maximize service excellence while minimizing financial pressures to its

sufficient revenues to cover direct and indirect costs the City incurs to
service building permits and enforce the Act and Code and thus be revenue
neutral;

Code Services Branch of the Infrastructure Services and Community
Sustainability Department is undertaking a review to determine the appropriate
fee reduction that will ensure revenues generated from building permits only
cover direct and indirect costs, and planned to report to Committee and Council
May 2009;
AND WHEREAS the City of
Ottawa is committed to assist its taxpayers and businesses to weather the
economic situation where possible;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED
that the Building Code Services Branch be directed to undertake the review in a
more expeditious manner and to report back to Committee and Council on the
recommended reduction with analysis and impact of the recommended changes by
