Flat Rock approves amended fee schedule; variance and amendment fees adjusted
Summary
The council approved an amended fee schedule effective July 1, 2026, updating the variance fee and the text amendment fee to better reflect staff costs and align with other Henderson County municipalities; the motion passed unanimously May 14.
The Village of Flat Rock council on May 14 approved an amended municipal fee schedule to take effect July 1, 2026.
Administrator Patricia Christie recommended changes to the variance fee and to the text amendment fee, explaining that the text amendment fee was adjusted to be comparable with other Henderson County municipalities and to cover staff time required for processing. Mayor Coletta moved to approve the amended fee schedule; Council Member Jeter seconded the motion, which carried by unanimous vote.
The minutes record the effective date (July 1, 2026) and note the council’s action without listing the exact fee amounts in the motion text. The change is administrative and intended to align the village’s permitting and amendment fees with neighboring jurisdictions and to recover staff costs for ordinance and text amendment processing.
Next steps: the village will publish the updated fee schedule and implement the new fees beginning July 1 unless otherwise modified by later council action.
