1. Fees are established by Council resolution. Applicable fees shall be paid at the time of application and at any other time additional fees are incurred.

2. The permit fees may be based on the nature or size of the permitted area.

3. The applicable fees shall be doubled if the construction activity is commenced prior to permit issuance, except where an emergency situation has been recognized by the City. Payment of the doubled fee shall not preclude the City from taking any other enforcement actions within its authority. The City may waive doubling of the fee if the applicant is shown to have acted in good faith.

4. The fee necessary to resubmit an application for an expired permit shall be one-half of the otherwise applicable fee. [Ord. NS-2176, 2012]
