the Camillus House Lazarus project.No change needed to the FY

State legislation for shorter turnaround time requirements for
residential permit applications results in a need for more
resources.Recommend adding recurring enhancements of 4
additional positions in Building ($260,000)and 1 additional

likely be offset by pending fee increases after the budget is
