FROM: City Clerk
RE: Parking Violation Fines
The attached Resolution adopts an amended parking violation
fine schedule.
In June of 2001 Resolution Number 4911 was adopted
establishing the fines for parking violations, it has been
discovered that at that time one violation and fine was
inadvertently left out of the Resolution. The proposed
Resolution simply readopts the existing fines as established
by Resolution Number 4911 and adds the violation for parking
in a Passenger Loading Zone as set forth in Municipal Code
Section 13 -100 for the period of time established by Section
13 -98, attached hereto, and establishes the fine for
violation at $35.00.
The proposed Resolution has a sense of urgency in that
school will soon be open and it has been determined that one
area where this violation is occurring regularly is on Bolsa
Avenue in front of McGaugh School where it is designated as
a Passenger Loading Zone to accommodate persons dropping off
and picking up children from school yet recently the Police
Department has encountered an excess number of unoccupied
vehicles parked in this designated area.
Recommended Action:
Adopt the proposed Resolution entitled "A RESOLUTION OF THE
CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH ESTABLISHING FINES
ING TO PARKING VIOLATIONS."
