HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 03 - Ordinance Amending Appendix BMEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ROGER NELSON, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: JUNE 3, 2003
SUBJECT: ORDINANCE AMENDING APPENDIX "B" RELATIVE TO
DEVELOPMENT FEES
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council consider adopting an ordinance amending Appendix "B", Section 2,
paragraph C(7) relative to development fees for re -plats to correct a typographical error
in a previously adopted ordinance, and take any necessary action.
BACKGROUND:
Staff briefed City Council in a workshop on November 5, 2002 regarding proposed
modifications to development fees.
On November 19, 2002, City Council adopted Ordinance 2002-85 imposing the
recommended fees. In that ordinance, fees for certain re -plats were incorrectly listed.
Fees for re -plats of residential zoning, R -MF -1 and R -MF -2 and commercial and
industrial zoning were listed as $300 + $5 /acre in the approved ordinance when they
were intended to be $300 + $25/acre.
The revised ordinance corrects these fees.
Staff recommends approval.
