During the process Council Member Nielsen felt that the fees being charged for Vendors needed a second look as they did not seem to be equitable based on other fees being charged. Staff has taken a second look at the Vendor fees and agrees with Councilor Nielsen’s assessment. When staff calculated the fees, the same formula was used as had been in the past looking at the daily fee and what it would equate to in an annual or 6 month fee. The Clerk’s office has re-evaluated the staff time needed to administer the Vendor License program and it has determined that a fee of $50 a day is sufficient. Staff recommends changing the Annual Vendor fee to $140 to match the Business License fee for a new business and covers the extra time it takes to get the proper approvals from the landowners. This fee would cover a Vendor that is in one location for a year. The Vendor would, however, have to pay the $50 a day fee if they chose to move locations. Staff would also recommend eliminating the 6 month permit fee. These fees more accurately cover staff time to administer.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Direct staff to schedule a public hearing to adopt the revised fees for Vendor Permits.  RECORD OF COUNCIL ACTION  MEETING DATE ACTION
