MEMORANDUM
March 31, 2000
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ALAN TAN D~?~ ~NAG~R
SUBJECT: GENERAL INFORMATION
1. The mayors and city managers representing Kern County cities met Thursday with
League of California Cities Executive Director Chris McKenzie to discuss proposals
currently being reviewed at the state level regarding local government fiscal reform.
Vice Mayor Irma Carson attended on behalf of the Mayor and Assistant City Manager,
John Stinson also attended. Attached is a chart which shows a comparison of the
State/Local reform proposals and other materials on this issue. Some of the
proposals involve a shift of sales taxes for property taxes or distribution of all or part
of sales taxes by population, rather than situs (where tax is generated). Any change
from the current situs distribution would have significant adverse financial impact on
our city's revenues and ability to provide needed services. This will be an evolving
issue that staff will monitor with the Kern County Association of Cities and the
League.
2. A copy of the Mayor's letter to the Board of Supervisors and the resolution adopted
on March 29th concerning the proposed Borba Dairies is enclosed.
3. The Chief of Police received the enclosed statistics on Crimes Reported for Selected
California Jurisdictions from the Attorney General. According to the California Crime
Index, Bakersfield had a decrease of 15.6% in violent crimes and a 16.9% decrease
in property crimes.
4. The citizen survey will begin within the next week. Approximately 700 households,
randomly selected, will be contacted by telephone. Please contact Assistant City
Manager Alan Christensen if you have any questions or concerns.
5. An update on our negotiations with the Kern County Waste Management Department
regarding commercial refuse disposal fees is enclosed for your information.
6. A response to a Council request is enclosed:
Couch - Provide comments regarding clothes washer efficiency standards.

To All Kern County Cities, City Managers and Mayors:
As per my recent phone conversation with your city, the League of Cities Fiscal Reform Task Force has
had five (5) meetings over the past several months to come up with a proposed change in the revenue
sOurces and amounts for local government (cities, counties and special districts). This is very important
to all cities since this will determine your future income/revenue from the state. Several groups,
assemblymen, senators and the California State Association of Counties (CSAC) have proposals and bills
before the legislature and governor and as yet the cities are still in the talking stage.
I have scheduled a Kern County Association Cities (KCAC) meeting for Thursday, March 30, 2000, at
12:00 PM at the Hill House, 700 Truxtun Avenue, Bakersfield. I have asked Chris McKenzie, Executive
Director of the League, to address the association on these fiscal reform proposals.
So that each city may evaluate their position with what the League is proposing, I am enclosing a Fiscal
Impact Proposal by Michael Coleman, a consultant to the League. Included is a survey form, which I
encourage you to complete and send to the League (attn: Michael Coleman, fax (530) 758-3952). Also
incI~ded is an article by Chris McKenzie on Fiscal Reform and a chart on two (2) allocation property shift
relief proposals for $1.8 billion dollars refund to Kern cities for ERAF.
I encourage you to complete the survey form and hopefully Chris McKenzie will have the results so that
you can see if you will be a winner or loser under the Leagues' formula.
Please let Jeanette Kelley, City Clerk (661) 822-2200 ext. 104, know how many will attend the lunch so
we can leave proper reservations. Please contact me if you have any questions or other matters to discuss.
There will be other agenda items. Thank you.
Sincerely,
JOHN H.E. ROMBOUTS
Mayor of the City of Tehachapi and
President of KCAC

TO: FISCAL REFORM TASK FOR(~E OF THE LF.,AGUE
VROM: MICHAEl. COLEMAN th .L J "
SUBJECT: FISCAL IMPACTS OF 1) 'l"flE PROPOSAL OF THE SPEAKER S
COMMISSION ON STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT FINANCE, AND
2) THE TASK FORCE'S PROSPECTIVE REFORM CONCEPT.
DATE: 3/7/2000
cc: Chris McKenzie, Dwight Stenbakken, David Jones, Dan Carrig, Megan Taylor
I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In my previous reports to the Task Force I outlined the fiscal refon'n proposal of the Speaker's
Commission and the Prospective Reform Concept proposed by members of the Task Force. In
addition to describing how these proposals would work, I provided an overview of the kinds of
fiscal impacts they might produce. I also provided initial (first and second year) fiscal impact
estimates based on broadly generalized economic assumprions. Of course, economic trends and
conditions vary from locale to locale, and these variations will be the determinants in how the
proposals affect city budgets.
For this analysis I developed a ftnandal model for each proposal and surveyed twenty (20) dries for
spedfic financial data and fiscal and land use projections. I ran each of the respondent's data
through the model to produce fiscal impact est/mates of each proposal specific to each city. The
results largely confirm the general conclusions about fiscal impact which the Task Force has
discussed. But they show the diversity of situations and the diversity of impacts on dries.
In summary, my analysis shows:
A. The fiscal impact of the swap depends on the city's relative future growth of property
tax revenue venus sales tax revenue. Cities with future property tax revenue growth to
surpass future sales tax growth will gain from the swap. For those forecasting stronger growth
in dry sales tax revenue than in city property tax revenue, the impact of the swap is negative. In
some cities, the property tax remm more than makes up for the loss under the swap.
1. Cities with substantial redevelopment programs are less F~kely to benefit from
the swap because redevelopment dampens dry property tax revenue growth.
2. Cities whose future land use development is dominated by new sales tax
generators are likely to be worse off under the swap proposal.
a. However, retail land uses would still provide more city tax revenue than the
added city service costs they create.

