City of Huntington Beach Page 1 of 3 Printed on 4/11/2019 289 File #: 19-411 MEETING DATE: 4/15/2019 Analysis: On January 22, 2019, the City Council adopted Emergency Ordinance No. 4177, effective through May 23, 2019, to regulate Sidewalk Vending. Ordinance No. 4179 proposes to readopt permanently into the Municipal Code the Temporary Regulations previously enacted, and is scheduled to be considered for adoption on April 1, 2019. Pursuant to the Sidewalk Vending Ordinance, staff recommends the establishment of a Sidewalk Vending Permit Fee to recover the costs associated with permitting sidewalk vending businesses. The recommended Sidewalk Vending Permit Fee covers the costs of reviewing, processing and issuing documents related to the Sidewalk Vending Permit. This process includes, but is not limited to, the following steps: • Verifying that the vendor has obtained a business license and has provided proof of a valid seller's permit with a listed address of Huntington Beach or Sunset Beach • Reviewing documents related to proof of liability insurance that meets the City's minimum requirements • Reviewing documents to ensure that food vendors have obtained all applicable State and County permits • Completing a background check for each person who will be conducting sidewalk vending activities • Issuing applicable permit documents Based on a formal fee study that was completed in conformance with Proposition 26, staff estimates that the cost to issue a typical permit is $268. This cost includes staff time from Finance, Police and Human Resources/Risk Management. The table below provides a breakdown of the costs: Department/Division Fully Burdened Hours Cost Hourly Rate Finance $131 1.40 $183 Police, Non-Sworn $103 0.50 52 Risk Management $131 0.25 33 Total $268 Below is a comparison of sidewalk vending fees in comparable cities: City Fee City of Newport Beach $155 City of Manhattan Beach $195 City of Santa Ana $225 City of Garden Grove $150-$175 City of Beverly Hills $322 Staff recommends that City Council approve the establishment of a Sidewalk Vending Permit Fee, in the amount of $268, which represents 100% cost recovery to process and issue the permit.
