Type: Ordinance Status: Passed
File created: 5/16/2017 In control: Planning and Building Services
On agenda: 5/23/2017 Final action: 5/23/2017
Title: MINING FEES SUBJECT: Consider an amendment to Lassen County Code Section 3.18.021 (Planning Department fees for surface mining and related activities) to include in the “Annual Surface Mine Administration and Operations Monitoring Fee” a minimum fee amount of $1,000 per site and a maximum fee amount of $3,850 per site, regardless of mining status. As the County fee is currently calculated as a percentage of the State fee (75%), a set County fee maximum per site will prevent continual increases due to ongoing increases to the State fee maximum. FISCAL IMPACT: None. The revenue generated by this fee is expected to remain consistent with previous years. ACTION REQUESTED: 1) Adopt Ordinance; or 2) provide direction to staff.
