A fee schedule shall be established in accordance to the Code of the Town of Milo, specifically Chapter 191, Fees.
A.
In addition to the fees required in this article, the applicant shall
reimburse the Town for the cost of professional consultation fees
and other expenditures attributable to an application. The Town may
also require that the applicant deposit a lump sum in order to retain
such consultants. In the event that such sum is insufficient to fund
the necessary consulting services, the Town may require additional
deposits. Such payment(s) shall:
(1)
Be deposited with the Town Clerk who shall establish a line item
for this purpose. Expenditures from this line item may be made at
the direction of the Town Clerk without further appropriation.
(2)
Pay only for the expenditures rendered in connection with the project
for which an application has been submitted by the applicant.
B.
The failure of the applicant to pay any fee or incurred cost shall
be grounds for denial of an application, permit and/or certificate.
Lastly, any outstanding fee or incurred cost shall be charged against
the property, and shall constitute a lien thereon in favor of the
Town, and the amount of such fees and incurred costs shall be entered
on the tax rolls as being due and payable. Such fees and incurred
costs may also be recovered in any other lawful manner.
C.
At the completion of the Town's review of an application, any
excess amount in the line item attributable to the application shall
be repaid to the applicant. A final report of said line item shall
be made available to the applicant by the Town Clerk if requested.
