Wilson, City Manager PREPARED BY: Gilbert Garcia, Chief Financial Officer Subject: Adopt Ordinance No. 4148 adding Chapter 10.50 to the Code, both relating to On-Street Parking Meter Zones and Off-Street City Parking Lots Approved for introduction December 17, 2018 - Vote: 7-0 Statement of Issue: As we look ahead to FY 2019-20 and beyond budget development, we expect deficits in the base budget as a result of rising costs, notably those associated with retirement benefits. Consequently, one of the City Council's Strategic Objectives for 2018 is to "conduct a City Council Study Session on budget balancing options, including looking at current revenue sources, potential new revenue options and sale of surplus property." A study session was held on May 7, 2018, in which staff presented the City Council with a wide range of budget balancing options. At that study session, the City Council referred the item to the Finance Commission for follow-up and recommendations. At the regularly scheduled Finance Commission meetings on May 23, 2018, June 27, 2018, July 25, 2018, and November 14, 2018, proposed budget balancing options were reviewed and discussed. At the City Council Study Session on August 6, 2018, the Finance Commission presented its recommendations for both revenue and budget reduction options. Based on the recommendations of the Finance Commission and feedback from the City Council during study sessions and the Council Meeting held November 5, 2018, staff recommends the following actions: (1) Adjust the Citywide Master Fee and Charges Schedule to increase certain fees to 100 percent cost recovery and increase other fees to achieve a higher rate of cost recovery; (2) Adjust parking meters to a single year round rate and remove seasonal changes; and (3) Adjust fines for certain parking citations. Financial Impact: Citywide Master Fee and Charges Schedule: Citywide user fees and charges generate approximately $19.7 million in annual revenue across all funds, with $18.5 million in the General Fund. In the Adopted General Fund Budget of $226.4 million for FY 2018/19, this represents City of Huntington Beach Page 1 of 11 Printed on 1/16/2019 160 powered by LegistarTM l�D ��,Mt E.

While recently campaigning for City Council, it became quite obvious that HB has some of the lowest parking rates around.A quick survey of other beach cities shows that we have room to increase our rates in many different parking areas. I have recently given a schedule to Lori Ann Farrell,Assistant City Manager, that shows where we can increase revenue by over$1.2 million dollars through a new meter and parking pass schedule that benefits the entire city. This is sorely needed to help pay for the Marine Safety Division that we have here in HB. No other beach city offers what we have here in Surf City,we are the closest thing to being Disneyland at the beach, and visitors to our beaches need to pay for the world-class protection they receive while here in Huntington. The schedule I have proposed mirrors the new parking meter rates ($2.00/hr), but goes even further. It has a tiered parking pass schedule and it provides passes for various uses, and it also provides a way for residents to pay for passes through their City Utility Bills. This gets the passes into more citizens' hands thus providing for the increase in revenue. Residents would pay less while "Non-resident/walk up" customers pay a little more because of an additional service fee that is assessed for processing the passes while working with a clerk in person. This schedule would sell more passes...cost HB residents less money...and would drive more revenue to the bottom line. The Parking Meter increase is an important piece of this puzzle and that is why it is important that you pass Agenda Item 34. A copy of my schedule is attached for your perusal. Thank you for your time and have a great meeting. Sincerely Yours, KC Fockler 714-747-3184 ng meters to a single year round rate and remove seasonal changes; and (3) Adjust fines for certain parking citations.
