MODIFIED MISCELLANEOUS FEES FY 2 014-2 01 S <br />Proposed modifications to existing fees are fee rate adjustments to the Miscellaneous Fee Schedule. <br />FINANCE & MANAGEMENT SERVICES <br />1) Credit Card Processing Fee (fee waived by Council through June 2014) <br />Existing Fee (waived): Per transaction $3.60 <br />Proposed Fee: Extend waiver through June, 2015 <br />In 2012, the Council approved a moratorium on the imposition of the Credit Card Processing Fee, as a <br />means to encourage customers to utilize more convenient payment methods. This has resulted in almost <br />an increase of 50% from 2013 in the use of credit cards by our residents in malting utilities and dog <br />licensing payments. Staff recommends extending the credit card processing fee waiver through June, <br />2015. <br />POLICE DEPARTMENT <br />2) Downtown Event Litter Control Deposit <br />Existing Fee: $300.00 <br />Proposed Fee: $500.00 <br />This fee is being increased to recover fall cost to the City for sweeping, trash removal and power washing <br />after downtown events; and encourage event promoters to be more responsible. Any unused portion of the <br />deposit is refunded. <br />3) Police Security Services - Lieutenant <br />Existing Fee: $105.00 <br />Proposed Fee: $69.83 <br />This fee is being modified to reflect the hourly straight time rate for a Police Lieutenant. The Police <br />Department collects around $300,000 for special event police security services on an annual basis. Fees <br />will generate full cost recovery and range from $50 an hour for a PSO/PCO to $97 an hour for a Police <br />Sergeant. This modified fee reflects the average hourly straight time rate for a Police Lieutenant. <br />87 <br />75B -2 -96 <br />
