FEES FOR MINUTES, AGENDAS, TIF AND REVENUE BONDS
Proposed Action
Staff recommends that the Council approve the following motion:
Move that the Hopkins City Council approve Ordinance #91 -695 for
first reading.
This action will amend Chapter Ten of - .the Hopkins City Code to
authorize the charging of fees for copies of documents, TIF
applications, and revenue bond applications.
overview
As part of the ongoing effort to have fees and charges reflect
actual costs, staff is recommending that the City Council
authorize charging for copies of documents as well as TIF and
revenue bond applications and administration. These are separate.
issues that are being brought forward in a single ordinance for
administrative convenience.
The attached documentation provides the background and rationale
for these fees. Setting the fees will be done by separate.
resolutions when Ordinance #91 -695 is approved for second
reading. The Council at this time is only being asked to begin
the process authorizing the charging of fees.
Primary Issues to Consider
o Should these actions be done in separate ordinances?
Staff expects to be bringing before the Council a number
of new fees and charges in the next few months. Each
ordinance involves publication costs and separate
reports. If the Council feels that fees should not be
charged for certain items mentioned in Ordinance #91 -695,.
it can be amended prior to second reading.

CITY OF HOPKINS
MEMORANDUM
DATE: September 11, 1991
TO: Jim Genellie
FROM: Jim Kerrigan
SUBJECT:. Proposed Fees
At the present time, the City does not charge.any fees as relates
to the processing and sale of taxable /tax exempt bond issues.
The practice has been to charge for actual administrative and
legal expenses.
Rather than continuing with the above approach, I am now
recommending that an application process be established along
with a set fee. The fee is proposed to be as follows:
o A nonrefundable application fee of $5,000.
o An administrative fee of 1/4 of 1 of the total bond
issue with a maximum of $10,000. This payment would be
required at the time of bond closing.
The above -fee amounts would be used to reimburse the City for the
following expenses as relates to a specific bond issue:
o Staff review and processing of application.
o City attorney review of bond documents.
o Other required legal counsel.
o Required reporting and administration by City Finance
Department.
Besides the above fee, it is my understanding that an ordinance
needs to be adopted which identifies fees for the following:
o Tax increment application.
o Economic development fund application.
The application fees for these are as follows:
o Preliminary application, 0.
o Final application, $1000 (refundable upon execution of
a redevelopment contract).
o $1000 processing fee subsequent to final application
approval.

MEMORANDUM
Date: September 13, 1991
To: Jim Genellie
From: Steven C. Mielke, City Manager
Subject: Proposed Fees - Minutes and Agendas
The City has historically provided mailed copies of minutes
and agendas to interested individuals for both Planning
Commission and the City Council. At the present time, there
is no written policy to guide staff in the distribution of
these items. I am recommending that the City Council adopt
a policy regarding the distribution of agendas and minutes.
This policy, if adopted would allow for the continued
distribution of minutes and agendas to designated sources
while allowing others who wish to receive mailed copies to
continue doing so, but at a specified charge.
Attached you will. f ind Policy # 3 -F. This proposed policy
discusses who would receive free mailed copies of Council
agendas and minutes as well as policies regarding the
agendas and minutes of other Boards and Commissions. Also
attached are proposed fees to compliment Policy # 3 -F.
The fees, as I understand it, can only be imposed if the
Council adopts an ordinance allowing the fees to be charged.
I would suggest that the City Council review Policy 0 3 -F as
well as the current distribution lists from the Zoning &
Planning Commission and City Council. The Council may wish
to add or reduce the number of names listed on Policy # 3-F.
