Fees.

(1) Authorization to charge fees: The authority, pursuant to RCW 70.37.090, shall require applicants to pay fees and charges to the authority to provide it with funds for investigations, financial feasibility studies, expenses of issuance and sale of bonds, and other charges for services provided by the authority in connection with projects undertaken, as well as the operating and administrative expenses of the authority. In accordance with this authorization, an applicant shall pay to the authority such fees and charges as are necessary to meet any and all expenses incurred by the authority in connection with the processing of the application of the applicant, together with an annual service fee to defray expenses of the authority in administering and servicing the financing provided to the applicant and other allocable expenses of the authority. The authority shall assess an annual fee of one-tenth of one percent of the outstanding and unredeemed bonds of each applicant. The initial annual fee shall be paid to the authority on the date of closing of each tax exempt note or bond issue and in every anniversary date thereafter: Provided, however, That the authority by an adopted motion may set a different fee schedule and may waive all or any part of the annual or application fee.
(2) Fee obligations of the applicants: An applicant shall submit with its application an initial remittance of $7,500.00, to be credited against the fees and charges imposed or to be imposed by the authority on such applicant pursuant to this section in connection with the processing of an application. The applicant shall pay such fees and charges as they are billed to it from time to time by the authority. These expenses may be reimbursed to the applicants from the bond proceeds if financing is consummated. In addition, the application shall contain an appropriate legal commitment to indemnify the authority against any expenses or costs incurred by it in connection with the processing of the applicant's application and the completion of any project or plan and system subsequently approved and undertaken by the authority, as well as to pay the authority an annual service fee to defray expenses of the authority in administering and servicing the financing provided to the applicant and other allocable expenses of the authority, which annual fee shall be imposed so long as financing is being provided by the authority to the applicant.
(3) Refund of excess fees: The authority will refund any surplus fees paid or deposited by an applicant or participant which exceed the actual application-processing expenses and authority-determined pro rata administrative and operating costs of the authority.
(4) All the costs and expenses of the authority shall be paid from fees assessed pursuant to this section. No moneys of the state of Washington shall be expended for such purposes.
