I, CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH • Prior to the collection of these fees through the property tax roll, considerable staff time had been expended on collection efforts related to these fees. • Continuing to assess these fees and charges on the property tax bill is efficient for city staff and reduces the burden on customers by eliminating an additional bill that must be paid. • In addition, the collection rate has improved significantly since 2022, which is when the City began collecting these fees through the tax roll. Therefore, it is recommended that the City continue to collect certain sewer and recycling fees related to Fiscal Year 2025-26 through the tax roll. I, CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH • It is recommended that the City Council conduct a public hearing regarding the collection of certain sewer and recycling fees related to Fiscal Year 2025-26, and approve the recommendations outlined in the agenda report.
