Discussion On June 1, 1993, the city Council enacted Ordinance Number 1683 (CCS) which established the City's Parking Facility Tax. That ordlnance sets forth the dates on which required reports and tax payments are to be made to the city. Many of the operators who have parking facilities in Santa Monica also operate parklng facilities in Los Angeles which also has a parking facility tax. In response to requests from the operators of parking facilities, the Finance Department has changed the dates upon which parklng facility reports and taxes are due to coordinate the City's reporting periods with the reporting periods of the city of Los Angeles. 1 8!~ ii h_ t; ($ - ~ FEe f" 1995 This Ordinance was requested by the Finance Department and is being submitted to the city council for first reading. It modii ies Municipal Code Section 6.70.040 to reflect the current reporting and tax due dates. Its adoption would conform the Code to current practice and thereby effectively permit the Finance Department to assess penalties against any operator who files his or her reports and taxes under the old schedule (as currently set forth in the Municipal Code), which under the new schedule would be considered late. Recommendation It is respectfully recommended that the accompanying ordinance be introduced for first reading. PREPARED BY: Marsha Jones Moutrie, city Attorney Claudia Thompson, Legal Admin.
