A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA, CORRECTING
CERTAIN SCRIVNER'S ERRORS RELATED TO
BUILDING AND PLAN CHECK FEES AND CLARIFYING
NOTATIONS WITHIN THE SCHEDULE OF RENTS,
FINES, AND FEES
WHEREAS, Section 3.36.010 (Findings) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code
("NBMC") provides that services and programs that primarily benefit a person requesting
the service are traditionally funded in whole, or in part, from fees charged to the person
requesting the service;
WHEREAS, a fee study was conducted by ClearSource Financial Consulting
which completed a comprehensive review and update to the City's user and regulatory
fees;
WHEREAS, following completion of the fee study, the City Council adopted
Resolution No. 2023-30 on June 13, 2023, which adopted a modified Schedule of Rents,
Fines, and Fees ("SRFF") including building and plan check fees;
WHEREAS, in 2024, the City completed departmental fee studies for Finance,
Harbor, Public Works and Utilities Departments as well as revamping the SRFF;
WHEREAS, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2024-29, which removed
substantive information related to certain building and plan check fees;
WHEREAS, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2025-17 on April 29, 2025,
which amended the FY 2025-26 Schedule of Rents, Fines and Fees, which contained
some scrivener's errors that identified certain building and plan check fees as a flat rate
fee when they should have been a variable rate fee and inadvertently omitted certain
descriptive notes; and
WHEREAS, the City Council desires to correct the SRFF as set forth in Exhibit 1.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Newport Beach resolves as
follows
Section 1: The City Council does hereby amend the SRFF, as set forth in
Exhibit 1, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Resolution No. 2026-6
Page 2 of 3
Section 2: That portion of the SRFF adopted pursuant to Resolution No. 2025-
17 containing overlooked notations which are in conflict herewith is hereby repealed and
of no further force or effect.
Section 3: The recitals provided in this resolution are true and correct and are
incorporated into the operative part of this resolution.
Section 4: If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this
resolution is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not
affect the validity or constitutionality of the remaining portions of this resolution. The City
Council hereby declares that it would have passed this resolution, and each section,
subsection, sentence, clause or phrase hereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or
more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared invalid or
unconstitutional.
Section 5: The City Council finds the adoption of this resolution is not subject to
the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the
activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the
environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378)
of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3,
because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or
indirectly.
Resolution No. 2026-6
