Section 2.020 of the Eugene, Code, 1971 authorizes the City Manager to determine <br /> and set fees and charges to be imposed by the City for services, goods, use of municipal property, <br /> and license and permits. In accordance with the procedures set forth therein, and the further <br /> authority o Section 7.130 of the Eugene Code, 1971, Administrative Order No. 58-00-19-F was <br /> adopted on ugust 31, 2000 establishing fees for engineering services for privately constructed <br /> public impr vements. <br /> B.

Hourly rates are established at the start of each fiscal year <br /> to recover t full cost of engineering services for each classification of engineering employee. In <br /> addition, the titles of some of the classifications have changed or the classifications no longer exist, <br /> and I therefo e intend to repeal the currently effective fees set forth in Administrative Order No. 58- <br /> 00-19-F and establish fees based on the hourly rates of engineering employees for the 2001-2002 <br /> fiscal year a set forth in the Notice of Intended Fees attached as Exhibit A hereto and incorporated <br /> herein by re rence. <br /> C.
