Scheduling Of Public Hearing To Receive Comments On Dakota County 2023 Recommended Fee Schedules
end
PURPOSE/ACTION REQUESTED
Schedule a public hearing for 9:00 a.m. on October 18, 2022, to receive comments on the recommended 2023 Dakota County fee schedules.
SUMMARY
The County Manager recommends that the County Board adopt a fee schedule for 2023. The recommended fees are for services provided throughout the organization.
Minn. Stat. ? 373.41 authorizes the County Board to establish fees for various services provided to the public. This law also requires the County Board to hold a public hearing prior to adopting such fees. This action will direct County staff to provide notice of the public hearing on the 2023 fees to be held at 9:00 a.m. on October 18, 2022. The hearing will be held in the Dakota County Board Room at 1590 Highway 55, Hastings, Minnesota 55033. The statute authorizing County fees does not require any specific type of notice for the public hearing and does not require publication in the County's designated official newspaper. Therefore, the County Board can direct staff to provide notice using the method it determines is the most appropriate or cost effective for this public hearing. County staff recommends the notice be posted on the County website, instead of publication in the official newspaper, as this form of notice is likely to be seen by more County residents than will occur through publication in the official newspaper.
The recommended fees will be presented and discussed at the General Government and Policy Committee meeting on October 4, 2022.
