A RESOLUTION OF THE SEAL BEACH CITY COUNCIL
UPDATING AND ESTABLISHING USER AND REGULATORY
FEES, CHARGES, RATES, AND FINES
WHEREAS, User and regulatory fees, charges, rates, and fines are established by the
City Council; and,
WHEREAS, the City recently completed a study to identify the cost of providing various
user and regulatory fee-related services; and,
WHEREAS, the study examined fee-related services provided by the City, the costs
reasonably borne by the City in providing those services, the beneficiaries of those
services, and the revenues produced by those paying fees and charges for special
services; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that providing these services is of special benefit to
applicants both separate and apart from the general benefit to the public; and therefore,
in the interests of fairness to the general public, the City desires to better recover the
costs of providing these services from applicants who have sought or require the City's
services by revising its schedule of fees; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds that the study provides adequate evidence to
conclude that the revised fees do not exceed the cost to provide the services for which
the fees are charged; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council desires that annually the City Manager may update the
fees, charges, rates, and fines based on the annual percentage change in the all-urban
Consumer Price Index for Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA (CPI). If the CPI
does not change or goes down in a given year, no change shall be made to the fee
schedule that year.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE SEAL BEACH CITY COUNCIL DOES HEREBY RESOLVE:
Section 1. In adopting this Resolution, the City Council is taking action only on those
amounts for the services, programs or products set forth in Exhibit "A"
which have been modified from prior resolutions of the City Council. The
remaining fees, charges, fines, or other amounts that have not been
modified from prior resolutions shall remain in full force and effect. This
resolution is not intended, and shall not be construed, as the imposition,
extension, or increase of any such tax, fee, or charge, except as provided
herein.
1
Section 2. The adoption of this Resolution determines fees for the purpose of
meeting the operating expenses of City departments and will result in no
physical change to the environment and is therefore exempt from the _
California Environmental Quality Act.
Section 3. Fees adopted by this Resolution shall be effective December 1, 2022.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the Seal Beach City Council at a regular
