AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
ELECTING TO HAVE SEWER SERVICE CHARGES
COLLECTED ON THE TAX ROLL, AND
ADDING SECTION 14.04.075 TO THE
NATIONAL CITY MUNICIPAL CODE
WHEREAS, because the existing method of collecting sewer service
charges by the mailing of bills to businesses and residents has proved to be
inefficient, it has been proposed that sewer service charges be collected on the tax
roll, as authorized by Section 5473 et seq. of the California Health and Safety
Code.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED that the City Council of the City
of National City hereby authorizes and directs pursuant to Section 5473 et seq. of
the California Health and Safety Code, that sewer service charges, together with
any delinquent charges or penalties for nonpayment of such charges, be collected
on the tax roll in the same manner, by the same person, and at the same time as,
together with, and not separately from, the City's general taxes.
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that Section 14.04.075 is hereby added to
Chapter 14.04 of the National City Municipal Code, to read as follows:
14.04.75 Sewer Service Charges - Collection on Tax Roll.
In addition to and as an alternative to other procedures for the
collection of sewer service charges, such charges, together with any
delinquent charges or penalties for nonpayment of such charges, may
be collected on the tax roll by following the procedure set forth in
Section 5373 et seq. of the California Health and Safety Code.
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that the City Council hereby declares that
should any section, portion or provision of this ordinance be determined for any
reason to be invalid, it is the intent of the City Council that it would have passed all
other sections, portions and provisions of this ordinance independent of the
elimination herefrom of any such section, portion or provision as may be declared
invalid. It is further the intent of the City Council that if any section, portion or
provision declared invalid can be severed from the remainder, or be construed in
such a manner as to give valid meaning and effect to the remaining sections,
portions or provisions, then it may be so severed or construed so as to carry out
the purpose and intent of this ordinance.
