CITY 01' NEWPORT BEACH
JAN 2 3 1989
SUBJECT: CITY/COUNTY NEWPORT HARBOR MOORING AGREEMENT
Recommendation:
If desired, authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a
renewed agreement which provides for the County to administer,
regulate and enforce all City and County ordinances dealing with
the ON and OFF SHORE mooring regulations.
Discussion:
Since 1976 the City and the County of Orange have maintained a
Joint Powers Agreement for the purpose of mooring administration
in Newport Bay. The agreement establishes and defines
responsibility of the City and County in conjunction with the ON
and OFF SHORE mooring system over both City and County controlled
tidelands.
The County of Orange has submitted a Mooring Administration
Agreement for the period beginning January 1, 1989 through
December 31, 1993. The agreement proposes that the City of
Newport Beach reimburse the County of Orange for their costs in
the amount of $52,945 for the calendar year 1989. In each of the
four years after 1989 the County anticipates a 6% cost increase
factor to offset their increases in County salaries, etc.
The City staff is recommending that the City Council authorize a
five year agreement as proposed by the County. The County staff
has indicated that they prefer a multi-year agreement rather than
agreements on a year to year basis. The reason for this is that
it reduces their staff costs by eliminating the necessity for
Board of Supervisor approval for each agreement.
There are 1226 ON and OFF SHORE moorings in Newport Bay. All but
23 of these moorings are over City tidelands. The agreement
provides that either party may terminate this agreement by
notifying the other of termination in writing not less than 90
days prior to the date of anticipated termination.
