updates to such plans; zoning expertise permitting code review and zoning updates to coordinate
with current development trends and standards, development plan review; and, GIS services

reduced; and,

that the City enter into contracts with other municipalities for the use of these services based
upon the requests of such municipalities thereby ensuring the continuing availability and

Community Development Department to the City; and,
2. That the rate charged to other municipalities for the services rendered by a City
employee or the use of a City's system be no less than the cost of the City for the same services.
