RESOLUTION NO. 2022-046
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA ESTABLISHING A UNIFORM SCHEDULE OF
MISCELLANEOUS FEES FOR FISCAL YEAR 2022-2023
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1: The City Council hereby finds, determines and declares as follows:
A. Each year, for the convenience of the public, the City Council gathers in a
single document a comprehensive listing of fees and service charges
imposed by the City upon those persons seeking services of value from the
City.
B. This document is known as the "Miscellaneous Fee Schedule" for Fiscal Year
2022-2023 and is on file at the Clerk of the Council office, and incorporated
by this reference.
C. As part of approving the Miscellaneous Fee Schedule for Fiscal Year 2022-
2023, the various agencies of the City have analyzed the cost to administer
the various programs, activities and applications for which the City imposes
fees or service charges.
D. On an annual basis, fees and related services associated with the
Miscellaneous Fee Resolution are reviewed and adjusted to reflect the City's
costs in delivering the services. On May 12, 2022, the City Council directed
staff to modify the Consumer Price Index -All Urban Consumers Component
for the Los Angeles -Riverside -Orange County area (CPI) increase from 4.3%
to 3.5% for the Miscellaneous Fees for Fiscal Year 2022-2023. Furthermore,
each city department has confirmed that the actual cost of providing the
service does not exceed the proposed fees for Fiscal Year 2022-2023.
E. In a few limited circumstances, agencies have determined that the fee should
be deleted; new charges should be added or modified; or, existing charges
raised. Such charges are listed in the 'Proposed New Miscellaneous Fees'
and 'Proposal to Modify Existing Fees', attached to the staff report submitted
for this matter and made a part hereof by this reference.
F. In order to have a single comprehensive document for Fiscal Year 2022-
2023, the majority of fees which are unchanged have simply been reprinted in
the Miscellaneous Fee Schedule. The Council expressly states that it is not its
intention to repeal previously adopted fees and adopt new fees of exactly the
same amount, but is simply repeating these fees so that the Miscellaneous
Resolution No. 2022-046

Fee Schedule can continue to be a comprehensive source of City fees and
service charges.
G. In each of these cases, the Council finds, determines and declares that such
new or increased charges, fees or service charges do not exceed the City's
estimated reasonable cost to provide the pertinent service, process the
specified application or administer the certain program for which the charge,
fee or service charge is imposed.
H. Based upon the testimony, reports and other evidence submitted on this
matter, this City Council makes the above -specified findings.
Section 2: The Miscellaneous Fee Schedule for Fiscal Year 2022-2023 is
hereby adopted. Each fee or service charge set forth shall be levied until further
resolution of this Council.
Section 3: To the extent that any fee or service charge established pursuant to
City Resolution No. 2021-027 is inconsistent with the fees or service charges
established pursuant to this Resolution, then said Resolution No. 2021-027 is hereby
repealed.
Section 4: If any charge, fee, service charge, section, subsection, sentence,
clause, phrase or word of this Resolution is for any reason held to be invalid by a court
of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining
portions of this Resolution. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed
and adopted this Resolution, and each and all provisions hereof, irrespective of the fact
that one or more provisions may be declared invalid.
Section 5: This Resolution shall be operative from and after July 1, 2022.
ADOPTED this 7in day of June, 2022.
