City Council Regular Meeting - 12/04/06 Minutes - Page 15 Mayor Klausing requested that staff provide comparison park dedication fee information for those cities used in the Truth in Taxation hearing with similar populations. Mayor Klausing opined that, as the park dedication fee analysis may become more detailed, it may be prudent to increase the fee at this time, and make a determination at a later date on actual calculations. After further discussion, and timing considerations, it was Council consensus that the proposed fee schedule be approved as recommended by staff, with the exception of the park dedication fees; with action on those proposed for January of 2007. Councilmember Maschka noted that, on the comparison list provided by staff, developing communities were charging more than developed communities for park dedication fees. Councilmember Ihlan further addressed proposed copying fees for self-copying and staff-copying documents; and suggested that self-copying fees remain at current rates of $0.1 O/page. Klausing moved, Ihlan seconded, adoption of Resolution No. 10455 entitled, "Resolution Establishing the 2007 Fee Schedule;" effective January 1, 2007, for regulatory-type fees in accordance with the attached Fee Schedule, amended to leave the Park Dedication -residential fee at current amounts at $1,000.00 per unit; self-copying charges remaining at $0.10/page; and staff- copied copying charges increased to the recommended amount of $0.25/page. Roll Call Ayes: Ihlan; Kough; Pust; Maschka and Klausing. Nays: None. Councilmember Kough, in an unrelated note, requested that Mr. Brokke include notice to several property owners on Western Avenue, of the Parks and Recreation Commission meeting scheduled for Tuesday, December 5, 2006; for the discussion about the goose population problem.
