The city may grant a license and permission to occupy public property and shall be evidenced by a license agreement executed by the city and the licensee.
Nathan Fiengold, New Braunfels Remodeling, LLC, made an application with the city engineer for encroachments in the public right-of-way at 748 West San Antonio Street. The encroachments include Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramps and concrete steps to service a building.
Section 114-7(e) specifies that the licensee shall pay an annual fee of ten percent of the value of the area to be licensed for surface licensing and that the minimum annual fee for such licenses shall be $100. Based on the value and size of the area for access to the building, the proposed annual fee for the agreement is $210.
