Staff has reviewed the fees in place to ensure their ongoing equity and cost recovery ability. Ordinance No. 18-18 (the proposed 2019 Fee Schedule) is attached. Recommended amendments to the ordinance are tracked throughout the document. The changes proposed for 2019 are outlined below for your review: • Weed & Mowing Violation Charges, Building Permits, Escrow Deposits, Water Meter Rental and Testing Fees, Trunk Utility Connection Fees, Lateral Service Connection Fees, Surface Water Management Fees, and Development Fees — Staff has adjusted fees to account for inflationary increases; they are generally consistent with neighboring cities.
