§ 17.64.080. Fees.

The village board shall establish a schedule of fees for building permits, occupancy certificates, sign permits, appeals, amendments and special uses. The schedule of fees shall be posted in the village clerk's office and the zoning administrator's office and may be altered or amended only by the village board.

Until all applicable fees have been paid in full, no action shall be taken on any application or appeal.

A.

Reimbursement of Certain Professional Fees. Where as a condition precedent to the establishment or modification of a use, this title requires that the owner or other person in control of a lot demonstrate compliance with any performance standard or other regulation imposed by this title, the person seeking to establish or modify the use shall reimburse the village for professional fees incurred by the village in connection with the evaluation of the proposed use or modification of use including, without limitation, fees paid to or billed by the village engineer or village attorney in connection with the review of any calculations or other documents or data which the person seeking to establish or modify the use is required to submit in order to demonstrate compliance with this title.

B.

Reimbursement of Expenses of Publication. At the time of application, the applicant shall in addition pay an amount estimated by the zoning administrator to cover the expense of publishing notice of any public hearing required in connection with any application including, without limitation, any application for an annexation or pre-annexation agreement. In the event that the amount estimated by the zoning administrator is less than the actual expense incurred for the purpose of publishing notice, the applicant shall in addition pay the difference between the estimated amount actually paid by the applicant and the actual cost. In the event that the actual cost is less than the amount estimated by the zoning administrator, then the applicant shall be refunded the difference between the actual cost and the amount paid.
