Council reviews Master Fee Schedule updates; new $45 backflow inspection fee proposed
Summary
City staff proposed updates to the Master Fee Schedule, including revised staff time and equipment rates, a new $45 residential backflow device inspection fee for the City's opt-in program, corrections to ADU classification, and a new library-fees section that may be adjusted later by resolution.
City Administrator Max Baker presented proposed updates to the City's Master Fee Schedule at the June 2 work session, saying staff updated staff time and equipment rates in Section 2 to reflect current salaries and fully loaded rates planned for the upcoming budget.
Baker highlighted a new backflow device inspection fee for participants in the City's opt-in program with a residential rate of $45 to formalize a pass-through charge for annual testing when the City arranges the service. He also noted a correction to an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) classification in the land use section and the addition of a library fees section that had been discussed previously but was not ready for adoption during the prior budget cycle. Councilors emphasized reviewing the Master Fee Schedule annually to ensure fees match service costs.
