Editor's note— Ord. No. NS-300.733, § 1, adopted September 28, 2004, amended the Code by adding provisions designated as a new Ch. XV, §§ A14-89—A14-91, to read as herein set out. See also the Code Comparative Table.

The purpose of this chapter is to establish requirements that must be met before the county or any of its departments, agencies, officials or employees may agree to adopt or otherwise administer mitigation fees on behalf of another public entity.

(Ord. No. NS-300.733, § 1, 9-28-04)

Before the county or any of its departments, agencies, officials or employees may adopt mitigation fees on behalf of another public entity or provide related administrative services, there must be a written agreement between the county and the public entity that describes the rights and duties of the respective parties. The agreement must comply with all provisions of this chapter. The County Executive is authorized to execute such agreements on behalf of the County after the agreement has been reviewed and approved as to form and legality by the office of the county counsel.

(Ord. No. NS-300.733, § 1, 9-28-04)

Any public entity for whom the county agrees to collect mitigation fees must agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the county and its officers, agents and employees from any claim, action or proceeding that arises from or is in any way related to the mitigation fees.
