STAFF REPORT
RE:
MEETING DATE:
Business License Penalty Waiver
SUBMITTED BY:
11/3/2015
Daniel Buffalo, Finance Director
PURPOSE OF REPORT:
Information only
Discussion
Action Item
WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/BOARD:
The City Council is being asked to waive late payment penalties associated with the business license renewal for
Grocery Outlet.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Chapter 5.04 of the Lakeport City Code requires all commercial enterprise doing business in the City of Lakeport
to file an application and pay a fee for the privilege. Section 5.04.210 (last revised in 1969) subjects any such
business that files a renewal application after the prescribed due date to a penalty of fifty percent the
outstanding fee owed. Grocery Outlet renewed its application eleven days after it was due and, subsequently,
was subject to the penalty, totaling $175.50. It paid the penalty accordingly.
The Council has discretion to waive the penalty upon request, which the owner has done. Because of the short
amount of time the renewal was past due, staff recommends granting the waiver.
Further, upon more detailed review of the code, staff believes that certain sections pertaining to business
licensing are dated and in need of updating. Management will bring such proposed revisions to Council at a
later date.
OPTIONS:
1. Approve the waiver of penalties associated with the business license renewal of Grocery Outlet in
Lakeport for the 2015-16 license period.
2. Do not approve but provide direction to staff.
FISCAL IMPACT:

WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/BOARD:
The City Council is being asked to receive and file an annual report pursuant to the Maddy Act.

committees which are appointed by the legislative body of the local agency.
Pursuant to the Maddy Act, the list must contain the list of all appointive terms that expire during the next
calendar year, with the name of the incumbent appointee, the date of appointment, the date the term expires,

Upon filing of the report, staff will begin actively recruiting vacant positions and bring back candidates to the

The City Council is being asked to consider the approval of an agreement between the City of Lakeport,

franchise fee specifically and exclusively for the purpose of funding to support PEG Channel facilities. The
additional 1% franchise fee is remitted to each entity by Mediacom. Each entity then remits the fee to the
City of Clearlake special agency fund for the capital budget utilized exclusively for allowable incurred
expenses by the PEG Channel for their capital budget.
In 2014, Mayor Scheel was appointed to the PEG Board by the PEG Board members.
DISCUSSION:
If the agreement is approved, general supervision of the PEG Channel shall be under the control of a Board
of PEG Channel Directors, made of five (5) members, three of whom shall be appointed by the governing
boards of the respective governmental entities, (1) appointed by Board of Supervisors; one (1) appointed by
the Clearlake City Council; one (1) appointed by the Lakeport City Council; and two (2) members of the
general public appointed by three Directors appointed by the parties to this Agreement.
This agreement between the three entities to operate the PEG Channel will provide funds to the operating
budget. The County of Lake is committing $15,000, the City of Clearlake is committing $8,000 (in-kind
staff, facilities, insurance, and operating expenses), and the City of Lakeport is committing $2,000, on an
annual basis.

STAFF REPORT
RE:
MEETING DATE:
Business License Penalty Waiver
SUBMITTED BY:
11/3/2015
Daniel Buffalo, Finance Director
PURPOSE OF REPORT:
Information only
Discussion
Action Item
WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/BOARD:
The City Council is being asked to waive late payment penalties associated with the business license renewal for
Grocery Outlet.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Chapter 5.04 of the Lakeport City Code requires all commercial enterprise doing business in the City of Lakeport
to file an application and pay a fee for the privilege. Section 5.04.210 (last revised in 1969) subjects any such
business that files a renewal application after the prescribed due date to a penalty of fifty percent the
outstanding fee owed. Grocery Outlet renewed its application eleven days after it was due and, subsequently,
was subject to the penalty, totaling $175.50. It paid the penalty accordingly.
The Council has discretion to waive the penalty upon request, which the owner has done. Because of the short
amount of time the renewal was past due, staff recommends granting the waiver.
Further, upon more detailed review of the code, staff believes that certain sections pertaining to business
licensing are dated and in need of updating. Management will bring such proposed revisions to Council at a
later date.
OPTIONS:
1. Approve the waiver of penalties associated with the business license renewal of Grocery Outlet in
Lakeport for the 2015-16 license period.
2. Do not approve but provide direction to staff.

SUBMITTED BY: Margaret Silveira, City Manager
PURPOSE OF REPORT:
Information only
Discussion
Action Item
WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/BOARD:
The City Council is being asked to consider the approval of an agreement between the City of Lakeport,
Clearlake and the County of Lake relative to the operation of a local public educational, governmental
(PEG) channel.
BACKGROUND:
In 2007, the County of Lake and the City of Clearlake entered into a written agreement in where they jointly
assumed formal responsibility for the operation and maintenance and funding of this PEG Channel.
In 2013, the City of Lakeport, along with the City of Clearlake and the County, implemented the portion of
Section 5870(n) of the Public Utilities Code which enables each of the entities to impose an additional 1%
franchise fee specifically and exclusively for the purpose of funding to support PEG Channel facilities. The
additional 1% franchise fee is remitted to each entity by Mediacom. Each entity then remits the fee to the
City of Clearlake special agency fund for the capital budget utilized exclusively for allowable incurred
expenses by the PEG Channel for their capital budget.
In 2014, Mayor Scheel was appointed to the PEG Board by the PEG Board members.
DISCUSSION:
If the agreement is approved, general supervision of the PEG Channel shall be under the control of a Board
of PEG Channel Directors, made of five (5) members, three of whom shall be appointed by the governing
boards of the respective governmental entities, (1) appointed by Board of Supervisors; one (1) appointed by
the Clearlake City Council; one (1) appointed by the Lakeport City Council; and two (2) members of the
general public appointed by three Directors appointed by the parties to this Agreement.
This agreement between the three entities to operate the PEG Channel will provide funds to the operating
budget. The County of Lake is committing $15,000, the City of Clearlake is committing $8,000 (in-kind
staff, facilities, insurance, and operating expenses), and the City of Lakeport is committing $2,000, on an
annual basis.
OPTIONS:
Approve to Agreement.
Approve Agreement with modifications.
Disapprove Agreement.
