best interest of the City to adjust fees for services as more fully set forth in this Ordinance.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS THAT:
Section 1. All persons, firms, or corporations applying for licenses or permits
or receiving other City services described in Public Works —Streets and Garbage
Collection Fees 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
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ordinances and such Code are hereby repealed.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.
Section 5. Subject to the last sentence of this Section, any person, firm, or
corporation who violates, 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. All rights and remedies of the City are expressly saved as to any and
all violations of the 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 Ordinance and modified by this
Ordinance and requiring the payment of fees for licenses, permits, and other
services provided by the City which have accrued on the effective date of this
Ordinance; and any and all accrued violations and all pending litigation, both
civil and criminal, whether pending in court or not, under such ordinances, shall
not be affected by this Ordinance but may be prosecuted until final disposition
by the courts.
Section 7. This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after its final
passage and any publication required by law.
PASSED AND APPROVED on the day of J 2025.
