ITEM FOR CONSIDERATION
SUBJECT: Proposed Amendment to Santa Barbara Municipal Code 17.36.010 to Allow Pay-by-Plate in Waterfront Parking Lots

ORDINANCE COMMITTEE AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: October 7, 2025
TO: Ordinance Committee
FROM: Waterfront Department
SUBJECT: Proposed Amendment to Santa Barbara Municipal Code 17.36.010 to Allow Pay-by-Plate in Waterfront Parking Lots
RECOMMENDATION:

That the Ordinance Committee forward to City Council for introduction, an Ordinance of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Amending the Santa Barbara Municipal Code (“SBMC”) by Amending Section 17.36.010 to Allow Pay-by-Plate in Waterfront Parking Lots.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Waterfront Department proposes an Amendment to Santa Barbara Municipal Code

17.36.010 to transition from a Pay-and-Display System to a Pay-by-Plate System in Waterfront Parking Lots. The transition is designed to streamline enforcement operations, improve revenue controls, and align with current parking industry practices. The proposed amendment will enable enforcement staff, also referred to as Parking Monitors, to verify parking paid status via License Plate Reader (LPR) technology to improve accuracy, efficiency, and coverage. The proposed plan includes privacy and data governance measures to ensure privacy compliance.

DISCUSSION:

The Waterfront Department operates eight parking lots encompassing approximately 2,580 parking stalls. Two of the parking lots, Stearns Wharf and Harbor Main, are staffed and use revenue control/point of sale systems that operate with ticket dispensers, entry and exit gate arms, and License Plate Reader hardware; technology the Waterfront Department acquired and implemented in 2014. The other six Waterfront Parking Lots operate a Pay-and-Display Parking System, requiring drivers to purchase a time-limited parking session at a nearby pay station and display the receipt on their vehicle’s dashboard. Enforcement relies on manual on-foot verification of displayed receipts.

Proposed Amendment to Santa Barbara Municipal Code 17.36.010 to Allow Pay-by-Plate in Waterfront Parking Lots

Page 2 ends

The proposed Title 17 amendment would allow the Waterfront Department to implement a Pay-by-Plate Parking System, which would incorporate a LPR-based enforcement module, widely used across municipalities to improve enforcement efficiencies, reduce violations, and enhance the customer experience. Under the proposed amendment, upon entry to the parking lot, visitors would be required to enter their vehicle license plate to pay for their parking session at any pay station located inside the parking lot. In addition, this technology would facilitate integration of mobile payment apps, as well as remote payment options.

This transition supports operational efficiency, modernizes parking management, and aligns with best practices for municipal parking operations at State and national levels.

CONCLUSION:

The proposed amendment to transition from a Pay and Display System to a Pay-By-Plate System aims to modernize the Waterfront Parking Operation, enhance enforcement efficiency as well as improve the customer experience when visiting City beaches and adjacent businesses.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: October 7, 2025
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: City Administrator’s Office
SUBJECT: Amending Municipal Code Title 10, Section 10.44.152 - Regulation of Parking Upon Municipally Owned and/or Operated Parking Lots [Ordinance Introduction]
RECOMMENDATION:

That Council introduce and subsequently adopt, by reading of title only, an Ordinance of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Amending Section 10.44.152 of the Santa Barbara Municipal Code Regarding Regulation of Parking Upon Municipally Owned and/or Operated Parking Lots.

DISCUSSION:

Staff recommend amending Santa Barbara Municipal Code (SBMC) Title 10, Section

10.44.152, titled “Regulation of Parking Upon Municipally Owned and/or Operated Parking Lots,” to allow for the use of new parking payment technologies and systems in City of Santa Barbara (City) Downtown Parking Lots, such as self-service payment kiosks.

The requested changes eliminate inflexible language specifying that fees must be paid prior to exiting a parking lot to either an attendant or by mail, and adds language allowing the City Administrator to determine which payment methods, processes, and enforcement procedures may be accepted at each parking facility. This change provides the City with the ability to implement a variety of modern payment systems at Downtown Parking lots to enhance customer experience and improve parking operations without having to amend the ordinance each time.

