Summary

Committee reviewed Appendix D (fees and fines), voted to change a section title to 'Wire and Alarm Division Fees' and referred the full appendix to the administration and department heads for review with a requested return date; referral carried with unanimous committee support.

The committee began a line-by-line review of Appendix D (the city’s fee and fine schedule), identifying entries that need clarification or departmental input. Members voted to change the heading 'Electrical Wire Department Fees' to 'Wire and Alarm Division Fees' to match current city department names.

The chair moved to refer the entire Appendix D to the administration and relevant department heads for review and updates, with a suggested return date (the 20th). Committee members discussed departmental responsibility for individual fees, the need to cross-reference fees to ordinance sections, and the timeline for submitting revisions to general code. The referral carried with three ayes; staff will gather updated fee numbers and return a proposed revision for committee review and later submission to general code.
