A structure may be erected, increased in height, or tree growth may be permitted or property may be otherwise used in violation of airport zoning regulations adopted under this ordinance if a variance from the airport zoning regulations is obtained from the Planning Commission. Such variances shall be allowed where a literal application or enforcement of the regulations would result in practical difficulty or unnec- essary hardship and the relief granted would not be contrary to the public interest but do substantial justice and be in accordance with a spirit of the regulations and this article; provided, that any variance may be allowed subject to any reasonable conditions that the Planning Commission may deem necessary to effectuate the purposes of this article and reasonable in the circumstances and it may condition such permit or variance so as to require the owner of the structure or tree in question to permit the County of River- side, at its own expense, to install, operate, and maintain thereon such markers and lights as may be necessary to indicate to aerial navigators the presence of an airport hazard. d. PROCEDURE TO MAKE APPLICATION FOR PERMIT. Permits may be secured upon application to the Planning Director of Riverside County, Courthouse, Riverside, California. All permits must be granted or denied not more than ten days after the application for such has been filed in the office of said Planning Director and notice thereof mailed to the applicant within 3 days after the decision has been reached. Within 10 days after such mailing, the applicant may appeal the decision of the Planning Director by filing a request for hearing before the Planning Commission in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedure for acquiring a variance as herein provided. 448-5 e. PROCEDURE TO MAKE APPLICATION FOR VARIANCE. 1 . Any property owner, including owners of easements, may file a request for such a variance with the Planning Director describing the structure, tree or use desired to be made of the property and giving its exact location, dimensions, and such other relevant information as the Planning Director may require. A $10.00 filing fee shall accompany such request and shall be deposited in the county gen- eral fund. 2 . The Planning Director shall give notice of a public hearing before the Planning Commission on such request by publication of a notice in a newspaper of general circulation published in the County of Riverside not less than 7 days prior to the date of such public hearing. Such notice shall contain information concerning the hearing date, time and place, a general description of the use, structure or tree involved, the manner in which it will infringe on existing regulations, and its approximate location. Further, the applicant shall be advised of the hearing date by letter directed to the address supplied with his request for a variance , the same to be mailed not less than ten days prior to the date of hearing. 3 .

If any section, subsection, paragraph or item of this ordinance or any portion thereof be declared unconstitutional, it shall not affect the remain- der of such ordinance, and the Board of Supervisors hereby declare that it would have enacted the remainder of such ordinance irrespective of the portion declared unconstitutional. If the application of this ordinance or any item or portion there- of to any specific case or below any given height be declared unconstitutional, then said ordinance shall be applicable to all such cases and above such heights as to which it may be constitutional. Nothing in this ordinance shall be construed as depriving any person who shall suffer damages by reason of injury to himself or to his property by reason of the use of the air space adjacent to or over his property by aircraft of bringing an appropriate notice for such damages .

TITLE. This ordinance shall be known as the Uniform Transient Occupancy Tax Ordinance of the County of Riverside. Section 2 . DEFINITIONS. Except where the context otherwise requires, the definitions given in this section govern the construction of this ordinance: a. PERSON. "Person" means any individual, firm, partner- ship, joint venture, association, social club, fraternal organization, joint stock company, corporation, estate, trust, business trust, receiver, trustee, syndicate, or any other group or combination acting as a unit. b. HOTEL. "Hotel" means any structure, or any portion of any structure, which is occupied or intended or designed for occupancy by transients for dwelling, lodging or sleeping purposes, and includes any hotel, inn, tourist home or house, motel, studio hotel, bachelor hotel, lodging house, rooming house, apartment house, dormi- tory, public or private club, mobilehome or house trailer at a fixed location, or other similar structure or portion thereof. "Hotel" does not mean any of the following: Any hos- pital, sanitarium, medical clinic, convalescent home, rest home, home for aged people, foster home, or other similar facility operated for the care or treatment of human beings; any asylum, jail, prison, orphanage or other facility in which human beings are detained and housed under legal restraint; any housing owned or controlled by an educa- tional institution and used exclusively to house students, faculty or other employees, and any fraternity or sorority house or similar facility occupied exclusively