STAFF REPORT TO: Mayor Keis and Members of City Council FROM: Heidi Heller, City Clerk DATE: January 8, 2016 RE: 2016 Fee Schedule Amendments Park Charge The Parks & Recreation Commission discussed increasing the Park Charges for new development since Little Canada is below the average of the cities that were surveyed. Little Canada last increased the Park Charges in 2007. The Commission voted on December 3, 2015 to recommend increasing the Park Charges for residential, 1-8 units, and commercial/industrial. The Parks & Recreation Commission did not discuss the fee for residential, 9 or more units, so the Council may want to consider increasing that fee also. The current fee for 9+ units is $1,950, which is 75% of the $2,600 fee for 1-8 units. If the Council wanted to use the same percentage for the increase, 75% of $3,500 is $2,625. Existing Park Charge – Residential $2,600.00 per unit – 1 unit through 8 units $1,950.00 per unit – 9 units or more Existing Park Charge – Commercial 10% Land or 5% FMV 2016 Park Charge – Residential $3,500.00 per unit – 1 unit through 8 units $1,950.00 per unit – 9 units or more 2016 Park Charge – Commercial 10% Land or 7% FMV 2016 Facility Rental Fees The following increases to the park shelters and Old Fire Hall rental fees are proposed for 2016 based on our 2016 Budget discussions.
