fees and Charges Policy sets out the basis for determining fees and charges. It emphasises that the fee or charge should reflect the market rate, but take into account the Council's other policies and Community Outcomes. Specifically the fee or charge:

1. Must have regard to section 101 of the Local Government Act 2002 (Financial Management).
2. Must be consistent with the Community Outcomes for the relevant significant activity as outlined in the Community Plan.
3. Must directly relate to an identifiable private benefit (benefits received by those using the service, as opposed to benefiting the community generally). Cases where the benefit is wholly public good (benefits the community generally, as opposed to benefiting identifiable individuals or groups) should not be funded by fees and charges.
4. Must contribute to sustainable use of Council goods, services or assets.
5. Should be of a similar level to fees or charges for similar Council activities, and/or similar private sector activities, unless there is a valid reason not to do so.
6. Where possible, should include downstream costs or a statement of what further costs may be incurred.
7. Must, where possible, be proportional, i.e. a 10 per cent increase across a group of fees, unless it is unfeasible or there are good policy reasons not to do so.
8. Should not cross subsidise other services unless there is a valid policy reason to do so.
9. Should reflect market rates and/or recovery costs unless there is a valid reason otherwise. Policy reasons not to set a fee or charge at market rates or cost include:

• Legislation requires that no fee or charge be applied.
• Setting at market rate or cost recovery conflicts with another Council policy, Council objective or Community Outcome.
• To ration use of a service or facility.
• Where it is more cost effective not to charge.
• Where the benefits of not charging outweigh the disadvantages.
• Where the market will not tolerate a fee or charge.
• Any other circumstances where a lesser fee or charge, or not charging, will contribute to Community Outcomes.

The fees and charges are set with these considerations in mind.

The charges for Council-owned subsidised housing are not included in the schedule of fees and charges. The charges for these properties are set according to location and type of housing. Targeted rates for sewerage disposal, water supply and refuse collection are located in Section 3 (Financial Plan and Council Activities.

The following schedule of fees and charges are grouped per significant activity. All charges are quoted inclusive of GST at current rates.

Customer Services

The Council building's primary purpose is a meeting venue for Council-related business. It does not usually hire its facilities to the general public as the venue is not set up to be a conference facility. Hirers should be aware that hire involves making security arrangements. As venue hire is restricted to after hours, a Council officer must be present at all times.

Regulatory Services

Subdivision Consents and Associated Processes

Charge out rates

There are two resource consent processing group charge out rates:

1. The administration charge out rate applies to front of house carrying out application/documentation acceptance and support service functions including record keeping and other incidental administrative tasks.
2. The technical charge out rate applies to all inputs by environmental planners (including team leaders and managers), technical officers and monitoring officers. The hourly charge out rates include the use of vehicles, phone calls, internet charges, use of equipment, stationery, incidental business support and incidental photocopying.

Other charges

1. External inputs. These are Council technical inputs external to the Resource Consents Team staff and contractors. These include the policy advisors, development engineers, roading engineers, secretariat and Councillor hearing related costs.
2. Specialist inputs. These are inputs of skills and expertise external to the Council needed to address application issues such as legal, archaeological, iwi consultation, hazard assessment, geo-technical assessments, traffic engineering, arboreal, landscape assessment, specialised resource management advice and the use of hearings commissioners. Contractors fulfilling the roles normally handled by the Resource Consents Team are not specialist inputs.

Fee types

There are two fee types:

1. Fixed fee. This fee covers all costs for a process, product or aspect of an application. The amount is fixed – no additional costs will be charged by the Council in regard to the application up to the stage the document or consent is issued.
2. Base fee. The base fee is non-refundable except in accordance with the refund criteria. This fee is set at a level intended to cover a straight-forward application with no external inputs or other case specific costs. This fee will cover the receipt and issue of the application and initial monitoring together with up to a specified number of hours of resource consents processing group technical inputs that typically remain after these costs are deducted.

Applications requiring external or specialist inputs will reduce the number of processing hours from that stated.

In some instances the base fee will be exceeded. Matters that could cause the base fee to be exceeded include external or specialist inputs, pre-hearing or other meetings, significant mail outs or photocopying, amendments or additional information or application complexity. Invoices will be sent out where fees paid are exceeded.

Payment of fees

• Application fees are to be paid at the time of lodgement unless alternative payment arrangements have been formally approved.
• A reduced application fee may be set by the Manager Consents where unusual circumstances or the characteristics of the application would make it inappropriate to charge the normal fee.
• Additional fees will be required to be paid before the continuation of processing where an application belongs within a higher fee category.
• Where an application falls within more than one fee category, the higher fee category will apply.
• Initial monitoring fees (if applicable) are due for payment at the time of consent issue. These normally will be deducted from the application fee.
• Processing costs exceeding the fee paid will be invoiced. Invoicing may be periodic or at the completion of processing.
• Non-payment of fees or invoiced additional processing costs will result in processing or consent issue being suspended unless alternative payment arrangements have been formally agreed.

Refunds

In cases where applications are withdrawn or there is a significant change in the consent a refund will be considered.

