Fee For Service

While I'm not entirely against efforts to make people pay for the actual costs of driving, I think the problems with limiting the free provision of all local public services to locals only are rather obvious.


HUNTINGTON BEACH - Nonresidents who cause car accidents will now be billed for emergency response services, which may cost upwards of $3,000 depending on the accident.

City Council members at their meeting Monday approved a cost recovery program for emergency services including car accidents, car fires and pipeline and power line damage.
