Avon plans first building fee hike since 1993
Avon officials consider raising residential building fees 12 to 18 percent as part of an updated building code. Current average fees for a 2,500 to 3,500 square foot home would rise from about 1000 to roughly 1200 dollars, with formulas based on square footage and utility connections. The plan, backed by Building Inspector James P. Smith, aims to amend the code within two to three months and discusses a draft ordinance for the Jan. 11 council meeting.
