Applications for Joinders of parcels or lots typically require substantially less technical review and are typically associated with lower chances of negative zoning effects than a subdivision plat review or a de minimis subdivision. Thus, the associated fees should appropriately reflect the level of staff investment and staff is recommending that the city reduce the application fee for Joinder Applications from $500.00 to $100.00. Doing so will also provide a financial incentive for prospective applicants to abide by the City's established application process for joinders. The proposed text amendment is limited to Appendix C of the City's Land Development Code as shown below. If approved, staff will also update the Joinder Application accordingly.
