To: City Council
Through: Kat Sorensen, City Manager
From: Sully Jusino, Finance Director
Subject: Resolution 2025-004: Approving the 2025 City of Seward Fee Schedule
Background and justification:
In various titles, Seward City Code states that fees shall be set by resolution of the City Council.
These fees are necessary and appropriate 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 sewer utility costs are included in
the tariff; other costs such as permits, inspections, and licenses are not. The 2025 Fee Schedule
represents the costs of services not listed in City Code or the 2025 City of Seward Tariff
documents.
