A RESOLUTION REPLACING RESOLUTION NO. 2024-029,
AND ADOPTING A REVISED FEE SCHEDULE
WHEREAS, the City Council, through ordinance, has adopted regulations requiring certain
actions and services; and,
WHEREAS, these various ordinances set forth that fees shall be set by resolution; and,
WHEREAS, the cost of providing these various services consistent with applicable codes,
regulations, and policies periodically increase and decrease, or certain services or practices are
discontinued, and fees are no longer needed; and,
WHEREAS, it is the intent of the City of Arlington to charge appropriate fees and charges
that are consistent with the services provided and to cover the public cost of providing these
various services so that the public is not subsidizing individual benefits derived therefrom; and,
WHEREAS, the City has reviewed the fees in relationship to estimated staff time to
complete various tasks, and believes some fees should be updated; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARLINGTON AS
FOLLOWS:
The following rates, fees, and charges for various services provided, actions performed, or items
sold by the city and/or its contract service providers, and fines levied against code violators, are
hereby adopted:
Section 1. Fees and Charges — General
1.1 Fees. Fees are intended to cover the normal, recurring costs associated with
providing a given service. Fees are non-refundable.
1.2 Prices. In some instances, the City provides certain goods and merchandise for
sale. Prices for these goods may be included in this resolution.
1.3 Payment Due. Fees are due at the time the action is requested (e.g., at time of
application) or occurs (e.g., prior to a specific action). An applicant may pay all fees
of a multi -phased project in advance; however, doing so does not vest applicable
fees due. Fees due are those in effect at the time the specific action or phase of an
action is requested or occurs.
1.4 Waivers. Upon petition by the applicant, the City Council may waive any of the
fees, or portions thereof, for any non-profit organization or government agency.

Section 12: Fees for Duplication and Redaction of Public Records.
12.1 Fees for various services and actions for duplication and redaction of public
records shall be consistent with the provisions of RCW 42.56.120 and listed in Table
12: Fees for Public Records Services.
12.2 The City of Arlington finds that calculating the actual costs of scanning per page
in order to fulfill a public records request would be unduly burdensome for the
following reasons:
(a) The City employs over 120 employees. Because all City employees contribute
to the production of public records requests and all employees earn different
salaries or rate of pay, the public records officer would have to be privy to
salaries of all employees in order to calculate the invoice;
(b) Employees supplying scanned records to the public records officer would be
required to track time spent, thereby creating a burden for those employees
without workstations as well as additional work not assigned in many
employees' job descriptions and or union contracts;
(c) The City's public records officer would be required to maintain a record of all
employees who contribute to each part of a public record request and
potentially charge different amounts for multiple scanned pages;
Page 19
CITY OF ARLINGTON FEE SCHEDULE RESOLUTION NO. 2026-001
(d) The City uses more than seven document scanning machines with different
costs and lease agreement fees which change from time to time. The cost of
supplies for the City's various scanning machines is subject to change based
on current market rates. Calculating the portion of the machines and supplies
used toward scanning public records would require knowledge of the cost of
supplies and an in-depth analysis of timing and application multiplied by each
contributing employee's hourly rate of pay; and
(e) The response time to a public records request may be delayed in order to
calculate scanning costs and create an invoice with different rates of scanning
charges.
