The intent of §§ 34.01 through 34.03 is to provide the City Council with a rational process for setting fees and charges. The philosophy is to base user fees on cost-of-service so the city will be able to recover the costs associated with delivering a service to an individual or group. By recovering the cost of providing a service, the rest of the community is not subsidizing services benefitting individuals. (Prior Code, § 2.600) (Ord. 1989-04, passed 2-13-1989)
