end
PURPOSE/ACTION REQUESTED
Schedule a public hearing for 9:00 a.m. on November 4, 2025, to receive comments on the recommended 2026 Dakota County fee schedules.
SUMMARY
The County Manager recommends that the County Board adopt fee schedules for 2026. The recommended fees are for services provided throughout the organization.
Minnesota State Statute ? 373.41 authorizes the County Board to establish fees for various services provided to the public. This law also requires the County Board hold a public hearing prior to adopting such fees. This action will direct County staff to provide notice of the public hearing on the 2026 fees to be held at 9:00 a.m. on November 4, 2025. The hearing will be held in the Dakota County Boardroom at 1590 Highway 55, Hastings, Minnesota. County staff recommend a notice be posted in the official newspaper with reference to the County website for more details, as this form of notice is likely to be viewed by more County residents than will occur through publication in the official newspaper only.
