RESOLUTION NO. 2004-082 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AMENDING THE MISCELLANEOUS FEE SCHEDULE TO UPDATE THE POLICE DEPARTMENT MISCELLANEOUS SERVICES FEES BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS: Section 1: The City Council hereby, finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Each year, for the convenience of the public the City Council gathers in a single document a comprehensive listing of fees and service charges imposed by the City upon that limited number of persons seeking services of value from the City. This document is known as the "Miscellaneous Fee Schedule." B. As part of its continuous improvement process, it is appropriate to update the Miscellaneous Fee Schedule for Fiscal Year 2004-2005 from time to time. . C. In addition, as the City is updating the Miscellaneous Fee Schedule at this time it is also appropriate to update the document to incorporate the Police Department fees for this fiscal year to include within it the fees that were reviewed by the Council at its study session on the budget and Miscellaneous Fee Schedule and not included as a result of a technical error. D. For these Police Department fees, the Council finds that the cost of providing the services therein set forth has risen by 3% and that this reflects the cost of administering certain programs, activities or applications for which the City levies charges, fees or service charges. Such 3% increase does not exceed the City's estimated reasonable cost to provide the pertinent service, process the specified application or administer the certain program for which the charge, fee or service charge is imposed. E. Similarly, in a few limited circumstances, new charges have been added or existing charges raised beyond this 3% cost of providing services. In each of these cases, the Council further finds, determines and declares that such new or increased charges, fees or service charges do not exceed the City's estimated reasonable cost to provide the pertinent service, process the specified application or administer the certain program for which the charge, fee or service charge is imposed. . F. In order to have a single comprehensive document for Fiscal Year 2004- 2005, the majority of fees which are unchanged have simply been reprinted in the Miscellaneous Fee Schedule. The Council expressly states that it is not its intention to Resolution No. 2004-082 Page 1 of 3 repeal previously adopted fees and adopt new fees of exactly the same amount, but is simply repeating these fees so that the Miscellaneous Fee Schedule can continue to be a comprehensive source of City fees and service charges. Section 2: The Miscellaneous Fee Schedule for Fiscal Year 2004-2005 is hereby updated to include Police Department fees attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference. Each fee or service charge set forth shall be levied until further resolution of this Council. Section 3: To the extent that any fee or service charge established pursuant to City Resolution No. 2004-033 is inconsistent with the fees or service charges established pursuant to this Resolution, then said Resolution No. 2004-033 is hereby repealed. Section 4: If any charge, fee, service charge, section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or word of this Resolution is for any reason held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Resolution. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed and adopted this Resolution, and each and all provisions hereof, irrespective of the fact that one or more provisions may be declared invalid. Section 5: That except as may be stated otherwise above, this Resolution shall be operative from and after July 1, 2004. The Council ratifies and approves all collections of Police Department fees made since July 1, 2004 under the attached schedule. ADOPTED this 18th day of October, 2004. APPROVED AS TO FORM: Joseph W.
