Work Without a Permit: Building construction and grading activities requiring permits per
ACC 15.74 that are determined to be in violation for work occurring without an approved
permit result in additional documentation, administration, research, and inspection and

standard application and permit fees identified in sections 3 and 4 above.
It is possible a violation existed prior to property purchase by a new owner, was
constructed by an individual who mislead the owner, or was constructed by an individual
who was unaware of code requirements. The fact that violations may not have been
created by the current owner does not relieve Code Enforcement staff from their
responsibility to seek compliance from the property owner. When assessing permit fees,
consideration may be given based on the circumstances, severity of the violation, and
timeliness of the property owner to resolve and obtain required permits and compliance
with City code.
Building Permit Fee Reductions. The Director is authorized to waive building,
mechanical or plumbing permit fees for homeowners that are already enrolled in another
City program that is intended to benefit low income residents (e.g. housing home repair
program, utility discount program). This fee reduction may also be extended to contractors
that are applying for permits on behalf of these homeowners provided that it can be
Page 11
documented that the discount is benefiting the homeowner and not supplementing a
contractor’s profit.

gravel surfaces are not included in the calculation of the SDCs. One ESU is considered equal to 2,600 square

M. WAIVER OF FEES (Per Resolution No. 5181).
1. The Mayor is authorized to waive any fees for permits, licenses, publications and
actions as authorized by Sections 2.03.030, 5.10.030 and 12.60.020 of the City Code.
2. The Mayor is also authorized to reduce, and is vested with to discretion to reduce
in compelling cases, by up to 50% any fees for permits, publications and actions where the
applicant – the party responsible for payment of such fees – is an organization exempt from
taxation under 26 US 501(c)(3), and where the permit(s), publication(s) and/or action(s) relate
directly to the provision of charitable services to residents of the City of Auburn. Charitable
services are defined as events or services provided to the residents of Auburn free of charge and
where the City is a sponsor of the specific event or service. For the purposes hereof, “compelling
cases” mean instances where there is an extraordinary need (greatly beyond current and ordinary
need) for the charitable services that would be able to be provided. The intent of this authorization
is to empower the Mayor with sole discretion to waive some fees in unique situations where there
is a greatly increased need for new charitable services to be provided, and where the reduction
of fees to the City will not detrimentally impact the City’s ability to provide municipal services. This
waiver does not include Impact Fees, System Development Charges, any fees related to
Franchise or Public Way Agreements, Right-of-way Vacations, Right-of-Way Use Permits, Facility
Extensions, Police Department Fees, Animal Licensing Fees and Penalties, Banner Permit Fees,
or Cemetery or Parks fees.
