For Meeting of: September 5, 2017 Ordinance amending the Municipal Code Section 11.32.106.5.2 to reflect the current fees charged to residents for mechanical permits shall be set by fee resolution Joan Davenport, Community Development Director Sara Watkins, Senior Assistant City Attorney SUMMARY EXPLANATION: This ordinance removes the fee table from the ordinance and requires the Council to pass a fee resolution. The reason for removing fees from ordinance language is that when fees need to be changed, it is more efficient to change them by resolution than ordinance. Further, the fees for building permits can be found in one document rather than throughout the code, making it easier for residents and developers to find a list of all fees. As fees need to be changed, the Council can amend the fee resolution. This does not take away the Council's responsibility to determine and set fees for services. ITEM BUDGETED: NA STRATEGIC PRIORITY: Neighborhood and Community Building APPROVED FOR SUBMITTAL: City Manager STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Pass ordinance BOARD/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Neighborhood and Community Building Committee heard a presentation regarding this matter to the extent it dealt with the fee amounts that will be placed in the resolution.
