§ 22-33. License fees.
(a)
The finance director shall impose nonrefundable fees to recover the administrative costs of processing applications; issuing and renewing general business licenses, special business licenses and employee permits; and administrating this chapter. Such fees shall be established by resolution of the city council, amended from time to time. To the extent the city council determines to be practical, such fees may vary depending on the type of license, permit, or business for the sole purpose of apportioning relative regulatory costs to parties regulated.
(b)
All fees for the issuance, processing, and renewal of permits and licenses shall be paid at the time of filing the application with the finance director. All fees for an appeal shall be paid at the time of and with the filing of the appeal. No application or request for approval or appeal shall be deemed valid or complete until all prescribed fees have been paid.
