A RESOLUTION OF THE SEAL BEACH CITY COUNCIL ADOPTING
A CREDIT CARD TRANSACTION PROCESSING FEE
RECITALS
I. The Seal Beach City Council is empowered to impose reasonable charges for
municipal services.
2. Periodically, the City Council determines that charges should cover the costs
reasonably borne or a substantial portion of the actual costs of the goods and
services provided by the City.
3. When the City accepts payment of fees via credit card, a transaction processing
fee applies. The City does not have a fee currently established to recover this
cost.
4. The City desires to establish a fee to recover the reasonable costs incurred by the
City associated with credit card payment transaction processing.
5. The fee does not exceed the City's reasonable costs associated with accepting
credit card payments.
6. The fee will be incorporated into the City's Cost Recovery Schedule so that it can
be periodically examined and adjusted, as necessary.
7. The adoption of this Resolution determines costs for the purpose of meeting the
operating expenses of City departments and is therefore exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE SEAL BEACH CITY COUNCIL ESTABLISHES THE FEE
IDENTIFIED IN EXHIBIT A OF THIS RESOLUTION.
The fee included in this Resolution shall be effective upon adoption of the Resolution.
