Motion carried unanimously. DISCUSS DEVELOPMENT FEE COLLECTION – DEVELOPER INSTALLED IMPROVEMENTS – CONSIDER AMENDING FEE ORDINANCE Mr. Dickinson explained the Council is requested to discuss the merits of extending the expired Pilot Program for Developer Installed Improvements to allow developers the ability to pay certain fixed fees per lot at time of building permit, rather than at the time the final plat is recorded at the County. Mr. Dickinson reviewed the information with the Council. Councilmember Goodrich thought with this attached ordinance, there is no increase in fees, it is just extending the program. Mr. Dickinson stated there is no increase in fees. He explained an instance where the cost could increase is if the two years expire and interest is charged. Mayor Trude asked if there is a possibility that they would revert to past practices. Mr. Dickinson stated when this was put in place in 2012, they amended the fee ordinance which is updated each year. The reference to the development contract outlines the fee program and then by adding it to the fee schedule they have the authorization to collect it as such, future extensions will be determined when the annual updates to the fee schedule is done. Motion by Goodrich, Seconded by Holthus, to approve the attached fee ordinance. Motion carried unanimously. (See Ordinance 448) APPOINT A COMMUNITY CENTER ADVISORY COMMISSIONER Mayor Trude stated the Council had a Special Meeting before the Council meeting to interview candidates for the Community Center Advisory Commission position.
