Attachment 1 to Ex. Memorandum Date: To: From: Subject: Sidewalk -19-12-F) This memo is providing notice pursuant to EC 2.020(5) that fees in excess of $250 were recently increased by Administrative Order. Property owners have several options available when sidewalk or driveway apron maintenance is necessary within the right-of-way. One of the options is to contract with Public Works Maintenance, when resources are available, for the repair. Fees for the said repairs are established by AO to cover the cost of repairs and overhead. Other options for repair include doing their own work or hiring a private contractor. Recently, a review of program cost identified a gap in cost recovery. The increase necessary to bridge this gap was enough that a two-year phase in approach was chosen. This AO is the first step toward covering program cost and will likely be followed next year with an additional adjustment. Following a review of program cost and prior to proposing an increase in fees for this type of work, Public Works reached out to other jurisdictions to consider the practices and cost of similar programs. Locally, several contractors that do this work were also surveyed and their costs were considered as part of the decision process to increase fees. The proposed amendment to adjust fees was published in the Register Guard and posted at City Hall, and comments were received for 15 days following posting. No comments were received on the proposed fee amendment.
