SECTION 1. LEGISLATIVE DETERMINATION. The City Council
hereby finds and determines that City planning and enforcement of
zoning and subdivision regulations to a great degree benefit the

enforcement of zoning and property division regulations and the ad-
ministration of regulations dealing with the division, use and
development of land have greatly increased in recent years. That
the administration of many such regulations results in direct and
tangible benefits to individuals greatly in the excess of the benefit
derived therefrom by the public generally. That to the extent that
the costs of administration are ascertainable the same should to a
reasonable degree be borne by the persons specially benefited thereby.
That the Council has determined from staff studies that the fees
hereinafter imposed are levied upon administrative aspects which
benefit individuals more directly than the general public, and that
the fees thus imposed will reimburse the City for only a fair and
reasonable proportion of tht: Ci~y's total administrative costs
incurred therein.
