Analy _
Consider Establishment of a Fee For the Sale
of Business Registration Permit List
Staff has developed and completed a list of City businesses
based on information received through the Business
Registration program. The City has received several
requests for a list of businesses, therefore, staff has
researched the cost for the development and maintenance of
the list, so that the City can recover this cost when
providing the document to the public.
Discussion
With the help of the Summer Youth Employment participants,
the City business registration list has recently been
completed. The list currently contains information about 530
business which have secured permits since the initiation of
the program; June 9, 1989. The City uses the list for
informational and statistical purposes and assistance with
City and County permit compliance efforts.
The cost of the list is based on an assessment of the
following variables; the labor involved in creating the data
base, the cost of media format for providing the list to the
public, and on the projected number of copies to be sold
over the next three years. The list required 60 hours of
data entry by the Summer Youth Employees, (charged at
$5.00 /hr.) , and approximately 20 hours of staff supervision,

(charged at $65.00 /hr) , and will require 5 - 6 hours of
staff time per year for revisions and modification. These
costs were divided by an estimated 150 copies projected to
be sold over the next three years. The cost of providing
one hard copy of the business list is approximately $15.00,
and the cost for providing a list to the public on diskette
is approximately $25.00.
The information contained in the list will include: business
name, business address, mailing address, business owner's
name, business telephone number and business type.
It is presumed by staff that if the City attempts to format
each diskette according to the specific needs of each
requesting party, that providing this type of service will
be cumbersome for City staff, and more costly to general
public in the long run. Staff also recommends that the
diskettes provided to the public be made available on one
type of software; Lotus 123.
Recommendation
That the City Council establish a fee for the list of City
registered businesses to include the business name, business
owner's name, business address, mailing address, business
telephone number and business type for a cost of;
1) $15.00 on hard copy;
2) $25.00 for a diskette to be formatted on Lotus 123
software;
3 ) That the fees in "1) " and 112) " above be incorporated
in the miscelaneous fees resolution;
4) That public requests which differ from the above
recommended standard format for the business list,
be charged at a per hour rate.
