§ 12.08.100. Miscellaneous.

(a)

The fees and charges established herein may be amended from time to time by ordinance of the city council upon recommendation of the public works director. Any such amendments shall be based on changes in the city's costs of collection, treating and/or disposing of industrial sewage, to include, but not be limited to, any changes in those charges levied by the City of Yakima for usage of the Regional Sewage Treatment Plant, and changes in the costs of providing sampling, laboratory and miscellaneous services. In determining whether there have been changes in the costs of providing service, the city council may consider the city's expenses associated with obtaining services from private laboratories and other third persons, as well as the city's own administrative and other costs.

(b)

The director of public works shall maintain a schedule of current rates, fees and charges, and shall post such schedule conspicuously, and make copies available to all interested persons. Upon request, the director of public works shall prepare an estimate of annual rates, fees and charges for an industrial discharger.
