TO: City Council
FROM: Assistant Director of Aviation via Interim Director of Aviation
City of Palm Springs Municipal Code Ordinance Amendment
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached amendment to Section
11.34.110 of the Municipal Code which clarifies that Meeters and Greeters companies must
pay a fee to the Airport.
SUMMARY:
An amendment to Section 11.34.110 of the Municipal Code to incorporate regulations for
new charges for destination management/greeting service companies which conduct
business activity on the Iandside of the airport is attached for City Council review.
BACKGROUND:
On October 17, 2001, City Council approved Resolution No. 20206 for Landside Activity
Comprehensive Fee Schedule Charges. Subsequently, a conflict in the Municipal Code
for meeters and greeters was discovered, whereby the existing section stated "no-fee
permits"which is now being corrected in the attached proposed Ordinance amendment by
leaving out "no fee."
Airport staff recommends approval of the proposed amendment to the Municipal Code be
adopted by the City Council as submitted.
