Dannheisser <br />City Attorney <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />It is recommended that the City Commission adopt, by motion, the attached <br />REVISED resolution granting fee reductions for bringing existing structures into <br />compliance with the law. <br />REASONS <br />As you are aware, many businesses and structures in the City are improperly <br />licensed and permitted. The permit fees to have these businesses apply for the <br />proper zoning are very costly. This City's goal is to work with the business owners <br />and property owners to achieve compliance with existing laws, without imposing <br />excessive costs. The incentives remain the same but the highlighted revisions are <br />necessary to clarify the purpose and intent of the City. More specific language is <br />incorporated to stress that although the City is making concessions in the form of <br />reduced fees the City is still obligated to adhere to Federal, State, and Local codes, <br />and to continue enforcement action during the amnesty period. <br />ADDITIONAL INFORMATION <br />The amnesty period will remain unchanged, expiring on May 31, 1999. Other <br />revisions attempt to provide the City with additional tools to help gain compliance <br />with the Code. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Christopher D. Steers <br />Code & Licensing Enforcement Officer <br />0 <br />
