ATTY/DOCS-STAFF REPORTS/DRAFTS/DOCKTOWN STAFF REPORT STORAGE POLICY REV: 09-17-15 PT Page 2 of 2 unauthorized berthing fee, and--if need be-- can cause the sale for the boat to enforce its lien. Some of the boats illegally berthed at Docktown are physically difficult to move. Therefore, the unauthorized berthing fee would not go into effect immediately, but would instead go into effect forty-five (45) days after adoption of the Policy. Immediately upon adoption, staff would widely publicize the adoption of the Policy, including posting the Policy at Docktown, publishing the policy on the City web site, and, to the extent possible, mailing the policy to the owner of each unauthorized boat and posting the policy at the berthing site of each unauthorized boat. The purpose of this notification campaign would be to give owners of unauthorized boats plenty of time to enter into an agreement legitimizing their berthing or to arrange for the removal of their boat. The Policy also authorizes the City to remove unauthorized boats to a dry dock storage area or some other location, or to lock an unauthorized boat in place. Release of a removed or locked-in-place boat could occur only once the owner paid the actual costs of removal, plus outstanding unauthorized berthing fees and a $75 release fee. ALTERNATIVES Council may direct staff to reconsider other possible alternatives to present to Council at a later date. FISCAL IMPACT Recover costs for storing unauthorized boats. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW This activity is not a project under CEQA as defined in CEQA Guidelines, section 15378, because it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or foreseeable physical change in the environment.
