Council updates consolidated fee schedule, adds recycling and inspection fees
Summary
Resolution 25-18 amended the city's Consolidated Fee Schedule to reflect cost studies and vendor increases; changes include new recycling and collection-processing fees, higher inspection/research fees, and a $100 home‑occupation fire inspection fee discussed by council members.
The council approved Resolution 25-18 to amend the Consolidated Fee Schedule after staff presented an annual review. Updates included removing outdated fees, increasing research and inspection fees to match staff costs, and adding new fees for recycling and collection processing. Finance Director Brett Baltazar described the fee study used to set inspection fees; Councilman Joel Dills specifically questioned the $100 home-occupation fire inspection fee and staff explained it represents a similar level of work.
Councilman Wayne Winsor moved to approve Resolution 25-18 and Councilwoman Angie Petty seconded; the motion passed on a roll-call vote. The revisions are intended to align fees with actual service delivery costs and regional comparisons so the fees remain transparent and sustainable.
