Ordinance 6410
ITEM 6.A.
Council Action: 5/18/2020
Description

Ordinance to amend Chapter 2.08 "Schedule of Fees" of the 2015 Municipal Code of Council Bluffs, Iowa, by amending Section 2.08.030 "Waiver Of Fees".
Background/Discussion

It has long been the practice not to charge fees for projects undertaken by the City. In my review of our Code, I have been unable to find any authority for this waiver.  The rational for not charging fees for our City projects seems sound in that it would essentially be taking the money out of one pocket and putting it into the other. 

Recommendation

I would recommend the adoption of this amendment to Section 2.08.030 of the Council Bluffs Municipal Code.
