Plain City staff proposes new council‑managed zoning fee schedule to replace code‑embedded figures

Apr 3, 2025

Staff proposed removing static fees from the zoning code and replacing them with a council‑approved schedule to allow annual adjustments; P&Z recommended the change and a public hearing/first reading is scheduled in May.

Village staff (S2) proposed restructuring how zoning and development fees are adopted: instead of fixed fee amounts embedded in the code, staff recommends a council‑approved fee schedule that can be updated annually without a code amendment. Staff said many fee figures in the code have not been updated since 2008–2016 and that commonly used residential permit fees could be lowered while some development fees may increase.
