Council tables Master Fee Resolution update for further review
Summary
Councilmembers tabled the proposed Master Fee Resolution update (Res. 797), which would have increased many fees by 5% and converted a flat administrative charge to a per-invoice 5% fee; the item was postponed to the Sept. 17 meeting.
City staff presented a proposed annual update to the Master Fee Resolution (Res. 797) that would increase many fees by five percent and change how administrative and legal-review fees are assessed.
According to the presentation, the update would "increase fees by 5 percent to keep up with inflation," replace a flat $173 administrative fee with a 5 percent administrative fee based on each invoice, delete a permit fee for street tree alterations, and make legal-review fees a passthrough. Councilmember Jensen moved to table Resolution 797 and place it on the Sept. 17, 2024 agenda so the council could review the full update; Councilmember Hedrick seconded and the motion passed 5-0.
The tabling postpones any fee changes until the council's next review. Councilmembers asked for time to review the full proposed language and the fiscal implications before taking final action.
