If the development proposed in the application does not seek to avoid impact on existing Wetlands, but instead contemplates filling, draining, excavation, or modification of existing Wetlands, the City’s costs for administration and adjudication of the application will be increased to an amount many times the $75.00 fee charged as an application fee. Prior to issuance of a Zoning Permit and Building Permit, the applicant shall reimburse the City for all wetlands evaluation fees, wetlands engineering fees, civil engineering consulting fees, environmental engineering consulting fees, planning consulting fees, inspection fees, hearing and publication costs, fees for legal services, and administrative or professional costs reasonably and necessarily incurred by the City in processing an application for a Zoning Permit and Building Permit and/or an application for subdivision approval under the terms of these regulations and other provisions of the City Code. The Zoning Administrator is authorized to bill an applicant for actual costs incurred during the pendency of proceedings under this Chapter. Failure of the applicant to pay such billings within 10 days of the billing date shall be grounds for the City Council to suspend further proceedings regarding the application or to deny the application.
