Administrative Order - Page 1 of 2 <br />ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 53-20-01-F <br />of the <br />City Manager of the City of Eugene <br /> <br />SETTING TOBACCO PRODUCTS RETAIL LICENSE FEES AND <br />SUPERSEDING THE FEE SCHEDULE ADOPTED BY <br />ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 53-15-04-F. <br /> <br />The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds as follows: <br /> <br />A. Section 2.020 of the Eugene Code, 1971, authorizes the City Manager of the City <br />of Eugene to determine and set fees and charges to be imposed by the City for services, goods, use <br />of municipal property, and licenses and permits. Section 3.515 of the Code authorizes the City <br />Manager to establish fees in order to implement the provisions of Code Sections 3.500 to 3.515. <br /> <br />B. Pursuant to the authority above, on May 7, 2015, Administrative Order No. 53-15- <br />04-F was issued making the most recent changes to the tobacco products retail license fees and <br />adopting an updated Tobacco Products Retail License Fee Schedule (“the Fee Schedule”). <br /> <br />C. On February 6, 2020, I issued Administrative Order No. 53-20-01 ordering that <br />notice be given of the opportunity to submit written comments on the proposal to set new fees <br />effective April 1, 2020. The Notice specified that comments on the proposed amendments would <br />be received for 15 days from February 7, 2020, the posting date of the Notice. No comments were <br />received within the time or in the manner described in the Notice. <br /> <br />D. Adoption of the proposed fee amendments was postponed until April 1, 2021, due <br />to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. In considering whether to proceed with adoption of the <br />proposed fee amendments with an effective date of April 1, 2021, I chose to first provide an <br />additional opportunity for the public to comment on the proposal. On March 22, 2021, notice of <br />that additional opportunity was published in the Register Guard newspaper and posted at two <br />locations at City Hall. The notice advised the public that the City Manager would consider written <br />comments received within five days of the date of posting and publication. No comments were <br />received within the time or manner described in the Notice. <br /> <br />E. Based on my investigation pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.020 of the <br />Eugene Code, 1971, I find that the fees should be set as proposed. (See Exhibit B to this Order) <br /> <br />F. The unamended tobacco products retail license fees adopted by Administrative <br />Order No. 53-15-04-F are incorporated into the Fee Schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Order. <br /> <br />On the basis of these findings, I order that: <br /> <br />1. The Tobacco Products Retail License Fee Schedule attached as Exhibit A to this <br />Order is the schedule of fees to be charged for the described services effective April 1, 2021.
