The City of Everett recently went through a change in leadership within the Planning and Long-Range Planning Divisions of the Community Development Department. LDC was hired by the City of Everett’s city administration to act as the Interim Community Development Director to temporarily lead and manage the Department’s staff and help ensure both current and long-range planning tasks remained on-schedule.
LDC also assisted the City with a Fee Comparison Study, in which the City’s development fees were compared to various neighboring or similarly-sized cities. The goal of this exercise was to determine which, if any, of the City’s land use, building, and public works fees were either higher or lower than the median, and to provide feedback for City staff regarding the assessment of the fees as compared to the other cities.
