Charges & Fees<br />
Charges and fees are intended to offset costs associated with specific goods and services provided to identifiable<br />
recipients. The revenue category represents approximately 5.9% of the organization’s revenue. Ex<strong>amp</strong>les of user<br />
charges include franchise fees, review fees, recreation participant fees, off-duty police officer charges, and the sale of<br />
miscellaneous goods and services. Revenues within the charges and fees category are expected to decrease 4.6%<br />
compared to the prior year’s amended budget due to an anticipated decrease in plan review fees pertaining to<br />
commercial development activity. Collection forecasts are supported via assumptions regarding the continuation of<br />
customer demand for fee-related goods and/or services, as well as changes to the fee structures.<br />