These changes will enable the City’s Downtown Parking Lots to implement a pay-on-foot system, similar to the system used in the Waterfront parking lots, in the Helena Lot located in the Funk Zone. This pilot project will enable the City to experiment with new revenue control models that could inform future investments in parking technology. Additionally, these changes allows for changes in the timing of payment that make enforcement of this pay-on-foot system feasible.

Page 2 ends

Ordinance Committee
The proposed changes were reviewed by Ordinance Committee on September 9, 2025.

The Committee voted 2-1 to forward staff’s recommendation to City Council, with the following comments:
 Look at the administrative process, possibly changing authority from the Public Works Director to the City Administrator.

Response: Language in 10.44.152 has been updated to give authority to determine which payment methods are accepted at each municipal parking facility, establish procedures for payment processing and enforcement, and modify or expand authorized payment methods in municipally owned or operated parking lots.  Clarify that street parking is excluded.

Response: This ordinance applies only to parking in municipally owned or operated parking lots. Street parking is excluded. The proposed changes would not enable implementation of priced street parking without further Council action. Any implementation of paid street parking would require Council to adopt fees and approve the purchase of equipment.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

This change will allow the pilot of pay-on-foot parking in the Helena Parking Lot. The ability to receive payment for parking in this lot is estimated to bring in $75,000 annually.

The success of the pilot payment system demonstrates the potential to implement the self-service payment model in other Downtown Parking surface parking lots to reduce operating costs and enhance the customer’s experience.

At their meeting of September 9, 2025, the Ordinance Committee voted 2/1 to forward to Council for approval.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: October 7, 2025
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Sustainability & Resilience Department
SUBJECT: Adoption of Resolution Amending the City’s Records Retention Policy and Procedures to Include the Sustainability & Resilience Department’s Records Retention Schedule [Resolution]
RECOMMENDATION:

That Council adopt, by reading of title only, a Resolution of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Amending the City of Santa Barbara Records Management Policies and Procedures Manual to Include the Sustainability & Resilience Department’s Records Retention Schedule.

DISCUSSION:

Council adopted Resolution No. 25-076 on July 29, 2025, approving an update of the City of Santa Barbara Records Retention Policy and Procedures Manual (Manual). The Manual contains the records retention and disposition schedules for all City departments.

The schedules are a comprehensive listing of records created or maintained by the City, the length of time each record should be retained, and the legal retention authority. If no legal retention authority is cited, the retention period is based on standard records management practice.

The Sustainability & Resilience Department’s (S&R Department) records retention schedule has to date been housed within other department’s schedules due to multiple S&R Department divisions previously existing under other City departments. The S&R Department has now completed an exhaustive review of records held by the department and proposes updates to its record management system. The proposed resolution will allow the S&R Department to manage its own records retention policy notwithstanding any contrary general provisions of the Records Management Policies and Procedures Manual.

The Sustainability & Resilience Department coordinated the proposed amendments with the City Clerk and City Attorney’s Office. The retention periods are consistent with best record management practice and applicable law. Further, by adoption of the proposed resolution, the Council will be authorizing retention and destruction of records in Agenda Item No. 7

In most cases, encumbrance balances exist at year-end. These encumbrance balances are obligations of each fund and must be reported at the beginning of each fiscal year. In addition, a corresponding appropriations entry must be made in order to accommodate the 'carried-over' encumbrance amount. Most differences between budgeted annual revenues and expenses are due to these encumbrance carryovers.

Therefore, as long as the department as a whole is within budget, budgetary compliance has been achieved. The City actively monitors the budget status of each department and takes measures to address potential over budget situations before they occur.

For Enterprise and Internal Service Funds, the level of budgetary control is at the fund level. The City also monitors and addresses these fund types for potential over budget situations.
