Death Cheaper Than Marriage: Rye’s 2013 Fees

It's that time of year, and Rye City's 2013 final fee schedule is available for your perusal.

(PHOTO: Cheap)

Death (transcript $10) is a lot cheaper than marriage (license $40) and you can pay for all sorts of things – explosive inspection, cabaret (license, to our knowledge the city will not put on a show…), fingerprinting fees and a picnic for 150.

(PHOTO: Expensive)
