Department Approval <br />�. � � <br />Item Description: <br />�� <br />„�,, 1 � � � <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />Revise the 20l 3 Fee Schedule by Ordinance <br />Date: 1/28/13 <br />Item No.: 9.a <br />City Manager Approval <br />�,..� <br />BACKGROUND <br />Each year the City Council is asked to adopt a Fee Schedule which establishes the fees and charges for <br />service for the City's regulatory functions. The Council adopted the 2013 Fee Schedule back on November <br />19, 2012. This Schedule included an amount for pawn shop transaction fees related to the City's <br />participation in the City of Minneapolis' Automated Pawn Shop (APS) tracking system. <br />The Police Department was recently informed that the City of Minneapolis is raising the fee charged to <br />customers of their APS system by $0.30 cents per transaction, effective February 1, 2013. It is <br />recommended that the City increase its transaction fee charged to local pawn shops by a commensurate <br />amount to recoup our costs. This would increase Roseville's pawn shop fee from $2.60 per transaction to <br />$2.90. <br />POLICY OBJECTIVE <br />Adopting an annual fee schedule is consistent with governmental best practices and ensures that the City's <br />regulatory functions are properly funded. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACTS <br />Based on the recommended fee adjustments, it is projected that revised fees will generate revenues <br />sufficient to cover the City's regulatory costs. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the revised 2013 Fee Schedule as attached. <br />REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION <br />Approve the attached Ordinance adopting the �evised 2013 Fee Schedule, which shall go into effect upon <br />publication. <br />Prepared by: Chris Miller, Finance Director <br />Attachments: A: Ordinance adopting the revised 2013 Fee Schedule <br />B: Excerpt of the revised 2013 Fee Schedule <br />C: LcYtcr datcd January 1, 2013 from thc City of Minneapolis <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
