Council adopts temporary subdivision fee schedule while staff finalizes details
Summary
The council adopted a temporary fee schedule for subdivision applications to cover initial review costs while staff develops a detailed fee structure; staff cited examples from other Utah towns (e.g., Highland's $2,250 preliminary-plat fee) as guidance.
The council approved a temporary subdivision fee schedule to allow applications to move forward while staff refines the town’s long-term fee structure.
A presenter (Speaker 1) said many Utah towns use flat fees for preliminary plats and other review steps and cited Highland as an example, saying, "Here's Highland, $2,250 preliminary plat, review cost for the engineer," and noting examples often include two reviews within the listed fee. The presenter recommended a temporary schedule that charges an application fee (for example, $100) with the remainder billed at actual cost until staff can finalize a permanent schedule.
Committee member (Speaker 4) moved to adopt the temporary fee schedule; the motion was seconded (record shows a second by Speaker 3). The Chair called for a voice vote; members said "aye" and the motion carried. Speakers stressed that the temporary schedule is meant to be refined after additional review with engineering consultants.
The transcript records the intent to bring back a more detailed fee schedule once engineering review guidance and actual cost data are compiled. The next meeting date was noted as April 29, when follow-up items — including conditional-use business items — are expected on the agenda.
