Title
An ordinance revising the schedule of administrative fees relating to engineering, planning, zoning and subdivision applications to establish a fee for “Application to Establish a Compliance Date for a Nonconforming Use” and specifically repealing Ordinance No. 4192.
Body
The amortization of nonconforming uses ordinance allows citizens to request amortization of nonconforming uses in the community. Like other procedural applications, fees are charged to offset actual costs of processing the request. For amortization of nonconforming uses, staff gathered information from other cities regarding the actual costs incurred for a basic amortization process, which is approximately $4,000. Staff is proposing that the City of Mesquite establish a fee of $4,300, which consists of $4,000 for the basic amortization process, plus the existing $300 application fee to appeal a request to the Board of Adjustment.
Recommended/Desired Action
Staff recommends approval of the ordinance.
