Medicine Hat to raise building permit fees to cover costs
Medicine Hat plans to close a gap between permit costs and fees by shifting to a user pay model across departments. Development services could add about 250000 annually by 2018 with varied increases for different permits, while some local business groups warn against raising costs amid a weak economy. Senior officials say about a third of current charges align with peers, with some hikes up to 50 percent for certain items.
