CITY OF PALM DESERT
MEMORANDUM
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Community Affairs Specialist
Date: June 10, 1999
Re: FEE WAIVER
Recommendation:
By Minute Motion,deny the request by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board for a waiver of fees
for use of facilities at the Palm Desert Civic Center on July 28 &29, 1999.
Background:
Periodically, the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Colorado River Basin Region,requests the use
of the Council Chamber at the Palm Desert Civic Center for public hearings that they sponsor in the Coachella
Valley. The City of Palm Desert's policy is to charge outside agencies $30.00 an hour for the use of its facilities
to defray staff and operating expenses.
Due to the great demand for use of facilities at City Hall, it is not possible to accommodate all requests that are
received and attempting to so requires shifting in-house meetings. The amount of the fee waiver that the California
Regional Water Quality Control Board is requesting is$450.00. Therefore, staff recommends that it be denied and
the agency be so notified. 1 tfiv
