Staff Notes <br />•A building permit must be pulled with the City for all solar panel system <br />installations. <br />•Costs for the permit are based on the size of the project and includes <br />electrical and plan review, final inspections. <br />•Fees for permits cover staff time and administrative costs for processing <br />the permit. It does not contribute to City revenue. <br />Staff Notes <br />•Questions to consider: <br />•Is this a true barrier for low-to-moderate income residents <br />(considering overall cost of a solar system and priorities)? Or are <br />there other ways to address financial barriers to solar? <br />•If offering reduced/no fees, does the City have resources to cover <br />the costs?
