For the privilege of occupancy in any hotel, each transient is subject to and shall pay a tax in the amount of twelve percent (12%) of the rent charged by the operator. Such tax constitutes a debt owed by the transient to the City, which debt is extinguished only by payment to the operator or to the City. The transient shall pay the tax to the operator of the hotel at the time the rent is paid. If the rent is paid in installments, a proportionate share of the tax shall be paid with each installment. The unpaid tax shall be due upon the transient's ceasing to occupy space in the hotel. If, for any reason the tax due is not paid to the operator of the hotel, the tax administrator may require that such tax shall be paid directly to the tax administrator." I Section 2. Amendment and Repeal. Notwithstanding California Elections Code Section 9217, without a vote of the people, the Seal Beach City Council may do any of the following: (i) repeal this Ordinance; (ii) reduce the rate of the transient occupancy tax below twelve percent (12%); (iii) increase the rate of the transient occupancy tax to twelve percent (12%) if it previously has been reduced below such rate; or (iv) amend the Uniform Transient Occupancy Tax Ordinance in any other manner that does not increase the rate of the transient occupancy tax in excess of twelve percent (12%).
