RE: Amend Ordinance Section 19 -7.1 to include Boat Launch User
Fees within Fee Schedule
BACKGROUND
Certain fees for the Use of Park Facilities are specified within Section 19- 4(N)(1)
of the City's Municipal Code. In order to facilitate review of fees annually, to
standardize the treatment of fees across departments and divisions and to make
listings of various city fees more easily accessible, the City has been removing
fees from various sections of the ordinances and creating fee schedules for
various departments and activities. While most of the fees for Use of Park
Facilities have already been moved to a fee schedule, upon reviewing Section
19 -7.1 Boat Launch User Fees staff recommends including these in the general
fee schedule. The. proposed ordinance will amend the municipal code to allow
these fees to be included in the fee schedule for Use of Park Facilities.
ANALYSIS
The proposed ordinance removes the fees from the ordinance so that they may
be incorporated into the fee schedule with other fees related to the use of park
facilities.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the proposed ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the ordinance on first reading to allow these fees
to be incorporated into the fee schedule also being adopted at the December 10
Council meeting.
