City Administrator Tolsma proposed adding a permit and escrow fee for Excavation under Chapter 32:
Streets. Sidewalks, and Other Public Places and Chapter 36: Telecommunications to ensure the city has
knowledge of any excavations and to cover additional restoration costs. Under Chapter 42: Zoning/Plan-
nin , Tolsma recommended an increase in permit & escrow fees for Variance requests and Conditional
Use Permits as the 4-5-year historical analysis shows costs are exceeding the current fees and escrow
amounts. He also recommended adding a permit fee and escrow for Interim Use Permits and an inspec-
tion fee for Interim Use Permits, Short Term Rentals. Discussion was had. Upon completion of discus-
sion,
