SUBJECT. AGENDA ITEM 10A -REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING OF MARCH 31,2015
ORDINANCE NO. 08-15 (SECOND READING
BACKGROUND
The Beach Parking Permit program allows for the purchase of a permit to allow parking in any of the
beach area parking lots without having to pay the parking meters. Currently the cost of the permit is $90
plus sales tax, totaling $95.40.
In 2011, a Senior Permit was added to the program, allowing patrons 62 years of age and over to also
park on Ocean Boulevard, (SR A 1 A), without paying meters, at a cost of $95.00 plus tax, totaling
$100.70.
The permits are currently valid from October 1St to September 30th of the following year with no
prorating. As a result of public comments at a City Commission meeting, the Commission directed staff
to bring forward a modification to the program allowing prorating of passes purchased after October 1
in a particular year.
Considering the marginal cost of the permit and the challenges prorating can cause, staff is
recommending one prorating at the %2 year, effective April 1 st of each year, at which time passes would
be half the price of the annual permit, ($45.00 plus tax, $47.70 for the regular permit and $47.50, plus
tax, $50.35 for the senior permit.
Beach Parking Permits are regulated through the City Code of Ordinances Title VII, Section 71.060(A)
through (E).
