| 2018-01-18 18:28:49 | 01/18/18 RESPONDE E-MAIL TO ROY STEPHEN (ARCHITECT): |
| | |
| | GOOD EVENING MR. ROY, |
| | IF YOU HAVE NOTICED, I HAVE MADE MY COMMENT BASED ON |
| | THE INFORMATION THAT WAS SUBMITTED AT TIME OF PERMIT |
| | APPLICATION. I DIDN'T SEE ANY PROPERTY APPRAISAL IN THE |
| | SUBMITTAL. THEREFORE, BASED ON THE INFORMATION OBTAINED |
| | FROM PALM BEACH COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER, THE VALUE OF |
| | THE STRUCTURE IS $142,509. THAT'S WHY I MADE THE CALL |
| | FOR THE SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT. BASED ON THE 50% RULE. |
| | NOW, BASED ON THE INFORMATION YOU PROVIDED NOW IT LOOKS |
| | LIKE THE "SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT" MAY NOT APPLY IN |
| | THIS CASE. |
| | THERE ARE TWO THINGS THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED: |
| | FIRST, ACCORDING TO THE CITY REVISED ORDINANCE THE |
| | "APPRAISAL ANALYSES USED TO ESTABLISH MARKET VALUE |
| | SHALL HAVE BEEN PERFORMED NO MORE THAN SIX MONTHS PRIOR |
| | TO THE DATE A PERMIT APPLICATION IS SUBMITTED FOR THE |
| | PROPOSED IMPROVEMENT". SEE DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE |
| | ON SEC. 18-289 OF ORDINANCE NO. 4729-17. THEREFORE, |
| | NEED TO PROVIDE CURRENT MARKET VALUE ANALYSIS. |
| | SECOND, THE VALUE SHOWN ON THE PERMIT APPLICATION |
| | SUBMITTED DOESN'T MATCH THE VALUE OF THE CONSTRUCTION |
| | BUDGET SUBMITTED NOW. THE VALUE NEED TO BE REVISED ON |
| | THE PERMIT APPLICATION AND NEED TO ADD YOUR DESIGN |
| | PROFESSIONAL FEES AS WELL. THE VALUE IS TO INCLUDE ALL |
| | LABOR, MATERIALS, CONTRACTOR'S OVERHEAD AND PROFIT AND |
| | ALL DESIGN PROFESSIONAL FEES AS REQUIRED BY SEC. 109.3 |
| | CITY AMENDMENTS. |
| | WE NEED ALL THIS INFORMATION UPDATED SO OUR RECORDS |
| | REFLECT WHY THE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS DON'T TRIGGER THE |
| | SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT COMPLIANCE AT HIS TIME. |
| | IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT |
| | ME. |
| | REGARDS, |
| | |
