HomeMy WebLinkAboutORD NO. 09-1297 (PARKING METER)Honorable Mayor and Members of
the Hermosa Beach City Council
January 5, 2009
City Council Meeting of
January 13, 2009
ADOPTION OF ORDINANCE AMENDING THE HERMOSA BEACH MUNICIPAL
CODE (HBMC) TO INDICATE THAT METER RATES ARE SET BY RESOLUTION
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Ordinance 09-
which amends the HBMC to indicate that meter rates shall be set by resolution and
to remove the actual rate from the code.
BACKGROUND:
It has come to our attention that Section 10.36.010, paragraph A of the HBMC
contains an outdated meter rate and requires the rate to be changed by ordinance
instead of by resolution.
ANALYSIS:
Typically, rates are set by resolution rather than being written into the Municipal
Code to refrain from having to reprint the code every time a rate is changed.
Adoption of the attached ordinance removes the rate from the code and requires
rates to be set by resolution (which is how the rates have been set in the past).
Respectfully submitted,
Viki Cope
Finance Director
