EMERGENCY GROUND TRANSPORTATION
AMBULANCE RATES.
WHEREAS, pursuant to Chapter 3.10 of the Orange Municipal Code, the City
Council has established and maintained a Master Schedule of Fees and Charges, consisting of
fees and charges for services provided by the City to persons using such services; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Chapter 3.10 of the Orange Municipal Code, the
Master Schedule of Fees and Charges has been periodically amended and revised from time
to time by the City Council, the last time being January 22, 2008, when Resolution No.
10250 was adopted by the City Council; and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds and determines that the Master Schedule
of Fees and Charges should be amended, in part, in order to reflect the true cost of services
provided by the City in connection with emergency ground transportation ambulance
services and to conform to the same rate structure recently adopted by the Board of
Supervisors of the County of Orange.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Orange as follows:
1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct.
2. The Master Schedule of Fees and Charges is hereby amended and
Attachment A to this Resolution is hereby adopted, modifying the Master Schedule of Fees
and Charges to provide for the inclusion of the amounts of the various fees for emergency
ground transportation ambulance services chargeable by the City of Orange, as more
particularly described in Attachment A.
3. The City Council finds that the fees set forth in Attachment A do not exceed
the reasonable costs of services provided by the City in connection with the provision of
emergency ground transportation ambulance services.
4. The fees listed in Attachment A shall be effective as of and including July 9,
2008.
5. If the fees set forth in this Resolution or the application thereof to any person or
circumstance is held to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid by any court of competent
jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect any other fee, charge, or rate, or application
thereof, which can be implemented without the invalid fee, charge, or rate, or application
thereof, and to this end the fees, charges and rates of this Resolution are declared to be
severable.
