The Story

On Dec. 15, 2025, the City Council created a new annual license for devices used to charge by weight or measure, and voted 9-0 to make businesses cover the City’s inspection costs. The practical question for affected businesses is how the City will calculate and itemize those “actual costs” year to year.
