APPLICATION FEES & DEPOSITS
Fees and deposits are intended to cover the full cost for processing applications. They are not intended to cover the cost for interpretation
of ordinances or for long-range planning. Applicants seeking development which requires more than one type of review (such as site plans
and conditional use permits) must pay all applicable fees and deposits. Applicant acknowledges and agrees that Applicant’s failure to pay
City costs over the base fee amounts, as charged monthly by the City, may result in the City pursuing any or all legal remedies available,
including but not limited to liening Property in the amount owed; prosecution for violation of the City’s current fee resolution and City land
development or division ordinances; issuance of a stop work order, non-issuance of building permits for Property, or cessation of related
proceedings; set-off against any reimbursement owed; and turning amounts owed over to a collection agency.
Application Deposits: Certain application fees are represented by a deposit amount. Applicants shall be charged for actual processing costs
incurred by the City. City staff time shall be monitored for applications which require a deposit in lieu of a non-refundable fee. Any unused
portion of the deposit shall be returned to Applicant upon completion of the application process, conditions of approval, and any ensuing
appeals. Any additional costs incurred beyond the deposit amount shall be charged to and paid by Applicant on a monthly basis. Applicant
agrees that Applicant’s failure to pay these amounts triggers City’s option to pursue any or all remedies, as listed above.
Application Fees: Fixed fees are non-refundable and are based on average application processing costs rounded to the nearest $25.
Technical Review/Publication Deposit: The actual costs charged to the City for technical review of land use applications, including but are
not limited to City’s planning, public works, engineering, administration, legal, wetland specialists, geologists, biologists, arborist, and any
other services provided in processing Application, shall be charged to Applicant, at the rate(s) charged to the City. In addition, the actual
costs of preparing and mailing notices to abutting property owners or others required to be notified, the costs of publishing notices in
newspapers, and any other mandated costs shall be charged to Applicant. Such costs shall be adjusted as soon as the specific amounts are
known. Applicant agrees that any deficiencies shall be collected from Applicant, and that Applicant’s failure to pay these amounts triggers
City’s option to pursue any or all remedies, as listed above.

REQUEST FOR CONSOLIDATION OF LAND DEVELOPMENT AND/OR LAND DIVISION APPLICATIONS
I hereby request that my applications be consolidated. I understand that by consolidating these applications, any limited land use action
(site review, partition, subdivision) that is combined with a quasi-judicial action (variance, conditional use permit, or other action requiring a
public hearing) may be subject to a public hearing and the 14-day limitation for written comments will be waived. Wetland Variances
requiring a joint decision by the City Council and Veneta Planning Commission may not be combined with any other land use hearing.

GENERAL INFORMATION FOR LAND USE APPLICATIONS
(1) Petitions, applications and appeals provided for in this ordinance shall be made on forms prescribed by the City.
(2) An applicant shall be advised that all permits or zone changes necessary for a development project may be merged into a consolidated
review process. Zone changes and permits required through the application of the overlay district and discretionary permit
procedures shall be available for a consolidated permit process. For purposes of this ordinance, a consolidated permit process shall
mean that the hearing body shall, to the greatest extent possible, apply concurrent notice, public hearing and decision making
procedures to the permits and zone changes which have been consolidated for review.
(3) Applications shall be accompanied by plans and specifications drawn to scale, showing the actual shape and dimensions of the lot to
be built upon; the sizes and locations on the lot of all existing and proposed structures; the intended use of each structure; the
number of families, if any, to be accommodated thereon; the relationship of the property to the surrounding area and such oth er
information as is needed to determine conformance with this ordinance.

the comment is directed, precludes appeal based on that criterion.
(5) Approval or denial of a land use regulation or limited land use application shall be based upon and accompanied by a brief statement
that explains the criteria and standards considered relevant to the decision, states the facts relied upon and explains the justification
for the decision based on the criteria standards and facts set forth.
