F. There shall be paid by an applicant a Village impact fee of a sum

[Added 8-22-2013 by L.L. No. 9-2013; amended 4-27-2017 by L.L. No. 15-2017]
(1) The Board of Trustees shall have the discretion to decrease, from
time to time, the Village impact fee as a case or application may
require, upon a necessary showing of hardship or inability to pay.
Such application for a decrease of the Village impact fee shall be
made to the Superintendent of Buildings, who shall then make a recommendation
to the Board of Trustees. The final decision to decrease the fee shall
rest exclusively with the Board of Trustees.
[Amended 9-26-2013 by L.L. No. 11-2013]
Legal fees under this article shall not exceed $10,000 (formerly
$3,500), unless in connection with a subdivision, partition, or a
site plan review involving property of five or more acres or any application
for a change of zone or for a special use permit, in which event,
legal fees shall not exceed $30,000 (formerly $10,000).
Notwithstanding any other section of the Village Code, in the event that the amount of the deposit required in §
64-2 of this article for services other than legal fees is exhausted, then the applicant shall, at such time as may be fixed by the appropriate Board, pay to the village an additional deposit in the same amount as the original deposit. This shall be done as often as required until the conclusion of the application. In the event that the amount of the deposit, including that for legal fees, shall exceed said cost of the conclusion of the particular application, the unused portion of the deposit shall be returned to the applicant, provided that the applicant shall, within six months thereof, file with the Village Clerk a written demand for such refund. All unclaimed deposits shall become the property of the village six months after the filing of the final determination by the village.
[Amended 8-22-2013 by L.L. No. 10-2013]
A. There shall be a moratorium on the issuance of any Village permit
or license, including but not limited to a building permit or certificate
of occupancy, to any individual or corporation or combination of the
two, including but not limited to any limited liability company and/or
corporation, whose owner, shareholder, affiliate or assign shall have
existing arrears related to any part of Village government, due and
owing the Village of Manorhaven.
B. An appeal may be made to the Board of Trustees by a written submission as to why the moratorium as stated in Subsection
A is not applicable or that, upon a necessary showing of hardship, such a moratorium would be inequitable or unjust, under the circumstances. Such review shall be limited to a case-by-case basis. Such appeal shall be made to the Village Clerk, who shall then, after a review of the application, make a recommendation to the Board of Trustees. The final decision to lift or affirm any moratorium as outlined above, shall rest exclusively with the Board of Trustees.
A charge of $20 will be added to any amount
owing to the village where a tendered payment of such an amount was
by check or other written order which was returned for insufficient
funds.
