| | | | | | | | | SUMMARY
| A Resolution adopting the “2016 Fee, Bond, and Insurance Schedule” for the City of Battle Creek.
| BUDGETARY CONSIDERATIONS
| The amounts contained in the Schedule were analyzed by City departments and reflect the cost of providing the various services. |
HISTORY, BACKGROUND and DISCUSSION
| Section 802.24 of the Codified Ordinances states the City Commission shall enact a schedule of fees required to be paid, bonds required to be posted, and insurance required to be carried, in order to obtain a license or permit from the City. A license or permit must be obtained to engage in the operations, conduct or carrying on of any trade, profession, business or privilege.
Additionally, the Schedule provides the fee structure for all services provided by the City, not just those related to the issuance of licenses or permits. This comprehensive listing is an excellent resource and provides invaluable information for Commissioners, staff, citizens and businesses.
| DISCUSSION OF THE ISSUE
|
| POSITIONS
| The following departments made minor modifications to their fee structures: City Clerk, Fire, Parks & Recreation, Risk, Treasurer, Utility Billing, and W.K. Kellogg Airport.
Some changes are attributable to the wage increases effective July1,2016 due to contract negotiations. For all other changes, each respective department determined the actual cost of the service had increased or decreased, and therefore the fee was required to be adjusted. |
