All persons, firms, or corporations receiving City services described on Exhibit A that
require the payment of a fee incident to such application or service shall pay the fees as
prescribed in the Fee Schedule amendment attached hereto as Exhibit A and made a part
of hereof. It shall be a violation of this Ordinance to conduct any activity or commence
any use or receive any service for which payment of a fee described herein is required
until such fee has been paid (if required to be paid in advance) or to fail to pay such fee
when properly billed.
SECTION 2.
This Ordinance shall be cumulative of all provisions of ordinances and of the Code of
Ordinances of the City of Schertz, Texas as to the fees set forth on Exhibit A effect on the
effective date of this Ordinance, except where the provisions of this Ordinance are in
direct conflict with the provisions of such ordinances and such Code, in which event the
conflicting provisions of such ordinances and such Code are hereby repealed.
SECTION 3.
The City Council may, from time to time, by ordinance add to the fees set forth on
Exhibit A, and the fees now or hereafter set forth on Exhibit A may be modified from
time to time by resolution of the City Council.
SECTION 4.
It is hereby declared to be the intention of the City Council that the phrases, clauses,
sentences, paragraphs, and sections of this Ordinance are severable, and if any phrase,
clause, sentence, paragraph, or section of this Ordinance shall be declared
unconstitutional by the valid judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction,
such unconstitutionality shall not affect any of the remaining phrases, clauses, sentences,
paragraphs, and sections of this Ordinance, since the same would have been enacted by
the City Council without the incorporation in this Ordinance of any such unconstitutional
phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph, or section.

disobeys, omits, neglects, or refuses to comply with or who resists the enforcement of
any of provisions of this Ordinance shall be fined not more than Five Hundred Dollars
($500.00) for each offense. Each day that a violation is permitted to exist shall constitute
a separate offense. If any other ordinance, including the Code of Ordinances, establishes
a different penalty for the failure to pay any fee on Exhibit A, the provisions of such other
ordinance or the Code of Ordinances shall control with respect to such penalty.
SECTION 6.

provisions of the Code of Ordinances in effect on the effective date of this Ordinance and
modified by this Ordinance or any other ordinances in effect on the effective date of this
