The Environmental Health Department is requesting to increase the
City's health permit fees by 50. Fees have not been adjusted since
1997, and this year's survey shows that our 1998-1999 fees are
generally less than other health agencies. The 5% increase is based
on cost of living increases which have averaged about 2 1/2o each
of the last two years.
Submitted herewith are copies of:
1. Notice of Public Hearing
2. Proof of Publication
3. Environmental Health Department's Staff Report
The attached proposed rate schedule for health permit fees has been
prepared by the Director of Environmental Health and reviewed by the
City Attorney's office, and it is hereby recommended that the health
permit fees be increased, per the attached schedule, effective June
15, 1999.
Very truly yours,

sublt: EQUEST FOR INCREASE IN HEALTH PERMIT FEES
date: May 12, 1999
Annually we conduct a health permit fee survey of other local environmental health
jurisdictions (Los Angeles County and the cities of Long Beach and Pasadena). The
purpose of the fee survey (attached) is to identify significant disparities between
Vernon's fees and the fees charged by these other jurisdictions. In the past, when large
disparities were noted, we have raised fees to levels which are slightly below those of the
other jurisdictions.
Because we have not raised fees since 1997 and this year's survey shows that our 1998-
99 fees are generally less than other health agencies, I am recommending that the fees be
raised five per cent (5%) this year. The five per cent increase is based on cost of living
increases which have averaged about two and a half per cent each of the last two years.
Based on our discussion on May 11, 1999, and with your concurrence, I am forwarding
this recommendation for submission to the Finance Committee to raise health permit fees
this year with an effective date of June 15, 1999. If you have any questions or require
further information, please contact me.
