A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SARATOGA
ESTABLISHING A SCHEDULE OF FEES FOR SECOND RESPONSES
BY THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT TO INCIDENTS
CAUSED BY PUBLIC DISTURBANCES
WHEREAS, on April 4, 1990, the City Council did pass an Ordinance
adding Section 6-15.120 and 6-15.130 to the City concerning
unlawful gatherings and disturbances; and
WHEREAS, Section 6-15.130 finds that a second response by police
personnel to a public disturbance determined by the police offi-
cer to constitute a threat to public peace, health, safety, or
general welfare, is deemed to be on a special security assignment
over and above the services normally provided; and
WHEREAS, Section 6-15.130 also finds that the person or persons
responsible for the event shall be liable for the cost of provid-
ing police personnel on a special security assignment, and that
such costs are to be established by resolution adopted by the
City Council.
WHEREAS, staff has concluded that a $1.39 per minute per officer
represents a reasonable estimate of the average costs for provid-
ing police support services at such public disturbances over a
year ' s period.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Saratoga that the fees to be charged for second and subsequent
responses shall be $1.39 per minute per officer, and that the
total cost per event shall not exceed $700. Over and above these
charges will be charges for injury to officers, and damages to
City and/or County property, applied on an actual-cost basis, and
not subject to the $700 maximum limit.
