South Weber council approves higher fees for zoning map changes and excavation permits
Summary
Council approved Resolution 26-02 to raise the application fee for zoning/ordinance changes to $600 and increased excavation permit fees to a $500 base fee and $250 for additional inspections. The vote was unanimous among council members present.
South Weber City Council voted to amend the Consolidated Fee Schedule, raising the fee for zoning and ordinance change applications and increasing excavation permit fees.
City staff recommended removing a $500 zoning-map amendment fee previously duplicated in consultant development charges and increasing Chapter 11 excavation fees to better cover coordination and on-site inspections. The staff-recommended amendments were recorded in the packet and presented as: "Chapter 10: Application for Change in Zoning and/or Ordinances $600; Chapter 11: Base Permit Fee (Two Inspections) $500; Additional Inspection Fee $250." Councilman Wayne Winsor moved to approve Resolution 26-02 and Councilwoman Angie Petty seconded; Council Members Davis, Dills, Halverson, Petty and Winsor voted aye and the motion carried.
Council discussion on the item was procedural and focused on aligning fees with consultant standards and inspection costs. The fee increases are effective per the adopted resolution and will be reflected in the city's consolidated schedule.
