Review of Fees and Charges 2016/17 - Licensing Fees PDF 57 KB Additional documents:
Minutes: The report of the Director of Central Services and Monitoring Officer gave details of proposed licensing fees and charges for 2016/17. The report focused on the fees to be charged for hackney carriage and private hire licensing, together with other miscellaneous licences/registrations dealt with by Licensing Services. The fee model sheets for the main taxi fee increases were set out at Annex 2 to the report and showed the officer cost and time in validating, processing and issuing licences and enforcement costs where applicable.
In considering the proposed fees at Annex 1 to the report, Members suggested in respect of the miscellaneous licences that those above £50 should be rounded up to the nearest £5.
RESOLVED: That the proposed scale of fees for licences, consents and registrations contained in Annex 1 to the report be adopted with effect from 1 April 2016 subject to the Hackney Carriage new vehicle licence being amended to £225 and the miscellaneous licences above £50 being rounded up to the nearest £5, as set out in the revised table annexed to these Minutes.
