Costs associated with developing a fee schedule, staff coordination of actual filming activities, etc. .. are unknown at this time. DISCUSSION: The California legislature recently approved Assembly Bill 4680 (Statham) which is designed to standardize filming permit procedures within California communities. The bill is intended to encourage filming in the state of California and to combat "runaway production. " AB 4680 provides that the California Film Commission (CFC), in conjunction with the film industry and local communities, develop a model process for granting permits (Exhibit A). Briefly, the process provides for the following: . A designee to work directly with the industry whose responsibilities shall include: ' - attracting productions to the area expediting the permit process - establishing maximum time requirements to issue permits - establishing the use of permit "riders" to accommodate minor changes in the permit - coordinating mUlti-jurisdictional filming - implementing a uniform application form - implementing a suggested fee schedule which is reasonably related to the cost of providing the service The bill also requires all cities to adopt the model filming permit process or inform the CFC in writing why it cannot. SUbsequently, staff has reviewed the model filming permit process developed by the CFC and recommends that the City Council adopt the process. ~i ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM NO. /.1) '" COPIES TO: CJ {psro -70 e RESOLUTION NO. -..
