Item #’s: 4
Presenter(s): Jaye Monter, Finance Director
Background
The budget is adopted by City Council each year as the financial plan for the City’s fiscal year

from fees for services covering the entire City.
Discussion
Tonight’s presentation will allow Council to review the City’s Fee Schedule and review with
staff reasons behind proposed increases. Any changes from the 2012-2013 fee schedule are
shaded and shown in the 2014 column.
Conclusion

to be answered and to create a greater understanding of the issue at hand.
