Who owns the Sacramento Marina?The City of Sacramento owns and operates the Sacramento Marina as an enterprise fund. What is an "enterprise fund"?An enterprise fund is operated by the City of Sacramento but is required to be totally self-supporting, with no general fund or tax money involved in the operation. What is "possessory interest" and how is the value derived?A taxable possessory interest (PI) exists when anyone leases, occupies or has exclusive use of government property (examples: a space on the Cal Expo grounds, a slip at a government-owned marina, or a hangar at Executive Airport.) Since the government doesn't pay property taxes, the users are expected to pay their fair share for community services such as fire and police protection, etc. The PI value is based on the rent you or your company paid to the governmental agency involved. The PI value is not the same as rent paid for the booth or space at the facility. The bill is based on approximately 1.15% of the PI value. The PI value is determined by capitalizing (at a comparable rate) the
rent paid, less a proportionate share of the owner's expenses, over a
typical holding-period of: 2 years for Cal Expo; 4 years for Sacramento
Marina; 5 years for Executive Airport; and 5 years for Represa. What is the fee for electricity?The charge for electrical use is $10.00 per month. How do I get on the waiting list?To place your name on the waiting list, come into the Marina Office and complete a Wait List Application (pdf). There is a $15.00 non-refundable fee for each size waiting list you wish to be on. Our waiting lists are kept by size and type of berth in chronological order.
