RECOMMENDATION(S):

INTRODUCE Ordinance No. 2016-06 to provide for new device registration fees and inspections of point-of-sale systems, WAIVE reading, and FIX hearing for March 1, 2016.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Increased fees, no negative fiscal impact

BACKGROUND:

The 2015 revisions to the California Department of Food and Agriculture, Business and Professions Code 12240, allows for higher fees to partially recover the costs of registering and inspecting commercial weighing and measuring devices. The proposed fee increase will offset some of the current costs of registrations and inspections.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The County will not recover costs of registering and inspecting commercial weighing and measuring devices.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
