Summary

The Village Attorney said developers must pay a $1,300 consultant fee in addition to application fees; the developer pays the Village and the Village pays the planner, limiting Village financial exposure.

At the Feb. 5 meeting the Village Attorney explained that developer review costs are handled so the Village is not primarily responsible for planner expenses: developers must pay a $1,300 consultant fee in addition to the application fee; the developer remits payment to the Village, which then pays the planner for review work.

Council discussed that this structure limits Village liability for planner costs and that future consultant expenses would normally be tied to new development applications or projects.
