[HISTORY: Adopted by the Mayor and Council
of the Borough of Spring Lake 4-3-2007 by Ord. No. 2007-008. Amendments noted
where applicable.]
It has been found that the procedure for amending
fee schedules through the enactment of individual ordinances is both
time-consuming and economically unfeasible. The Borough of Spring
Lake enacts the following chapter to allow for the efficient, orderly
and prompt adjustment of all Borough fees by resolution.
The title of this chapter shall be "Fees," and
it shall affect all present and future local ordinances, boards, commissions
and public agencies within the jurisdictional limits of the Borough
of Spring Lake, New Jersey.
As used in this chapter, the following words
shall have the following meanings:
The governing body of the Borough of Spring Lake, New Jersey.
Any lawful charge pursuant to the general Code of the Borough
of Spring Lake, including but not limited to all admission charges,
rentals of Borough-owned lockers at either pavilion along Ocean Avenue,
beach badges, pool fees, users fees, application fees, land use fees,
water and sewer use and connection charges, membership fees, program
charges, dues, permits, special permits, license fees or any charge
or disbursement required by a duly constituted board, commission or
committee of the Borough of Spring Lake, New Jersey.
Any monetary assessment imposed as a result of a failure
to comply with any local ordinance, rule or regulation within the
jurisdiction of the Borough of Spring Lake, New Jersey.
All fees imposed by the Borough of Spring Lake,
as enumerated in the Borough's Master Fee Schedule, may, from time
to time, be adjusted to reflect either an increase or decrease upon
a resolution duly enacted by the Council. While the Council shall
adopt a Master Fee Schedule on an annual basis, there is no limitation
on the number of amendments the Council shall be able to adopt through
a formal resolution.
Upon enactment of a resolution pursuant to § 177-4 of this chapter, said resolution shall be filed with the Borough Clerk, with copies forwarded to all applicable boards, commissions, committees and departments of the Borough of Spring Lake. It shall be the responsibility of the Borough Clerk to maintain an official record of all Borough fees and the changes thereto.
If any section, subsection, paragraph, sentence,
or any part of this chapter is determined to be unconstitutional and
invalid, such judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the
remainder of the chapter, not directly involved in the controversy
in which such judgment shall have been rendered.
This chapter repeals any inconsistent ordinance
or part or parts thereof.
This chapter shall take effect immediately upon
its final passage and publication as required by law.
