City Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: December 18, 2023
To: City Council
From: Kat Sorensen, City Manager
Subject: Resolution 2023-134: Adopting the Calendar Year 2024 City of Seward Fee
Schedule
Background and justification:
Seward City Code in various titles clarifies that "fees shall be set by resolution of the City Council". These
fees are necessary and appropriate in order to recoup at least a portion of the cost of delivering the various
services and related supplies to the public. While many of the charges associated with electric, water, and
wastewater utility costs are included in the tariff; other costs such as permits, inspections, and licenses are not.
The 2024 Fee Schedule represents the costs of services not listed in City Code or the 2024 Tariff documents.
