Administrative fees may be charged at the time of application
as determined from time to time by resolution of the Mayor and Common
Council. Said fees shall be commensurate with those costs incurred
in the processing, review and evaluation of a permit application for
development in the floodplain district. Such costs may include but
are not limited to consultant fees for certification of the as-built
condition of structures, floodplain delineations, environmental impact
characterizations, staff assignments, attorneys' fees and other
related costs. In that connection, the City may engage and/or hire
agents, consultants, registered engineers, attorneys and others with
regard to the requirements of this chapter and may assess the charges
and expenses associated therewith to the applicant as a part of the
administrative fees.
