recommendation
The City Commission adopt the proposed ordinance.
explanation
During several public meetings beginning May 2, 2017 and continuing through July 3, 2017, Budget and Finance staff presented the "Budget Workshop for the FY2018-2019 Budget Year" to the City Commission. As presented, the proposed FY2018 and FY2019 revenues included a continuation of the policy of 5% scheduled biennial increases of certain Appendix A fees, rates and charges.
On September 21, 2017, the City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 170013, approving the 5% increase in Appendix A fees, rates and charges.
Staff discovered that Ordinance No. 170013 inadvertently omitted an approved stormwater management fee, so this ordinance is being proposed to correct the omission and increase the stormwater management fee from $9.00 to $9.45 per equivalent unit.
CITY ATTORNEY MEMORANDUM
This ordinance requires two readings and will become effective immediately upon approval at second reading.
