\"Cr<\/a>
TRC Planning and Development portfolio chair Cr Chris Tait<\/figcaption><\/figure>May 20, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

Toowoomba Regional Council’s planning and development application fees will rise by 4 per cent from July 1.<\/p>\n

However, a Council spokesman said a number of fees were capped or reduced in the Planning and Development Group Register of Fees and Charges for 2014-15 which was adopted at today’s Council Ordinary Meeting.<\/p>\n

The new fee schedule reflects Council’s long-term aim of recovering 75 per cent of costs for delivering development assessment and building and compliance services.<\/p>\n

The remaining 25 per cent is funded from Council’s consolidated revenue.<\/p>\n

Planning and Development portfolio spokesman Cr Chris Tait said despite Council dealing with rising costs associated with a number of external and internal influences, the general fee increase was kept to 4 per cent.<\/p>\n

“The fees reflect the real costs of the provision of these services,” Cr Tait said.<\/p>\n

“Council must seek to recoup its costs for these services so it does not stress the Budget in other areas of council business.<\/p>\n

“As you can see, Council is not seeking to recoup the full cost of these services and the increase is just slightly above the current CPI.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