by students and employees of such educational institution, and offi- cially recognized or approved by it; any housing operated or used exclusively for religious, charitable or educational purposes by an organization having qualifications for ex- emption from property taxes under the laws of California; any housing owned by a governmental agency and used to house its employees or for governmental purposes; any camp as defined in the Labor Code or other housing furnished by an employer exclusively for employees; any private dwelling house or other individually-owned single-family dwelling unit rented only occasionally and incidentally to the normal 495-2 occupancy by the owner or his family; provided that the burden of establishing that the housing or facility is not a hotel as defined herein shall be upon the operator thereof, who shall file with the Tax Collector such infor- mation as the Tax Collector may require to establish and maintain such status. c. OCCUPANCY. "Occupancy" means the use or possession, or the right to the use or possession of any room or rooms or portion thereof, in any hotel for dwelling, lodging or sleeping purposes. d. TRANSIENT. "Transient" means any person who exercises occupancy or is entitled to occupancy by reason of con- cession, permit, right of access, license or other agree- ment for a period of 30 consecutive calendar days or less, counting portions of calendar days as full days. Any such person so occupying space in a hotel shall be deemed to be a transient until the period of 30 days has expired un- less there is an agreement in writing between the operator and the occupant providing for a longer period of occupan- cy. In determining whether a person is a transient, unin- terrupted periods of time extending both prior and subse- quent to the effective date of this ordinance may be con- sidered. e. RENT. "Rent" means the consideration charged, whether or not received, for the occupancy of space in a hotel valued in money, whether to be received in money, goods, labor or otherwise, including all receipts , cash, credits and property and services of any kind or nature, without any deduction therefrom whatsoever. f.

"Tax Collector" means the Tax Collector of the County of Riverside and includes his deputies, agents, and employees. Section 3 . TAX IMPOSED. For the privilege of occupancy in any hotel, each transient is subject to and shall pay a tax in the amount of "6%" of the rent charged by the operator. Said tax constitutes a debt owed by the transient 495-3 to the county which is extinguished only by payment to the operator or to the county. The transient shall pay the tax to the operator of the hotel at the time the rent is paid. If the rent is paid in installments, a proportionate share of the tax shall be paid with each installment. The unpaid tax shall be due upon the transient's ceasing to occupy space in the hotel. If for any reason the tax due is not paid to the operator of the hotel, the Tax Collector may require that such tax shall be paid directly to the Tax Collector. Section 4. EXEMPTIONS. No tax shall be imposed upon any officer or employee of a foreign government who is exempt by reason of express provision of federal law or international treaty. No exemption shall be granted except upon written claim therefor made under penalty of perjury at the time the rent is paid, upon a form prescribed by the Tax Collector. Federal, State and local officers and employees are not exempt. Section 5. OPERATOR'S DUTIES. Each operator shall collect the tax imposed by this ordinance to the same extent and at the same time as the rent is collected from every transient. The amount of tax shall be separately stated from the amount of the rent charged, and each transient shall receive a receipt for payment from the operator. No operator of a hotel shall advertise or state in any manner, whether directly or indirectly, that the tax or any part thereof will be assumed or absorbed by the operator, or that it will not be added to the rent, or that, if added, any part will be refunded except in the manner herein- after provided. Section 6 . REGISTRATION. Within 30 days after the effective date of this ordinance, or within 30 days after commencing business, whichever is later, each operator of any hotel renting occupancy to transients shall register said hotel with the Tax Collector and obtain from him a "Transient Occupancy Regis- tration Certificate" to be at all times posted in a conspicuous place on the pre- mises. Said certificate shall, among other things , state the following: I . The name of the operator; 2 . The address of the hotel; 3. The date upon which the certificate was issued; 4. "This Transient Occupancy Registration Certificate signifies that the person named on the face hereof has fulfilled the re- quirements of the Uniform Transient Occupancy Tax Ordinance by registering with the Tax Collector for the purpose of col- lecting from transients the Transient Occupancy Tax and re- mitting said tax to the Tax Collector. This certificate does not authorize any person to conduct any unlawful business or to conduct any lawful business in an unlawful manner, nor to operate a hotel without strictly complying with all local applicable laws, including but not limited to those requiring a permit from any board, commission, department or office of this county. This certificate does not constitute a permit. " 