At the Environment & Public Works Committee meeting on Aug. 27, committee members discussed Ordinance 16-24, which the committee was told would increase fees; the transcript does not list specific fee amounts or the precise fees affected.
The committee was told the Safety Service Director would have discretion to waive all or part of the fees for individuals. Staff described the change as a measure intended to avoid city liability if problems arise after a project is completed, likening it to a security deposit; the transcript does not identify who made that characterization.
Richard Morgan moved to close the matter and Cathy King seconded the motion. The transcript records the motion and the second but does not record a vote or the motion's outcome.
Committee materials or future council action would be needed to confirm the ordinance text, the fee schedule and whether the waiver discretion would be constrained by policy or statute.
