SUBJECT: 1996 Administrative Fees
ITEM 5.15.f
Fees for services are based on the direct cost of administration and
enforcement for the licensed service. The city annually reviews its fees to
ensure that the cost of administration and enforcement are covered and to
see how the fees compare with surrounding communities of similar size.
The recommendation for the following fee increases is based on the cost of
administration and the average fees being charged by metropolitan
municipalities for cities of 10,000 - 20,000 population.
Listed below are the current administrative fees with the recommended
increases.

* The average fee for wine licenses was much higher than what the city is
currently paying. In this case, the City is recommending a below average
increase so as not to dramatically raise the fee in one year.
ACTION RECOMMENDED:
Council action to adopt the changes highlighted in the fees for services chart
for 1996.
