Council adopts ordinance to update city fee schedule; changes effective on October water bills

The Euless City Council approved Ordinance No. 24-65, which updates multiple service and utility fees in Chapter 30 of the city's Code of Ordinances.

City Manager Barker summarized the changes, noting they address building fees, fire prevention, water and wastewater service rates, industrial wastewater fees and several planning and zoning fees. "If approved, those changes would become effective with bills for the water with bills dated on or after October 1," Barker said. Councilmember Price moved to approve the ordinance and Mayor Pro Tem Bynum seconded; the chair called for votes and the motion passed.

No roll-call vote totals were listed in the transcript. The ordinance's redline and fee schedule were described as contained in the meeting packet for council consideration; Barker said the packet shows the specific fee changes and effective timing tied to water billing.
