BoardCity Council Study Session
The City Council held a study session to review proposed updates to community development fees, specifically moving toward full cost recovery rather than maintaining subsidies. Staff presented analysis and recommendations regarding appeal fees, balancing cost recovery goals with the need to ensure due process. The Council and members of the public discussed concerns regarding fee comparisons with other jurisdictions, the methods used to calculate fees, and the potential impact of proposed fee increases on smaller projects compared to larger developments. The session served to gather feedback in preparation for a future public hearing to finalize the citywide fee schedule.
