Summary

Council passed Resolution #24-727 to update the town fee schedule (raising building fees 25–30% to 2009 levels) and asked HAP and Finance committees to explore ways to make fees more equitable before final implementation.

The council unanimously adopted Resolution #24-727 on Aug. 27, approving updates to the town’s fee schedule. Mayor Smith said the building official had updated fees from 2002 to 2009 rates, representing a roughly 25–30% increase.

Council asked that the Housing Advisory and Planning (HAP) and Finance committees review options to make the schedule more equitable before some fees are finalized. Council Member Tim Matsui moved to pass the resolution, Council Member Will Menzies seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.

The minutes do not list a committee timetable or specific fee line items beyond the building official’s adjustment; the council directed committees to review equity impacts before bringing changes back for council consideration.
