§ 30-46. Fee calculation.

(a)

Fee calculation:

(1)

Plan review fees will be paid to the county as set forth in Rule 27P-20.003 when the plan is submitted for initial review. A fee of $250.00 for facilities licensed for 16 beds or less or a fee of $500.00 for facilities licensed for more than 16 beds.

(2)

Training and exercise fees are calculated on a per bed fee based on the facility's total number of licensed beds, or chairs (if applicable) currently $11.71 per bed. There is no limit on the number of individuals that may attend per facility. The fee is a per facility fee. Once the fee has been paid for the fiscal year individuals from that facility may attend all other trainings and exercises offered by the division in the same fiscal year at no additional cost.

(3)

Facilities that require a plan review and training and exercise will pay the plan review fee and the training and exercise fee.

(4)

This rate may change each fiscal year and will be calculated on the loaded salary rate of the one full time county employee that administers the program and the annual budgeted program costs per fiscal year divided by number of beds. Changes to the fee shall be approved by the board by resolution.

(b)

The division shall post via the Pasco County Emergency Management web page the estimated cost for the next fiscal year by August 1 of each year.

(c)

Organizations providing medical services without fixed facilities may participate in the division's training and exercise opportunities at a cost of $250.00 per organization annually.
