RESOLUTION NO. 9950 (CCS)
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA MONICA SETTING TAXICAB DECAL FEE
WHEREAS, it is the policy of the City of Santa Monica to charge for the
full costs of services provided by City staff when such services benefit individual users
rather than members of the community as a whole; and
WHEREAS, Ordinance No. 1754 (CCS) (the Ordinance), adopted July 12,
1994, governs the setting of the amount of user fees or fees for services provided to or
for the benefit of particular individuals rather than the general public, and
WHEREAS, the Ordinance allows such user fees or fees for services to be
set by ordinance, by a resolution adopted by the City Council, or by any other
means authorized by law; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to recover the cost of creating, inspecting,
and affixing a vehicle decal every time the City issues a new or replaces an old
decal (replacement for lost, stolen or otherwise removed decals),
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA
DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Every time a decal is applied for the applicant shall pay a
non-refundable decal fee of Seventy two Dollars ($72.00 Dollars).
SECTION 2. The fee described in Section 1 will take effect October 1,
2004.
SECTION 3. Commencing upon October 1, 2004 and on October 1 of
each fiscal year thereafter, all fees established by this resolution shall be
administratively revised annually by a factor equal to the difference in the Los Angeles-
Orange-Riverside Consumer Price Index for Wage Earners and Clerical Workers for the
twelve month period February through February of the prior fiscal year. The fee will be
examined as part of comprehensive City-Wide fee studies in the future to determine if
the fee is adequately recovering City costs for these services.
SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution,
and thenceforth and thereafter the same shall be in full force and effect.