495-4 Section 7 . REPORTING AND REMITTING. Each operator shall, on or before the last day of the month following the close of each calendar quarter, or at the close of any shorter reporting period which may be established by the Tax Collec- tor, make a return to the Tax Collector, on forms provided by him, of the total rents charged and received and the amount of tax collected for transient occu- pancies . At the time the return is filed, the full amount of the tax collected shall be remitted to the Tax Collector. The Tax Collector may establish shorter reporting periods for any certificate holder if he deems it necessary in order to insure col- lection of the tax and he may require further information in the return. Returns and payments are due immediately upon cessation of business for any reason. All taxes collected by operators pursuant to this ordinance shall be held in trust for the ac- count of the county until payment thereof is made to the Tax Collector. Section 8. PENALTIES AND INTEREST. a. ORIGINAL DELINQUENCY. Any operator who fails to remit any tax imposed by this ordinance within the time required shall pay a penalty of 10% of the amount of the tax in addi- tion to the amount of the tax. b. CONTINUED DELINQUENCY. Any operator who fails to remit any delinquent remittance on or before the first day of the next calendar month following the date on which the remittance first became delinquent shall pay a second de- linquency penalty of 10% of the amount of the tax in addition to the amount of the tax and the 10% penalty first imposed. c. FRAUD. If the Tax Collector determines that the nonpay- ment of any remittance due under this ordinance is due to fraud, a penalty of 25% of the amount of the tax shall be added thereto in addition to the penalties stated in para- graphs (a) and (b) of this section. d. INTEREST. In addition to the penalties imposed, any op- erator who fails to remit any tax imposed by this ordinance shall pay interest at the rate of one-half of 1% per month or fraction thereof on the amount of the tax, exclusive of penalties, from the date on which the remittance first be- came delinquent until paid. e. PENALTIES MERGED WITH TAX. Every penalty imposed and such interest as accrues under the provisions of this section shall become a part of the tax herein required to be paid. Section 9 . FAILURE TO COLLECT AND REPORT TAX. DETERMINATION OF TAX BY TAX COLLECTOR. If any operator shall fail or refuse to collect said tax and to make, within the time provided in this ordinance, any report and remit- tance of said tax or any portion thereof required by this ordinance, the Tax Col- lector shall proceed in such manner as he may deem best to obtain facts and information on which to base his estimate of the tax due. As soon as the Tax Collector shall procure such facts and information as he is able to obtain upon which to base the assessment of any tax imposed by this ordinance and payable by any operator who has failed or refused to collect the same and to make such 495-5 report and remittance, he shall proceed to determine and assess against such operator the tax, interest and penalties provided for by this ordinance. In case such determination is made, the Tax Collector shall give a notice of the amount so assessed by serving it personally or by depositing it in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the operator so assessed at his last known place of address. Such operator may within 10 days after the serving or mailing of such notice make application in writing to the Tax Collector for a hearing on the amount assessed. If application by the operator for a hearing is not made within the time presecibed, the tax, interest and penalties, if any, determined by the Tax Collector shall become final and conclusive and immediately due and payable. If such application is made, the Tax Collector shall give not less than 5 days written notice in the manner prescribed herein to the operator to show cause at a time and place fixed in said notice why said amount specified therein should not be fixed for such tax, interest and penalties. At such hearing, the operator may appear and offer evidence why such specified tax, interest and penalties should not be so fixed.

GENERAL. Subject to the control of the Board of Supervisors , there is hereby delegated to the County Road Commissioner the administration of the use of County highways for excavations and encroachments, the main- tenance, planting and removal of trees, and the issuance, modification and revocation of permits for such uses. Section 2 . ENCROACHMENTS AND EXCAVATIONS. No person, including firm, corporation, public district, public agency or political subdivision, shall make any excavation in, or construct, install or maintain any improve- ment, structure or encroachment in, on , over or under, any County highway or the right of way thereof without first obtaining from the County Road Com- missioner a permit therefor, or maintain the same without such permit or in violation of the terms or conditions thereof. Such a permit shall be issued by the County Road Commissioner only upon written application therefor, and payment of the required fee or fees. Such permit shall be issued only if the applicant is a public utility holding a current franchise from the County of Riverside, or a public district or public utility or public service agency hav- ing lawful authority