pointed out that there are "Several items that are very, very - heavy, and I think the
percentage of moving forward is just a little hard to swallow."
Commissioner Gennell added, "Another thing that would have been helpful here while
we are considering this would have been a chart with the Impact Fees, to get a true
picture of what the developers are having to pay when they come in." Commissioner
Gennell then stated, "With all the questions that have been raised here tonight, I would
just as soon table this to a future date and they can bring us back some more information,
relative to the questions that the Commission raised." Commissioner Gennell also spoke
about Occupational Licenses and said, "Why couldn't we roll this into that, so that they
are all considered together, once every two (2) years?" Attorney Garganese responded by
saying, "Let me go back with the City Manager and see when the last time you looked at
Occupational Licenses Fees - and if you are able to consider an adjustment to them at
this time - if you want to roll everything in together you could, but you may have to
adopt all of these fees by Ordinance." Attorney Garganese added, "Or you can consider
an Ordinance and a Resolution at the same time."
