Crafters looking to sell their goods can pay the City a little less to do so, next year.
City council approved the 2016 Fee and Fine Schedule last week, and one of the changes includes a decrease on the hobbyist and artisan license. The license will be going from $33 to $20 next year, with seniors paying even less.
Chief Financial Officer Jenny Krentz said the fee and fine schedule was reviewed by council during the budget deliberations. She said the overall increase is 3.4%, which is consistent with this year’s tax increase.
There's a new $1000 fine for harbouring a pit bull, while dog and cat licenses have decreased.
A cemetery perpetual care and columbarium fee has been added. Many public safety fees remain the same.
The fees and fines go into effect January 1st.