to use the right of way or highway for the purpose spec- ified, or the owner of an easement for such purpose within the highway right of way, or if the Road Commissioner is satisfied that the use proposed is in the public interest and that there will be no substantial injury to the highway or impairment of its use as the result thereof, and that the use is reasonably necessary for the performance of the functions of the applicant. Every such permit shall be revocable and the uses and installations thereunder shall be subordinate to any prior right of the County to use the right of way for public road purposes. Every such permit shall be conditional upon the right of the County to require the permittee to relocate or remove the structure or encroach- ment at the permittee's expense for the benefit of the County or to relocate the structure or encroachment at the permittee's expense, where in the opinion of the County Road Commissioner such action is reasonably necessary to avoid a crossing conflict, for the benefit of any public district, public agency or polit- ical subdivision, or of any other person or agency having a right to use the County highway for the purpose proposed; but the acceptance of a permit shall not be deemed a waiver by the permittee of any contractual or statutory right against any party for reimbursement of the expense of such removal or reloca- tion. Every such permit shall be subject to such conditions as the County Road Commissioner determines are necessary to assure the safety of the trav- eling public and the restoration of the surface of the highway and the founda- tions thereof, and of the portions outside the traveled roadway. The County 499-2 Road Commissioner may require such surety bond or deposit of money as in his judgment may be necessary to secure performance of the conditions of the permit and the replacement or restoration of the surface and the subsur- face of the highway and the right of way, and any survey monuments or other improvements that may have been disturbed. The County Road Commissioner may, where convenient to road work he has programmed, or for other reasons of County convenience, arrange to do the work of replacement to pavement or restoration of the roadway at the expense of the permittee. If any permittee shall fail to refill any excavation or to restore the County highway or right of way to its condition prior to the excavation, the County Road Commissioner shall have the right to perform said work and collect in the name of the County the cost thereof. Section 3. EXCEPTIONS. An excavation or encroachment may be made without first obtaining a permit for repair or replacement of a facility previ- ously installed only when necessary for the immediate protection or preser- vation of life or property, and provided that such a permit be obtained on the first business day thereafter, and further provided that said excavation is made in such manner as to give full protection to the users of such highway and the County of Riverside . Section 4 . TREE REMOVAL. No person, firm, corporation, public district, public agency or political subdivision shall remove or severely trim any tree planted in the right of way of any County highway without first obtaining a per- mit from the County Road Commissioner to do so. Such permit shall be issued without fee, if the County Road Commissioner is satisfied that such removal or trimming is in the public interest or is necessary for the improvement of the right of way or the construction of improvements on adjacent land. He may impose such conditions as he deems reasonable or necessary, including re- quirements for the work to be done only by a qualified tree surgeon or tree trimmer actually engaged in that business, and for bond, insurance or other security to protect person and property from injury or damage. The provisions limiting trimming of trees shall not apply to any public utility maintaining overhead power or communication lines pursuant to franchise, where necessary to prevent interference of a tree with such installation. A permit for removal of a tree may be conditioned upon its relocation or replacement by one or more other trees of a kind or type to be specified in the permit. Section 5. APPLICATION. Each application for a permit under this ordi- nance shall be in writing in the name of the person or agency owning the en- croachment and controlling the excavation and shall be signed by such person or agency or by his or its agent authorized in writing. The application shall be submitted on a form supplied by the County Road Commissioner and shall con- tain or be accompanied by such information as he may require. Each permit shall be in writing, signed by the County Road Commissioner or his represen- tative, on a form to be furnished by him. 499-3 Section 6 . FEES. The permit fees and inspection fees required by this ordinance shall be paid at or after the time the application is filed, but in any event before the permit is issued. Said fees for permits, which shall not be refundable, and for inspections shall be as follows: a. For tree removal or tree trimming, no fee. b.

For each private driveway, a permit fee of $5. 00 and an in- spection fee of $1 . 50. e.

Upon completion of his investigation the Health Officer shall recommend to the Board of Supervisors that a permit be granted or denied for the requested ambulance service area.

