To the extent that any fee set in this resolution has not been validly authorized, the fee shall not be assessed or collected unless and until the governing body has validly authorized the fee and such authorization is effective.
Section 8. Any fee under this resolution may be waived only by vote of the governing body. The governing body will weigh the fairness to others paying a similar fee if the fee is waived, whether the requesting party is a for-profit or a not-for-profit entity and the community benefit versus loss of revenue that is offsetting the cost of the service.
Section 9. That all other parts of any prior resolution or City fee schedule which conflict with this Resolution are hereby repealed.
Section 10. ADOPTED by the governing body this 30th day of December 2025.
