COMPREHENSIVE FEE SCHEDULE AMENDMENT
Recommendation: That the Council amend the Comprehensive Fee Schedule to allow a
registration and termination fee related to the Domestic Partnership Ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
Council adopted the Domestic Partnership Ordinance on January 5, 2000. The Ordinance
allows for registration and termination fees to be charged.
Surveys of other Cities with like Ordinances have fees that range from $20.00 to $50.00.
It is not certain how much activity the registration and termination will generate.
Currently, the plan is to handle the process on a manual basis. There will be a Certificate
of Registration and a card issued to each member of the partnership. In addition, a
registration form will be filed, maintained and logged by the Office of the City Clerk. The
cost for production of the various forms and purchase of the log, are the only expenses that
