Fees for Services
Attached for your review is the 1998 city fee schedule. Generally the City
Council likes to see the schedule prior to it being presented in late December
or early January for the upcoming year. At this time I am still receiving
input from various department heads on some possible changes for 1999. I
hope to have some of this information available to present to the Council on
Monday November, 23, but nothing, other than the current fee schedule is
attached to this memo.
Two issue that I believe will be presented for Council review include an
increase in park dedication fees and an increase in building permit fees.
Regarding building permit fees, the city follows the state fee structure as this
eliminates any issues with applicants when discussing city fees. At this time
I don't know if the building permit increase is going to be proposed to be
implemented all in one year, or ff the building and zoning administrator is
going to recommend implementation over a two year time frame, which has
been done in the past. Regarding park dedication fees, the last resolution on
this topic was adopted in late 1995 for fees collected in 1996, 1997, and 1998.
The commission is currently reviewing its needs and fee schedules of other
communities, and a recommendation is expected in the near future.
In general, I just wanted to get the current fee schedule out to the City
Council for review, and I hope to have some verbal updates for you on
Monday evening.
