OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH, CALIFORNIA, ESTABLISHING
RESIDENTIAL PARKING PERMIT FEES." By unanimous consent, full reading
of Resolution Number 3163 was waived. The City Manager presented the
staff report and the recommendation submitted by the Chief of Police
relating to proposed increased fee for residential parking stickers.
Mr. Parker noted that the program was initiated six years ago and that
the $1.50 sticker cost has remained unchanged since that time and
reviewed the fees charged by other cities with similar programs. Mr.
Parker explained that the cost of the parking sticker can be no greater
than can be justified by the cost of the program, reviewed his memo-
randum setting forth the cost to the City to administer the parking
program and recommended that the sticker fee be set at $5.50, consti-
tuting one third of the revenues necessary to offset the costs, the
remaining two thirds anticipated to be generated by establisning a
parking sticker program for temporary residents and guests, to be
presented to Council for consideration at a later date. Councilmember
Grgas expressed his support for implementing the guest and temporary
parking sticker program to reduce the burden on the downtown area
residents and to offset the costs currently borne by the City and
also suggested consideration be given to the number of stickers that
may be issued per residence. The Chief of Police suggested that the
cost for additional categories of stickers be the same as that for
residents, whereby the cost to administer and enforce the program
would not be significantly increased. The Council concurred that
simplicity of the program would be most efficient and cost effective.
It was clarified that temporary stickers would be purchased by the
property owner for use by their tenants. Risner moved, second by
Laszlo, to adopt Resolution Number 3163, inserting $5.50 as the cost

The City Manager reported the status of negotiations with Newman
Brettin Properties for the sale of the Old City Hall, that the
structural analysis and appraisal reports are presently being reviewed
by Newman Brettin and that the building is being processed for
historical registration. Mr. Parker also reported that the Exclusive
Negotiating Agreement with Newman Brettin had expired and requested
Council authorization to extend that agreement for a period of six
I
months. Mr. Parker stated that the proposed resolution declares the
City'S intention to issue revenue bonds that would make available tax
exempt financing for both the purchase and rehabilitation of the Old
City Hall as allowed under California law and verified that there
would be no liability on the part of the City by issuing the revenue
bonds but would provide a means for the developer to obtain financing
at a lower cost.
