AMENDING CHAPTER 5.96 OF THE REDLANDS
MUNICIPAL CODE TO ESTABLISH A STREET
SWEEPING FEE
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Redlands
(this "City Council") has determined that residential and
nonresidential property within the City should pay a fee to
defray the cost of street sweeping and non-point source
pollution control services provided to all residential and
nonresidential areas within the City; and
WHEREAS, this City Council has determined, based on
reports from staff, that streets abutting certain
nonresidential uses are swept more often than residential
streets to account for increased garbage and non-point source
pollution generation due to commercial and other
nonresidential uses; and
WHEREAS, this City Council has determined that all
properties within the City receive benefit from having clean
streets within the City through a City-wide street sweeping
and non-point source pollution control program; and
WHEREAS, the revenues generated by this fee do not
exceed the reasonable cost of providing the street sweeping
and non-point source pollution control services funded by
this ordinance; and
WHEREAS, notice of the public hearing on the
adoption of the proposed fee has been provided in accordance
with Government Code Section 66018 ;
