Lower fee for Record of Survey maps

Yes, you read that right.  Starting August 21, 2012, the map check fee for Record of Survey maps has been reduced from $600 to $586 and will become billable.  Billable means that:

"When staff time exceeds the amount paid ($586 fee), the owner/applicant will be required to pay additional fees to cover the cost of staff time to complete the service."

Also, the Surveyor's hourly billable rate for  for FY 2012 was reduced from $164 to $133 per hour.

For the complete list of fees for our department see Board Resolution 2012-371.
For the hearing see Board Of Supervisors Full Agenda date June 19, 2012 (page 153 of 3416)

Hope that is some good news for FY2013.

We look forward to seeing your R/S maps.
