Mounds View City Council December 13, 2004 Regular Meeting Page 4 MOTION/SECOND: Marty/Quick. To Approve the Consent Agenda as presented. 1 2 Ayes – 5 Nays – 0 Motion carried. 3 4 10. COUNCIL BUSINESS 5 6 A. 7:05pm Public Hearing Resolution 6402 Adopting the 2005 Mounds View Fee 7 Schedule. 8 9 Council Member Marty questioned some of the high costs on the fee schedule. 10 11 Director Ericson clarified that the amounts listed were not permit fees, but they are values 12 assigned to the items in order to be consistent with the fees. 13 14 Council Member Marty questioned the item on page 62 for building inspections, change of 15 address, $100 deposit. 16 17 Director Ericson stated that they don’t really have an application process for change of address, 18 but City Code requires that it be done by ordinance and there are some fees associated with 19 processing an ordinance such as publication and notification. He stated that this is essentially a 20 $100 deposit. He stated they had processed a change of address last year and found the cost to be 21 right around $100, and perhaps they actually needed another $25 to come whole on that. 22 23 Council Member Marty stated he didn’t understand the administrative offense on page 67 24 regarding the stop sign. 25 26 Mayor Linke stated that basically you cannot park within 15 feet of a stop sign. 27 28 Council Member Marty asked if they were researching the fee on automobile sales. 29 30 Ms. Crane stated that she had researched it somewhat, and that the City of Maplewood has 31 motor vehicle repair license at $141 per year and a used car lot business license at $292 per 32 year. She stated the City of Roseville does not have such business licenses. She stated she 33 has made an e-mail request to the City of White Bear Lake. 34 35 Council Member Stigney stated he doesn’t see any reason why they would only be charging $150 36 based on what the City of Maplewood charges, and he thought they should be charging $300. 37 38 Ms. Crane stated that an ordinance would need to be passed to change it. 39 40 Director Ericson stated that the City Attorney has indicated that the planning and development 41 fees are adopted by ordinance, and there are two of the fees that are right in the City Code. He 42 stated that what’s in the Code doesn’t match the fee schedule, they will have to readopt all of 43 the planning fees by ordinance, which is what Minnesota Statutes seem to indicate they need to 44 do. He stated that this would be coming back before the Council in January. 45
