HD • ..,u.Jf--- CITV AnY ............ ,._.. CITY MGR.~ Adopt Ordinance No. -31 I.{ q amending Carlsbad Municipal Code, Chapter 10.40 to establish parking violation enforcement procedures and fees. Item Explanation: The State of California has recently passed AB189 authorizing m:mies to be collected for use in construction and enhancing of cr:iminal justice facilities. AB189 provides that a surcharge of $1.50 be added to fines and forfeitures coming from parking violations and other selected crilninal offenses. This surcharge is to be collected by each county for use in that county. San DJ.ego County has enacted legislation authorizing the surcharge and its collection. This ordinance rurendment is to allow for the collection of the surcharge from the violato1 as intended by the original enabling legislation. If this ordi- nance is not accepted, the City of Carlsbad must give up $1.50 of its portion of the fines and forfeitures for all parking citations processed to the county in order to canply with AB189. Since the City's municipal ordinance is the actual authority for the levying of the fines and forfeitures, it must be amended to allow for the surcharge. Fiscal Impact: If not adopted, the fiscal jmpact for the fiscal year 1981-82 is estimated at approximately $1115.00; however, the annual estimated impact v.ould be a loss of $4500.00. Exhibits: 1.
