� z <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> DATE: April 1, 1998 <br /> TO: Mike Mornson, City Manager <br /> FROM: Roger Larson, Finance Director <br /> ITEM: GASOLINE SERVICE STATION LICENSE FEES <br /> The past few weeks, finance has been renewing the annual license fees for service <br /> stations. During the process, one of the service station owners (Amoco) questioned the <br /> fairness of the fees charged at his station versus what the station paid at 2400 — 371' <br /> Avenue NE. <br /> The current license fee for service station reads: <br /> 1) $25.00 for station and 1 gas hose, plus $7.50 for each <br /> additional hose. <br /> The fairness issue arises when stations, which have electronic pumps, are able to <br /> dispense multiple products through one hose. <br /> Example: At most service station pumps you have the option of choosing 3 different <br /> octains by using one of three different hose options. However, service stations with <br /> state-of-the-art pumps disperse 3 different octanes through one hose and pay a lesser <br /> license fee. <br /> The current license fees language for service stations needs to be revised to charge all <br /> service stations a license fee that is equitable. <br /> My recommendation is as follows: <br /> Leave as is: <br /> Gasoline service stations = $25.00 for station and 1 gas hose, plus $7.50 for each <br /> additional hose. <br /> Add additional lanwage: <br /> . Gasoline service stations with multiple product dispensement through one hose = <br /> $25.00 for station and 1 product line, plus $7.50 for each additional product line <br /> dispersed. <br />
