RESOLUTION 23-001
2023 CITY MASTER FEE SCHEDULE
The City of Shorewood and its activities as a municipality requires setting forth fees and charges
to reimburse the city for administrative and other expenses related to the issuing of permits,
licenses and other services; and must maintain a relevant schedule of fees and regularly audit
their effectiveness.
The City of Shorewood has established fees for licensing, permits, programs, and services that
include but are not limited to building, zoning, planning, business, community center, animal,
park and recreation, rentals, solicitors, fire prevention, utility, franchise, administrative citations,
and other miscellaneous fees that further the health, safety and welfare of the community at
large. All fees and charges shall be fixed and determined by the council and set forth in the
master fee schedule which will be adopted by resolution and uniformly enforced. All fees have
been reviewed and audited for their effectiveness and the following fees have been amended as
follows:
Stormwater Fees: A MS4 Illicit Discharge Appeal fee of $200 is being proposed, referencing
City Code section 907.11 (Page 9 of City Fee Schedule) to allow for an appeal process as it
relates to MS4 Illicit Discharge.
Building Permit Fees: Fee minimums for Plumbing and Mechanical flat fee permits were no
longer covering the cost to issue those permits or provide the inspections. These fees (Page 13
of City Fee Schedule) were increased from $35 to $60 or 2 for $100.
Utility Rates: Ordinance 593, which was passed by the city council in September of this year,
allows for Water, Sanitary Sewer, and Stormwater Management Utility Rate increases (Pages 8
& 9 of Fee Schedule) which become effective January 2023 and are incorporated into the City's
Master Fee Schedule.
Shorewood Community & Event Center Fees: Community Center Fees (Pages 17 & 18 of the
City Fee Schedule) were updated to include a reduction in the various rates for rooms based on
time and day and eliminated the 4-hour block and replaced them with broader time windows for
rentals and added full day rates for Fridays and Saturdays for the banquet room. Partial day
rentals were limited to 9AM-1 PM or 4pm-12Midnight rental windows. These changes were
made to increase the capacity for weekend rentals and allow time to clean and reset between
rental groups. A 5-hour time block was added for the conference room on the weekends as it
can be used for bridal room, event headquarters, etc. for renters of the banquet hall. The fees
for table linens were increased, compostable items were removed, and coffee options reflect
what is currently available at the center.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Shorewood the 2023
City Master Fee Schedule for the City of Shorewood is adopted. ADOPTED BY THE CITY
COUNCIL of the City of Shorewood this 9th day of January .
