Prior to the issuance of any permit pursuant to Section 10-45, a fee as specified in the Master Fee Schedule shall be paid for each item.

(Ord. 93-22 7-20-93; Ord. 13-04 11-5-13)

Prior to issuance of an outdoor restaurant encroachment permit pursuant to Section 10-45, a nonrefundable fee in the sum of $250 shall be paid to the Public Works Department for each outdoor restaurant encroachment permit and subsequently renewed thereafter on an annual basis. The outdoor restaurant encroachment permit fee shall pay for the cost of incidental sidewalk, curb and public right-of-way repairs and for maintenance associated with the normal use of the outdoor restaurant. The encroachment permit fee must be paid for after the Permits and Licenses Committee has approved the outdoor restaurant request.

A refundable security deposit of $250 must be paid by the outdoor restaurant operator to the Public Works Department prior to issuance of the outdoor encroachment permit. The refundable fee will be maintained on reserve by the City for the life of the permit but may also be applied to the cost of additional repairs, damage or vandalism to public property directly related to the use of the outdoor restaurant.

(Ord. 02-14 3-19-02)

Notwithstanding the provisions for issuance and renewal of an outdoor restaurant encroachment permit, the Public Works Director may immediately suspend the use and occupying of the public sidewalk utilized by an approved outdoor restaurant establishment for a designated time period at any time in the event that such use or occupation of the public sidewalk would interfere with street and/or utility improvements, repairs, construction, maintenance activities or emergency situations. In the event the temporary suspension exceeds five consecutive days, the restaurant operator may submit a written request to obtain a pro-rata refund of the annual encroachment permit fee. In the event of temporary suspension or other interruption of use, the operator shall hold the City harmless for any and all loss of business or operations.

(Ord. 02-14 3-19-02)

Permits issued by the Committee on Permits and Licenses for any outdoor restaurant or food service use may be suspended or revoked by the Committee at any time for continued or repeated violations of any rule or regulation of the Inglewood Municipal Code, or for the violation of any ordinance of the City or laws of the State of California. The procedure for such suspension or revocation shall be that set forth in Sections 8-46 through 8-47 of the Inglewood Municipal Code.
