TITLE
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 44 OF CHAPTER 3 OF TITLE XI AND SETTING
FORTH A FLAT $100 FEE WITH RESPECT TO THE INVESTIGATION AND ISSUANCE OF A
SPECIAL EVENT PERMIT
ISSUE
Should the City Council approve the Ordinance setting a flat $100 fee with respect to the
investigation and issuance of special event permit as opposed to a fee of $25.00 for each day of
the special event?
RECOMMENDATION
Administrative Staff and the Liquor and Beer Licensing Board recommend adoption of the
Ordinance.
BACKGROUND
Pursuant to recent enactment of Senate Bill 97 -149 by the General Assembly of the State of
Colorado, the fee, which may be assessed by a local license body for investigation and
issuance of a special event permit, has been increased to $100.00. It is the position of the
Division of Liquor and Tobacco Enforcement of the State of Colorado that a local licensing body
may no longer collect a per diem fee, i.e. twenty -five dollars ($25.00) per day.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
As most special events do not last longer than three days, it is not anticipated that this change
will have a significant impact on the actual fees collected, and may result in an increase in such
fees.
