The city manager is authorized to establish reasonable charges for providing copies of city documents, and to establish fees and charges for providing all city services for which the city is authorized by law to impose a fee or charge and such fee or charge is not set elsewhere in the Fife Municipal Code. The city manager shall annually review the schedule of fees and charges established under this section and amend it as necessary, to assure that the city recovers its costs for providing such documents and services. When setting fees and charges for services provided by the parks, recreation and aquatics department, the city manager may also take into account the reasonable and fair market value of those services, but in any event the fee shall not be set higher than the reasonable estimate of the cost to the city of providing the service. The initial schedule of fees and charges established under this section was approved by the city council by the adoption of Resolution 1489.
