§ 174.070 PERMIT FEES.
   (A)   A variable permit fee shall be collected at the time the required application package is submitted and will include the total cost of administration, management, engineering and inspection charges of the permitting process. Permit fees are as established by resolution pursuant to § 169.004.
   (B)   Fees collected shall be used to offset the cost of the Stormwater Management and Conservation, site plan, and subdivision review service and shall be allocated to provide recovery of cost to the department.
   (C)   The fees set forth in this section shall be increased by four percent (4%) (rounded to the nearest dollar) each fiscal year. Should any decrease in such fees be warranted in any given year, they shall also be decreased annually by that percentage that accurately reflects the reduction of permits requested and the specific and ascertainable resulting reduction in funds needed to pay the city costs to manage all services and time needed to issue and monitor the permits required by this section.
