<br />written finding that comparing the proposed fees to those charged in other cities was irrelevant in light <br />of the specific directive in EC 7.300 that the fees must fully recover program costs and the fact that <br />most other cities subsidize their right-of-way permit programs. <br /> <br />The proposed ordinance also would make comparable changes to fee-setting provisions for airport fees <br />and for stormwater and wastewater fees. <br /> <br />A work session on the proposed ordinance was held on May 16, 2007. At that work session, the City <br />Council requested additional language to provide for notification of the members of the City Council; <br />that language has been added. A public hearing on the proposed ordinance was held on May 21, 2007; <br />no one spoke on the proposed ordinance at that hearing. <br /> <br /> <br />RELATED CITY POLICIES <br />The proposed ordinance would not directly affect City policies; it would revise the methods used by <br />the City Manager to consider setting fees and charges. <br /> <br /> <br />COUNCIL OPTIONS <br /> <br />The council may propose additional modifications to the proposed ordinance or may move to adopt the <br />ordinance as drafted. <br /> <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION <br />The City Manager recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed ordinance. <br /> <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION <br />Move to adopt an ordinance concerning setting fees and charges and amending sections 2.020, 2.442, <br />and 6.411 of the Eugene Code. <br /> <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />A. Proposed Ordinance with amendments requested at the May 16, 2007, City Council work session. <br /> <br /> <br />FOR MORE INFORMATION <br /> <br />Staff Contact: Mary Walston <br />Telephone: 682-5406 <br />Staff E-Mail: mary.f.walston@ci.eugene.or.us <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> L:\CMO\2007 Council Agendas\M070529\S0705295.DOC <br />