PERMIT REQUIRED Section 1 . Every person or entity, (hereafter called "person" or "permittee") , except as otherwise provided in this ordinance , is required to obtain a permit from the Road Commissioner, before he moves or causes to be moved any load along or across any county road. "Load" means any object or thing, including a vehicle or combination of vehicles which, when travelling along or across any county road, is required to have a special permit pursuant to the Vehicle Code, and includes , but is not limited to, any over-size or over-weight vehicle , house, vessel, machine, equipment, transformer, tree, boat, airplane, and mobile home. It is not intended that the Road Commissioner issue a permit to move any load when the weight and/or size of the load plus the weight and/or size of the vehicle or other equipment exceeds limitations of the Vehicle Code , except where it is impractical to change the physical characteristics of the load. The Road Commissioner may issue a permit to move such load, where he has determined that it is not in conflict with the public interest to do so. The fact that an over-size vehicle is duly registered does not imply that a permit must be issued, or exempt such load from the necessity of securing a permit to operate on any county road. The permits must be secured and in possession of the operator before the vehicle may be legally operated. Section 2 . A person shall not obstruct the Road Commissioner in making any inspection to determine compliance with the conditions of the permit. Section 3 . Whenever this ordinance requires a permittee to perform any work, take any action, or be liable for any fees, or costs, such requirement applies to any person who commences any work or movement for which a permit is required whether such person obtains a permit or not. Section 4 . The permittee shall make the permit available for inspection by the Road Commissioner or by any peace officer or other public officer or employee having responsiblilty for safety or maintenance of the county road. Each permit for moving must be in or attached to the vehicle or combination of vehicles to which it refers. In cases where a building or structure is moved in more than one section at the same time, on each section on which the original permit is not attached there shall be affixed a true copy of the original permit. 524-2 Section 5. The Road Commissioner for cause may cancel a permit unless the permitted activity is commenced within the time specified and is diligently prosecuted to completion. Section 6 . The permittee shall investigate and be aware of all existing facilities lawfully within the county roads which are within the limits of his activity. The permittee shall not interfere with any such existing public or private facility without the consent of its owner. If it becomes necessary to relocate an existing facility, this shall be arranged for by the permittee, to be done by its owner or to the satisfaction of its owner. The cost of moving publicly and privately owned facilities shall be borne by the permittee. Section 7 . Every permittee shall obey and comply with every order, decision, direction or rule of the Road Commissioner in the matters specified in the permit, or other matter relating to the permitted use of a county road, and shall do everything necessary to secure compliance therewith by officers, agents , and employees of the permittee. ARTICLE II. REGULATION Section 8 . The Road Commissioner shall cause to be prepared regulations for use in compliance with this ordinance. Said regulations shall make such requirements as are necessary to protect the public and cause the public the least possible inconvenience; provide for appropriate methods of protecting surface, sub-surface, and over-head utilities within a county road or adjacent thereto; provide for protection of the finish surface, base and sub-base of county roads; provide for the protection of private and public property adjacent to county roads; provide for any necessary temporary re-location of any utili- ties or other property within a county road; provide for repair, at the expense of the permittee, of any improvement which is damaged by reason of an act of permittee, whether or not such an act is in accordance with his permit; provide a method of designating which county roads are to be used, and at what time, for the movement of particular loads; and provide for the collection of permit fees and for the collection and disbursement of any deposit which may by required. The Road Commissioner shall have in his office , copies of said regula- tions and this ordinance for inspection by the public , and for distribution to the public, which may be sold at cost. Section 9 . Application for a permit shall be made in writing to the Road Commissioner, on the forms provided or approved by him. Section 10. On each application the applicant or his agent shall sign a statement that the applicant agrees to preserve and save harmless the County of Riverside, its officers, and employees, from any liability or responsibility for any accident, loss or damage to persons or property happening or occurring as the proximate result of his activities pursuant to the permit applied for, including wrongful or accidental death. 52 4-3 Section 11 . The permittee shall protect all street improvements , and other facilities within the county road by methods satisfactory to their owners .

Every person offering for sale or selling any gasoline or other motor vehicle fuel at retail to the public from any place of business in the unincorporated area of the County of Riverside, shall post or display a sign or signs which show , clearly visible from any street or highway abutting or adjacent to such place of business , the actual price per gallon, including all taxes, at which each grade of gasoline or other motor vehicle fuel is currently being offered for sale or sold. Section 1 . 1 . Notwithstanding the foregoing, no person shall be required to post the price of more than two grades of gasoline in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this ordinance . Section 2 . No person shall advertise, either in connection with a sign required by Section 1 or otherwise, any grade of gasoline or other motor fuel which is not immediately available for sale to the public on the business premises . Section 3 . Any sign posted or displayed pursuant to this ordinance shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of Section 20880, et seq . of the California Business and Professions Code or with the provisions of Article XIX of Riverside County Ordinance No. 348 relating to size, height or location of signs . Section 4. This Ordinance is an urgency measure and shall take effect upon its adoption. The facts constituting the urgency are that the national fuel shortage has brought about divergent and rapidly fluctuating prices among service stations , and the inability of the motoring public to learn the price of fuel until they are at the pump has resulted in public aggravation and mis- leading of consumers; therefore , this Ordinance is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety and welfare .
