Eagle Point City Zoning Code
CHAPTER 17
66 FEE SCHEDULE
§ 17.66.010 Purpose.
The purpose of the planning fee schedule and methodology is to reasonably assess and receive reimbursement for any city expenses and staff time related to compliance with development criteria in the comprehensive plan, zoning, subdivision, and all land development related ordinances.
(Ord. 2021-01 § 1 (Exh. A))
§ 17.66.020 Cost accruals and invoicing for additional city expenses.
City costs shall begin accruing at application submittal and include, but not be limited to, publishing legal notifications, mailings, recordings, attorney fees, engineering, and planning or other consultant fees. Excepting preapplication review, costs shall be collected at the time of application for required approvals. Preapplication review shall be considered as a separate item from formal land use application submittal. Fees for this process shall become due and payable when an official city response on a specific project is requested by a potential applicant or developer. Allowance is made, without cost, for the informal exchange of information between staff and potential applicants as part of departmental customer service. For example, there is no fee for discussing a preliminary subdivision plat in relation to zoning, lot sizes or basic street configuration for connectivity with other developments. A fee may be due for reviewing a tentative plat to determine whether it is complete for official application purposes.
If an application is withdrawn before the planning process is completed, fees shall be reimbursed in an amount equal to the amount paid less the costs for city staff time devoted to the processing of the application.
If appropriate, projects with costs exceeding initial application fees shall be invoiced for the difference. Payment of said invoices shall be made prior to the issuance of any final development signoffs, certificates of occupancy or business licenses.
