2020 Fee Schedule <br />Page 2 <br />SMALL CELL PERMITS <br />While it is unlikely that small cell technology will reach the City anytime soon, the schedule contains the recommended <br />fees for wireless facilities, whether attached to existing or new structures. <br />CITY LABOR RATES: <br />Staff is recommending an increase in the hourly rates for inspections, grass and weed mowing, public works workers, <br />and for public records searches. These rates have not been adjusted for several years and now reflect the increased <br />cost of insurance. <br />COPIES: <br />The fee schedule has been adjusted to reflect the statutory limits cities can charge for public data requests. <br />CONCLUSION <br />Staff is cognizant that fees cannot be excessive. In fact, state law restricts the setting of fees in excess of the cost of <br />providing the corresponding service and in some instances the fees are contained in state statutes. The Finance <br />Department has thoroughly reviewed each of our fees to ensure compliance with state restrictions. <br />To reiterate, the City Council directed staff to review these fees and recommend changes annually. The Finance <br />Department recommends adoption of the fee schedule for 2020 as proposed and authorize the summary publication of <br />said ordinance. <br />ATTAC H M F NTS <br />Ordinance Setting 2020 Fees, Rates and Charges <br />
