WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 17.22.050 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, the City Council of the City of Newport Beach may prescribe by resolution fees for mooring permits issued pursuant to Chapter 17.22; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Newport Beach has considered the fees recommended by the Harbors and Beaches Committee and finds them to be fair, equitable and reasonably consistent with charges for mooring permits of a similar nature in other locations. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Newport, as follows: 1. The following schedule of fees for mooring permits is established: a. Offshore moorings bayward of the Pierhead Line: $20.00 per vessel foot per year for the length of vessel authorized; and b. Onshore moorings landward of the Pierhead Line: $10.00 per vessel foot. 2. The fees imposed by this Resolution shall be payable annually, in advance, or on such different period as may be established by the Finance Director, and shall take effect January 1, 1996. 3. Fees shall be due and payable on the 1st day of February, 1996, and the 1st day of February each and every year thereafter. The fees shall become delinquent on the 1st day of March. Upon failure of the permittee to pay the prescribed fee when due and prior to delinquency, the Finance Director shall add a late penalty of twenty -five percent (250) of said fee on the 1st day of each month after the due date thereof; provided, however, that the amount of such late payment penalty to be added to the primary fee shall, in no event, exceed one hundred percent (10016) of the amount of the fee due. It is found that the late payment penalty is necessary to offset the additional administrative costs of the City of Newport Beach in collecting delinquent permit fees. 4. The fees set by this Resolution are equivalent to the • fair market value for the use of the tidelands herein involved, and the City Council specifically finds that the fees represent the fair market value for the use of said tidelands. 5. Resolution No. 94 -53 is hereby rescinded effective July 1, 1995. 6. The City Council reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to increase or decrease the annual fee at any time during any calendar year, and any modification to the mooring shall be collected pro rata and in the manner specified by the City Council. ADOPTED, this 26th day of June, 1995. ATTEST: / /i,/2 J'' /well / W� • -'l 'U Wz
