A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD,
CALIFORNIA, AMENDING RESOLUTION NO 2015 -19 AND ADJUSTING THE
FEES FOR FIREWORKS AND RELATED ADMINISTRATIVE FEES
WHEREAS, the Municipal Code of the City of Rosemead provides that certain
filing fees, permit fees, inspection fees, deposits and conditions of service may from time
to time be established by the City Council; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Rosemead has determined that the
cost of providing certain services is not of general benefit but of benefit to the individual
and, therefore, certain filing fees, permit fees, inspection fees and deposits should be
required to pay for materials and special services performed by City staff, and
WHEREAS, after the passage of Propositions 4 and 218, local governments
were made to charge for the costs of services to those who benefited, and
WHEREAS, the City Council has found that since the fees represent a portion of
the actual costs of the service or facilities provided, there is a reasonable relationship
between the amount of the fee charged and the costs of the services provided to the
person paying the fee, and
WHEREAS, the City Council may adjust fees for certain services from time to
time and incorporate all adjusted and /or new fees for services provided into one
comprehensive fee schedule, and
WHEREAS, the City of Rosemead has determined that there is a need to
establish the fees charged for each fireworks stand as well as administrative citation
fines related to fireworks to offset a portion of the additional costs;
