LS 5 2A <br />G. Such Resolution is hereby rescinded and the Gold Seal Incentive Program <br />is included in the terms of this ordinance. <br />H. The funding for the Gold Seal Incentive Program is $110,000.00, which <br />will provide for 4,782 units to receive exemptions from the annual fee. <br />The number of units that can be approved to participate in the Gold Seal <br />Incentive Program will fluctuate with the adjustment of the annual fee <br />based on the rental program fee study. <br />I. According to 2015 records an inventory of 32,165 rental units are licensed <br />for inspection. Subtracting out the 4,782 units qualified for the Gold Seal <br />Incentive Program, 27,383 units are accountable for the $23.00 per unit <br />annual fee, thus generating an annual revenue of $629,809.00. <br />J. It is anticipated that the deficit for the PREP will be $288,813.00 for the <br />PREP based on the estimated $918,622.00 in expenditures and <br />$629,809.00 in revenues. <br />K.
