Staff Summary
·      The proposed amendments relocate the administrative adjudication fines and fees into the Administrative Adjudication Ordinance, and allow the use of a range of fines in lieu of a set fine per violation.  
·      These amendments will assist in making the ordinance more consistent with state law and administrative adjudication best practices, establishing fairness in fines and incentivizing compliance.  A corresponding repeal of the currently separate fee/fine schedule is proposed.
·      Other amendments are proposed to correct minor clerical procedural issues.
