I have always thought there was no fee for permits to repair/replace existing structures. A neighbor last year replaced the decking on his peir without a permit and after they were done APCO sent them a packet in the mail to apply for a retroactive permit.  They were informed there was no fee but you must aquire the permit before repairs even without a footprint change. So it appears to me that APCO is saying they will waive a fee that doesn't exist.  I did not read to the press release to say that fees for new construction are being waived, only repairs.  It is nice of them to offer disposal help though.  I think some clarification is in order.
