AGENDA ITEM 3D STAFF ORIGINATOR: Julie Bartell, City Clerk MEETING DATE: May 12, 2008 TOPIC: Second Reading of Ordinance No. 08-08, Amendment to 2008 City Fee Schedule VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 BACKGROUND In order to provide for a more efficient and timely method of reviewing and adjusting the various fees charged by the City, fees are consolidated into one schedule known as the City Fee Schedule.. This fee schedule is adopted annually but occasionally, as is the case this year, the city institutes a new process or permit system that includes a fee. In order to institute any changes or new fees, the city should amend its fee schedule to reflect accordingly. It is also advisable to keep the fee schedule accurate by updating fees as necessary. The following changes to the 2008 City Fee Schedule are presented in the attached ordinance: Lawn Sprinkling: On April 14, 2008, the Council approved Ordinance No. 06-08, amending the city's lawn watering restrictions to include a daily ban between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. The ordinance includes an exemption for irrigating or watering of new landscaping (sod or seed) through issuance of a 28 day permit. Authorization for such a permit is now included in the Fee Schedule; a permit is issued at no cost. Lawn Sprinkler/Irrigation System Permit: On April 14, 2008, the Council approved Ordinance No. 07-08, adding Section 401.37 to the City Code. The new section regulates lawn sprinkler/irrigation systems and requires a permit for such systems. Staff has established a system to issue Lawn Sprinkling/Irrigation System permits and recommends establishment of a permit fee of $50. The regulations include a requirement for rain sensors on all systems. Gambling Tax: As allowed by Minnesota Statutes, Section 349.213, the City of Lino Lakes imposes a 3% tax of gross receipts (less prizes paid out) upon licensed charitable gambling organizations in the city. Currently, the Fee Schedule reflects a tax of one tenth of one percent of net profit; this fee is out of date and language presented in the ordinance will reflect the city's current practice and authority. City Map: The City has available for purchase city maps. Staff is recommending _ that the charge for these maps be raised from $2.00 to $2.50 based on the actual cost to the city of purchasing the maps from Anoka County. The first reading of Ordinance No. 08-08 was approved by the Council on April 28, 2008. — RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of second reading and adoption of Ordinance No. 08-08, amending the 2008 City Fee Schedule.
