Council Agenda
Item No. 5
To: Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Timothy Riley, Fire and Marine Chief 14
Subject: Revised Parking Lot Fees for Balboa Pier and Corona Del Mar Parking
Lots
RECOMMENDATION
If desired, rescind Resolution No. 92 -105 and adopt Resolution No. 2000- ,
amending the City Fee Schedule for parking lot fees at the Balboa Pier and Corona Del
Mar Parking Lots.
BACKGROUND
In April 1999, the Fire and Marine Department prepared a recommendation and
resolution to adjust the fees at both the Balboa Pier and Corona Del Mar Parking Lots.
This item was continued by the City Council pending the result of the Balboa Peninsula
Parking Management Plan. That plan was completed and submitted to the City Council
in a study session on September 13, 1999. At that time, the City Council requested that
the Promote Revitalization of Our Peninsula Committee (PROP) review the options,
recommend which options should be implemented, and which options should have
priority.
PROP discussed the management report and reviewed staff recommendations for
implementation. Those options and directions to staff were the subject of a staff report
that came to the City Council on February 8, 2000. At that time, the City Council
approved Option 9, implement a bus layover area, and Option 16, develop a pier lot
validation program. Neither one of those options will be impacted by a revision of the
parking lot fees.
A recent survey of the majority of the municipal parking facilities in our areas,
specifically Huntington Beach City, Huntington Beach State, Crystal Cove and John
Wayne Airport, indicates all have a single year -round rate, which is essentially the same
as our summer fee. Leaving the summer fee the same year -round will do a number of
things. It will eliminate public confusion as to what the fees are from summer to winter.
It will update our fees, which have not been changed since 1992. It will bring us into
conformity with the majority of the other municipal and private parking facilities in our
area. It will have a projected revenue increase of between $40,000 and $50,000 a year.
