<br /> METROPOLITAN INSPECTION SERVICE INC. <br /> 2030 WEST COUNTY ROAD D -~ <br /> ST. PAUL. MN 55112 <br /> . (612) 636-5555 <br /> September 19, 1994 <br /> Dorothy A. Person <br /> City Administrator <br /> City of Arden Hills <br /> 1450 West Highway 96 <br /> Arden Hills, Mi'i. 55112-5794 <br /> Re: Electrical Pennit Fees <br /> Dear Dorothy: <br /> . It has been more than six years since the fees for electrical permits were increased. <br /> During the same period, our expenses for wages, taxes, utilities, rent, insurance, <br /> transportation, and many other expenses to run the business have increased substantially. <br /> The electrical code has also added many new requirements that must be checked for <br /> compliance. To protect the city and ourselves against lawsuits, we have initiated <br /> additional record keeping. At the time of Fmal inspection, we record the number of <br /> circuits, type of equipment, and areas wired. This is to protect us if an owner adds <br /> improper wiring without a permit and inspection, and later daims the wiring was there <br /> when the Fmal inspection was made. <br /> The average fee we received, per permit, for electrical permits taken out in 1993 was <br /> $28.30. Permits for remodeling and new construction require multiple inspections for <br /> rough-in(S), service, and Fmal. In addition, reinspections are often required to confum <br /> code violations have been corrected. <br /> As a rule, homeowners are not home during the day and inspections often must be <br /> scheduled to meet the owner at a specific time to gain entrance to the house. <br /> Homeowners often do not complete wiring within the allowed 18 months and one or <br /> more letters are mailed to get the job completed. <br /> . <br />
