Way e Wanaada <br />MAYOR <br />Bill Blesener <br />COUNCIL, <br />Rick Montour <br />Barbara Allan <br />John Keis <br />Michael McGraw <br />515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117 -1600 ADMINISTRATOR <br />(651) 766 -4029 / FAX: (651) 766 -4048 Joel R. Hanson <br />www.ci.little-canada.mn.us <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Blesener and Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Code Enforcement Officer <br />DATE: May 21, 2008 <br />RE: Establishment of Automobile Repair- Salvage License Fee <br />Based on recent expansion of the categories of motor vehicle repair licenses, it is staff's <br />recommendation that the City's Fee Schedule be amended to delete the reference to <br />Motor Vehicle Repair and add each category of license and license fee as follows: <br />Automobile Repair -Major $300 <br />Automobile Repair -Minor $300 <br />Automobile Repair - Salvage $300 <br />The current annual license fee for Motor Vehicle Repair is $300 which was increased <br />from $150 approximately one year ago. Staff's position is that the fee should remain at <br />$300 at this time to give the City an opportunity to look at the amount of code <br />enforcement time relative to each license category. It is hoped that the recent I -1 District <br />amendments relative to outdoor storage, etc. will result in a decrease in the need for code <br />enforcement. If not, staff will be able to determine the amount of code enforcement <br />relative to each license category, and would be better able to recommend a specific <br />license fee for each individual repair category. <br />Also attached is a proposed amendment to the Municipal Code Section 807 which lists <br />the three license categories for clarity. <br />Therefore, staff is recommending: <br />An Amendment to the City Fee Schedule relative to Automobile Repair License <br />fees as described above; and <br />An Amendment to Municipal Code Section 807 as described above. <br />
