The Board of Commissioners hereby establishes a consolidated fee schedule of the Township of Springfield (the schedule).
It is the intent of the Board of Commissioners that all applicable sections of Township Code in which various fees for specific services are established and levied shall be consolidated into this schedule and noted thereon so as to permit a timely review by the Board, staff and the public of all such fees.
All fees contained in this Schedule shall become effective as of January 2004 at the rates listed under the fee column.
A. 
All departments shall review all fees under their respective jurisdiction at least once annually and shall recommend adjustment to those fees as part of the annual budget process.
B. 
The Finance Director, under the direction of the Township Manager, shall prepare an updated consolidated fee schedule with all such departmental recommendations for the Board's consideration as part of the Township Budget Ordinance each year. Any fees not adjusted in a subsequent fiscal year shall continue to be levied at the rate in effect during the previous fiscal year until otherwise enacted by the Board.
Notwithstanding any other provisions herein or of the Township Code, the Board shall be authorized to revise by separate legislation the rate, or any condition for the setting thereof, of any fee contained in the schedule or the Township Code.
