COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
Meeting Date: Agenda Item: Subject:
February 1, 2016 11cii Resolution to Adopt Hotel-
Motel Application,
Licensing and Inspection
Fees
Initiated By: Staff Source:
Police Department Deputy Chief Jeff Sanchez
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
City Council recently passed Ordinance 51 (2015) which requires hotels and motels operating in
the city to have a license. At that time, no application, licensing or inspection fees were set.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
The Police Department recommends that City Council adopt a Resolution which will add
application, licensing and inspection fees to Ordinance 51 (2015).
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
Ordinance 51 provides that any person or entity providing hotel or motel services obtain a new
or renewal license at the beginning of each calendar year. The Fire Marshal and Building
Division are required to inspect hotels and motels prior to the issuance or renewal of a license .
Since our current Code requires renewal applications to be submitted by December 31 of each
year, we recommend that licenses be issued on a conditional, temporary basis which would
allow us to stagger these inspections. The following wording is recommended:
"This is a Temporary License and is conditionally issued, pending inspections and approval by
the City of Englewood Building Division, the City of Englewood Fire Marshal, and submission of
a Pest Treatment Certification from a licensed pest control company. Upon completion and
submission of the inspection reports and pest certification, the license shall be valid for one
year."
We looked at application, licensing and inspection fee models for both the cities of Denver and
Aurora and would propose using a combination of the two .
We would propose the following Application/Licensing fee schedule :
# of Units Application Fee Licensing Fee
4-25 $100 ,100
26-50 $150 >125
51-100 $200 >150
101-200 $250 >175
Over200 $300 200
The Application fee would be a one-time fee and the Licensing fee would be an annual fee .
We would propose the following Inspection fee schedule :
Initial Inspection No Charge
First re-inspection $50
Second re-inspection $100
T hird re-inspection $200
Fourth (and each subsequent) $400
re-inspection
FINANCIAL IMPACT
No significant financial impact is anticipated. The application, licensing and inspection fees will
help offset the cost of the inspections by both the Fire Marshal and Chief Building Official.
