AGENDA REPORT
CITY OF MOORPARK
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Nelson Miller, Director of Community Developmen
DATE: August 27, 1996 (CC Meeting on September 4, 1996)
SUBJECT: Consider Refund Request from Anna Bell Sessler and Luis
Martinez, Appellants for Appeal 96 -3, Relating to
Determination of Pawnshops as an Equivalent Use.
Attached is a request from the appellants for Appeal 96 -3 for a
refund of the fees paid for this appeal based on the reasons
indicated in their letter.
A deposit of $336 was paid to initiate this appeal. Community
Development staff costs are charged based on real -time cost
accounting. For this application, staff charged 1.5 hours, not
including the time spent at the City Council hearing. City Council
Resolution No. 95 -1157 establishes a rate of $84.00 per hour for
Community Development staff time. Therefore, the costs for this
application would be $126. Appellants would be eligible for a
refund of $210, less any costs of processing a refund from the
Administrative Services staff.
Neither Section 17.44.040I of the Municipal Code relating to
application fees, nor City Council Resolution No. 95 -1157
establishing fee deposits, provide criteria for refund or waiver of
fees. Therefore, it is strictly a policy determination by the
Council with respect to refund or waiver of any fees.
Direct staff as deemed appropriate.

-- RECEIVED -
To the City Council:
Honorable Members of the Council: City of moorpal
As citizens of this community we wish to protest and appeal the recent decision to allow a pawn
shop on High Street.
Such a business does not reflect the plans constantly stated for the downtown area..
We are planning on depositing any required fees, in order to bring this to the council's attention
but do feel that since that consideration is in the best interests of the entire business community,
our deposit should be refunded.
We will proceed in this manner since we cannot see what other method is available to allow the
council to consider this poorly considered decision.
Sincerely,
0\
