<br />CITY MANAGER ON DISPOSITION OF ANNEXATION FEES. The Clerk read the report which read in part as follows;
<br />Section 82 of the Charter, governing disposition of public moneys, provides in part as
<br />follows: "All city officials - - empowered to collect money for fees - - or other mumicipal
<br />charges, shall collect the same - - turn them into the city treasury daily - - and report
<br />the same to the city auditor weekly. Al such money - - shall be credited to the General
<br />Fund of the city, and shall be applicable to any purpose to which the Council may
<br />appropriate them . . ." ,
<br />Therefore, in my opinion, it is the intent of the Charter that,all fees, which would
<br />include annexation fees, should be handled in the above manner.
<br />Councilman Weiss read a prepared statement which is on file in the City Clerk's office. In his statement,
<br />Councilman Weiss stated that it was his belief that, in all discussions leading to the adoption of an
<br />annexation fees, it was tacitly understood, that receipts therefrom were intended to reimburse the city for
<br />its investments in Capital Projects and that they would be applied to the same purpose, that is, their
<br />expansion and improvement as demanded by our continuted growth and the demand of the increasing population.
<br />Councilman Weiss moved that the City Attorney be requested to prepare and submit for study and ordinance
<br />that will clearly set forth the intent and the procedure to the effect that the Council shall appropriate
<br />annually to the Capital Projects Fund, an amount equal to receipts from annexa^tions fees, seconded by
<br />Councilman Stout. Councilman Granger wanted to be sure that the motion wasn't in conflict with the Charter.
<br />He was informed that this was not in conflict. Councilman Stout spoke on the question and stated his
<br />reasons for seconding the motion. The motion carried unanimously on roll call.
