Resolutions

Standing resolutions

Most resolutions approve one thing once. These set a continuing rule — a fee or charge, a rate, a pay plan, the depositories and investment policy, a council rule — that lasts until a later resolution (or an ordinance) replaces it. Each shows what it sets as printed, when it took effect and whether a later one replaced it.

Unofficial register compiled from the resolutions and minutes in this archive. A resolution the archive does not hold may have changed a figure since; "current" means the latest one on the subject in the archive. The City of Tiffin's records govern.

City Code sections that leave an amount to a resolution not found here

These sections say a fee, charge or compensation is set "by resolution of the Council", but no resolution on that subject has been identified in the archive (it may predate the archive's resolutions, or be among the ones without a readable title).

  • § 18.02: “Compensation and hours will be set by resolution of the Council”
  • § 20.01: “The City Attorney shall receive such compensation as established by resolution of the Council”
  • § 23.06: “Fees for filing an appeal will be set by resolution of the Council”
  • § 48.05: “The fee for a sound equipment permit shall be as established by resolution of the Council”
  • § 49.10: “Fees for permits shall be set by resolution of the Council”
  • § 75.04: “Snowmobiles shall be operated only upon streets which have not been plowed during the snow season and on such other streets as may be designated by resolution of the Council”
  • § 95.06: “that it may be served by the City sewer system may apply to the Council for permission to connect to the public sewer upon the terms and conditions stipulated by resolution of the Council”
  • § 125.04: “It is unlawful for a person to operate a sexually oriented business without a valid permit issued by the City’s designated Director, as provided by resolution of the Council”
  • § 125.06: “This fee is to be used to pay for the cost of the administration and enforcement of this chapter and may be revised by resolution of the Council”
  • § 156.11: “The Department of Housing and Inspection Services is authorized to assess permit and reinspection fees, the amounts of which shall be established by resolution of the City Council”
  • § 156.13: “The Appeals Board, upon receipt of an appeal request and payment of the filing fee, as established by resolution of the City Council, shall set a time and a place for the hearing”
  • § 156.16: “or, the Department of Housing and Inspection Services shall issue a certificate of structure compliance upon payment of a fee, the amount of which shall be set by resolution of the City Council”
  • § 38.05: “A service charge shall be made in accordance with the schedule as approved by Resolution of the City Council”

How it is built: every resolution's own heading (read from its signed copy; the minutes' title where there is no copy) is matched to a subject; a resolution that reads as setting a fee or policy but matches no subject waits for a person. On a subject, each resolution is taken to replace the one before it ("inferred") unless the later one names the one it repeals or amends. Amounts are read from the resolving clauses and attached schedules, never from the "whereas" clauses (those state the old figures). JSON · built 2026-10-17
