BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
With the passage of Council Bill 11, on April 20, 2015, effective January 1, 2016 the City of Englewood will
institute a fee (set by resolution) for the in-office processing of paper license applications and/or tax/transaction
fee remittances. This fee extends to Sales and Use Tax license Applications under Title 4 and the miscellaneous
businesses license applications required under Title 5. This fee also encompasses in-office processed paper
remittances and taxes due under Title 4 Chapter 4 (Sales, Use and Lodgers Tax), Chapter 5 (Basic Local Exchange
Services Business and Occupation Tax) and Chapter 7 (Waste Transfer Surcharge) and transaction fee forms
required to be filed under Title 5 Chapter 15 (Pawnbrokers Transaction Fee), Chapter 16 (Automobile
Pawnbrokers) and Chapter 23 (Purchaser of Valuable Articles).
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Adding the paper filing fee will result in the collection of fees to offset the cost of processing, storing and
shredding documents as required by the State Archivists Office. The intent of the fee is not to enhance revenues
but to encourage the use of the City's online filing and payment resources.
