Council reviews fee schedule updates including digital‑sign advertising and NSF-check fee increase
Summary
Councilors reviewed proposed updates to the borough fee schedule: a new fee for digital-sign advertising and a higher non-sufficient-funds (NSF) check charge. Council discussed revenues and the modest expected income from the digital sign; no final vote was taken at the work session.
At the work session councilors reviewed changes to the borough’s schedule of fees, including a new advertising fee for the municipal digital sign and an increase in the NSF check charge.
Council staff pointed to a small expected revenue stream from digital-sign advertising (estimated roughly $500 per year under current projections) and described three pricing tiers (weekly, monthly, annual) in the draft schedule. Councilors asked for clarity on where the new revenue would be recorded and whether the advertising line would require operational oversight. The NSF check fee was noted as increasing; councilors confirmed the change but did not adopt a final amount at the work session.
Councilors instructed staff to include the revised fee schedule on a future meeting agenda with highlighted changes and suggested that staff supply a one-line revenue projection for the coming year. No binding adoption of the fee schedule occurred at the work session.
