[Adopted 2-13-1996 by Ord. No. 96-01]
This article shall be applicable to the following:
A. All applications for certified survey maps and all subdivisions of
land as defined by Chapter 236 of the Wisconsin Statutes.
B. All applications for condominiums as defined by Chapter 703 of the
Wisconsin Statutes.
C. Any application for the rezoning of land or for a special use permit.
D. All site plan and architectural review applications as required by Chapter
500, Zoning, of the Code of the Town of Barton.
A deposit of $2,000 is required for any project where the applicant is creating a land division exceeding four lots. Further, the Town Board for the Town of Barton may require an additional deposit to be made by the applicant to secure ongoing fees listed below. If the applicant fails or refuses to make the additional deposit, which will not exceed the minimum initial deposit, the Town Board for the Town of Barton may refuse to process or continue to process an application or may revoke any permit or approval sought or issued as stated in §
267-3 herein.
A. Recoverable costs which shall be considered by the Town of Barton
as a part of the application fees shall include the following:
(2) Court reporter costs (if required by either the Town Plan Commission
or Town Board).
(3) Document preparation and review.
(4) All professional, expert, and technical consultant services retained
by the Town and rendered in review of the application, improvements,
administration, checking, and/or inspections relating to the application,
including, but not limited to, the Town of Barton's consulting professional
engineer, consulting planner, or other professional, expert or technical
services.
(5) Legal review, consultation, and advice by the Town Attorney.
(7) Document recordation (if required).
B. Any amounts left in the deposit account at the conclusion of the
process shall be promptly refunded to the applicant.
No application filed pursuant to this article shall be considered
complete unless and until all fees due pursuant to this article have
been paid. Every approval granted and every permit issued pursuant
to this article, whether or not expressly so conditioned, shall be
deemed to be conditioned upon payment of the required fees. The failure
to fully pay any such fee when due shall be grounds for the Town of
Barton to refuse to process, or to continue to process, an application
and for denying or revoking any permit or approval sought or issued
with respect to the land or development to which the unpaid fee relates.
The amount of all Town of Barton application fees shall be established
by the Town Board and subject to change on an annual basis. All professional
fees, expert and other technical consultant service fees and legal
fees shall be reimbursed to the Town of Barton at the actual costs
incurred by the Town of Barton as established in the Fee Schedule.
[Adopted 3-20-2012 by Ord. No. 12-002]
The Town of Barton Town Board on an annual basis shall adopt
a resolution that approves a Fee Schedule for any and all fees and
costs which may legally be charged by the Town to any person, firm
or entity. The resolution for fees and charges, upon approval by the
Town Board, shall be set forth in a Fee Schedule which shall be posted
by the Town Clerk every year. The Fee Schedule shall be applicable
except as required under Wisconsin law or where a specific provision
of the Code specifies the fees or costs which must otherwise be charged.
