Conclusion

Recent Parking Fee History YearParking Rates $6/day $8/weekday flat rate $10/weekend flat rate 2010-present$15/day flat rate $25/holiday flat rate The threshold criteria in the 1993 Executive Director Memo* states: “A substantial increase means any fee increase of 25% or more in any given year or 50% or more on a cumulative basis over any 3 consecutive year period.” The fee schedule adopted by the City on April 27, 2010 required a CDP, as the increase from $10 in 2009 to $15 in 2010 was an 50% increase in a given year. Plus, instituting a new $25 holiday fee (a 150% increase), even if it is only for three days out of the year, would also require a CDP. * Memo Titled: “Coastal Development Permit Required When Imposing or Increasing Fees or Modifying the Hours of Operation of Public Beaches or Public Beach Parking Lots, Piers or Boat Launching Ramps” by the Commission’s Executive Director to Planning Directors of Coastal Cities and Counties (Exhibit #5) in staff report.
