(City Council Series)
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA
AMENDING SANTA MONICA MUNICIPAL CODE ARTICLES IV AND VI RELATING
TO REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS ON BUSINESS ACTIVITIES, BUSINESS
PERMITTING REQUIREMENTS, LICENSE TAX UPON RETAILERS AND BUSINESS
USE TAX.
WHEREAS, the City consists of just eight square miles of coastal land which is
home to 90,000 residents, the job site of 300,000 workers, and a destination for as
many as 500,000 visitors on weekends and holidays, and
and
WHEREAS, there is a constant and heavy demand on police services in the City;
WHEREAS, the administration of police permits is a diversion of police resources
and a financial burden on businesses; and
WHEREAS, experience has shown that in some cases requiring police permits
for certain types of businesses does not actually enhance law enforcement objectives;
and
WHEREAS, some existing local regulations related to health clubs, vending
machines, auctions, liquidation sales, bingo games, and dance halls are outdated and
no longer provide any appreciable public benefit; and
WHEREAS, requiring participants in City approved community events to obtain
business licenses solely because of their participation in the events unduly burdens
events participants, unnecessarily discourages participation in community events, and
does not appreciably enhance City revenue; and
WHEREAS, certain local regulations related to vendors, taxis and valet services
duplicate other regulatory permits that are already required by law; and
WHEREAS, Pursuant to the Bradley -Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax
Law (Revenue and Taxation Code Section 7200 et. seq.), the State of California has
preempted the field of sales and use taxation and is solely responsible for the collection
of local sales and use taxes otherwise authorized by state law; and
WHEREAS, Consistent with the Bradley -Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax
Law, the City Council enacted Ordinance No. 396 CCS on February 28, 1956, which
suspended Santa Monica Municipal Code Chapters 6.52 and 6.56; and
WHEREAS, repeal of these suspended chapters of the Municipal Code is
appropriate.
