Where the fee listed in Section 16.72.010 is “Cost recovery,” the city will charge the applicant for all costs incurred to process the application or action. For land use applications or actions with a fee greater than one thousand dollars, an applicant may request, and the city shall have the discretion to agree, that a cost recovery method be used as an alternative to the fee stated herein. If the city agrees to use the cost recovery method, the applicant will be responsible for all costs associated with the application or action, including administrative costs of tracking the city’s expenses. The director of planning and community development is authorized to establish procedures for administering the cost recovery option. (Ord. 3390-14 § 6, 2014.)