Development Contributions (Refer to the Policy on Development Contributions in Volume 2 of the Community Plan 2009-2019 for further detail)

Development contributions are collected to ensure that infrastructure and community facilities support the needs of the growing community and that the costs of new development are shared by developers rather than being funded entirely by ratepayers. Development contributions are required if a development:   1. Increases demand on stormwater, wastewater, water or road assets,       or increases the demand for community facilities; and   2. Is a new residential, commercial, retail or industrial development. Development contributions are payable before issuing a s224(c) certificate.

Land Use Consents and Associated Processes

Charge out rates

There are two resource consent processing group charge out rates:

1. The administration charge out rate applies to front of house carrying out application/documentation acceptance and support services functions including record keeping and other incidental administrative tasks.
2. The technical charge out rate applies to all inputs by environmental planners (including team leaders and managers), technical officers and monitoring officers. The hourly charge out rates include the use of vehicles, phone calls, internet charges, use of equipment, stationery, incidental business support and incidental photocopying.

Other charges

1. External inputs. These are Council technical inputs external to the Resource Consents Team staff and contractors. These include policy advisors, development engineers, roading engineers, secretariat and Councillor hearing related costs.
2. Specialist inputs. These are inputs of skills and expertise external to the Council needed to address application issues such as legal, archaeological, iwi consultation, hazard assessment, traffic engineering, arboreal, landscape assessment, specialised resource management advice and the use of hearings commissioners. Contractors fulfilling the roles normally handled by the Resource Consents Team are not specialist inputs.

Fee types

There are three fee types:

1. Fixed fee. This fee covers all costs for a process, product or aspect of an application. The amount is fixed – no additional costs will be charged by the Council in regard to the application up to the stage the document or consent is issued.
2. Set base fee. This is an all inclusive fee covering the administration and technical processing work by the Resource Consents Team which covers receiving, processing and issuing the document or consent. Additional charges will apply for external and specialist inputs if required.
3. Base fee. The base fee is non-refundable except in accordance with the refund criteria. This fee is set at a level intended to cover a straight-forward application with no external inputs or other case specific costs.

This fee will cover the receipt and issue of the application and initial monitoring together with up to a specified number of hours of resource consents processing group technical inputs that typically remain after these costs are deducted.

Applications requiring external or specialist inputs will reduce the number of processing hours from that stated.

In some instances the base fee will be exceeded.

Matters that could cause the base fee to be exceeded include external or specialist inputs, pre hearing or other meetings, significant mail outs or photocopying, amendments or additional information or application complexity. Invoices will be sent out where fees paid are exceeded.

Payment of fees

• Application fees are to be paid at the time of lodgement unless alternative payment arrangements have been formally approved.
• A reduced application fee may be set by the Manager Consents where unusual circumstances or the characteristics of the application would make it inappropriate to charge the normal fee.
• Additional fees will be required to be paid before the continuation of processing where an application belongs within a higher fee category.
• Where an application falls within more than one fee category, the higher fee category will apply.
• Initial monitoring fees (if applicable) are due for payment at the time of consent issue. These normally will be deducted from the application fee.
• Processing costs exceeding the fee paid will be invoiced. Invoicing may be periodic or at the completion of processing.
• Non-payment of fees or invoiced additional processing costs will result in processing or consent issue being suspended unless alternative payment arrangements have been formally agreed.

Refunds

In cases where applications are withdrawn or there is a significant change in the consent a refund will be considered.

Building Consents and Associated Processes

Fee types

All fees are a minimum. In some cases actual costs of a project may exceed the estimated minimum fee, due to external or specialist inputs, amendments, additional information submitted, application complexity, inspection complexity or additional inspections undertaken.

At the end of a project if the actual costs have significantly exceeded the minimum fee, an invoice for the additional costs will be sent and are required to be paid prior to issue of a code compliance certificate.

Cancellations

When an application is withdrawn before the consent is issued and fees are outstanding, an invoice for the work completed to date will be sent to the fee payer.

If an application is withdrawn after the consent is issued, a refund will be sent to the payer for monies not used by the activities to date.

Payment of fees

The total fee and levies applicable are required to be paid in full when you submit your application.

Extra inspections or re-inspections will be invoiced at the end of the project and are required to be paid prior to the issuing of a code compliance certificate.

• A reduced application fee may be set by the Manager Building where unusual circumstances or the characteristics of the application would make it inappropriate to charge the normal fee; or in the case of certificates of acceptance the reasons why a building consent was not obtained are determined to be genuine.
• Where an application belongs within a higher fee category, additional fees will be required to be paid before the continuation of processing. This will apply when work is undervalued. The estimated value of the finished work will be used.
• Where an application falls within more than one fee category, the higher fee category will apply.
• Non-payment of fees or the invoiced additional processing costs will result in processing or inspection being suspended unless alternative payment arrangements have been formally agreed.

A typical calculation of the fee you are to pay can be done using this formula:

Fee for category + DBH Levy + BRANZ Levy + Accreditation Levy + Extra Inspection/s fee (if any).

Table 1: Building consent process (building consent and project information memorandum inclusive)

Note: Unless otherwise specified, for uses that fall into more than one category, the higher cost category applies.