b. In some of these cities that expect substantial taxable sales growth from new
development, the lost sales tax revenue under the swap is offset by net gains in
existin~ areas of the city.
B. Cities that are already especially dependent upon sales tax revenues may be more
likely to benefit from the swap. Cities with comparatively ki§h sales tax per capita revenues
may have less potential for developing new taxable sales generators than other growing
communities. In addition, the swap has the 'benefit of providing more diversity and stability to
these city's revenue bases.
C, The Speaker's CommiSsion's sales tax for property tax swap is a good deal for most
built-out cities. Because the swap under the Prospective Reform Concept applies only to new
development, it has no direct effect on built-out cities.
D. Cities with mixed residential/commercial growth futures are better off under the
sales tax for property tax swap unless they expect to attract new regional-ckaw sales tax
generators.
E. The sales tax for property tax swap will reduce financial distortions at the root of the
"fiscalization of land use" problem... Somewhat.
F. Substantial property tax return to local government is necessary to address the
"fiscMiv. ation of land use'" problem.
II. GOALS OF REFORM
While this evaluation looks at the fiscal implications of reform proposals, for a full and fair appraisal
one should consider each proposal in light of the overall goals of local government fiscal reform.
A. Fiscal Reform Task Force of the League of California Cities
· Promote local discretion over revenues.
Match local government revenue with responsibility and accountability to the local
electorate.
· Provide constitutional protection and stability for revenues of all cities and promote
California's long-term economic growth,
· Avoid harmful effects on individual local governmental units and state government service
delivery obligations and programs.
· Enforce the prohibition against unfunded mandates.
B. Others
1. Speaker's Commission on State and Local Finance, The Speaker's Commission begins
its recommendations with the following "guiding concepts:"
03/2~/00 TUE ~5:52 FAX ~05 $22 $559 CITY OF TEHACHAP [~007
Fiscal Reform Task Force - 3 - March 7, 2000
1) The local finance system should facilitate balanced, state, regional and local conservation and
development policies as well as finance local and regional services.
2) In order to avoid dependence on one revenue source, local governments should derive thei~
revenues form a diversity of sources, including property tax, sales tax and general purpose
state subventions.
3) The finance base for local and regional services should be a constitutionally protected, stable
and reliable and be sufficient to assure basic services.
_4_) Increase the transparency of state and local government.
2. Legislative Analyst's Office. On February 3, the Legislative Analyst's Office (LAO)~
released a report "Reconsidering ABS: Exploring Alternative IVays to Allocate Proper/2/Taxes." The
report offers five alternatives to improve local finance. While property tax reform is at the
heart of these alternatives, they suggest much broader changes to local government finance.
The LAO identify the following existing problems related to local finance and the property
tax allocation in particular:
¢* Lack of information impedes government accountabLlity to taxpayers
· /'Lack of local control
o No (local) ability to raise or lower property tax shares.
o System susceptible to state-controlled revenue shifts.
o Inability to shift revenues among priorities.
ff Skewed development incentives
o Fiscal incentives encourage retail over other uses.
o Fiscal incentives encourage the proliferation and misuse of redevelopment.
· / Assessment practices act as a barrier to new businesses
,/ Reliance upon non-deductible taxes to finance government services.
ff Competition for resources results in inefficient intergovernmental program
coordination.
III. FISCAL IMPACT ANALYSIS
This report provides results and discussion of my analysis of three proposals for restruct-u~g local
finance. The purpose of this analysis is to investigate:
o How would the proposal affect the finances of ifidividual cities?
o How would the proposal affect the ability of future land use development to provide
sufficient ~evenues to cover municipal service costs?
A. Methodology
Pursuant to the direction of the Task Force, this analysis consists of two exercises: 1) an
examination of fiscal impact analyses of proposed development projects ("project analysis"), and 2)
The LAO is a non-[aarfsan office which provides fiscal and policy information and advice to the legislature
· 037~21/00 TEE 15:52 FAX 805 822 8559 CITY OF TEHACHAP {~008
Fiscal Reform Task Force - 4 - March 7, 2000
an analysis of the fiscal impact on a variety of individual ciries using local fiscal and land use
development estimates ("city fiscal survey").
1. PV°ject Analysis (Exln~olt 4)
I gathered fiscal analyses of planned land use developments from several economic consulting
firms. I reviewed and summarized the results of these data. Next I altered the revenue figures
in the analyses to reflect the changes that would occur under the reform proposals. These
changes include reductions in the Bradley Burns local sales tax rate, increases in the property tax
share and additional property tax revenue from a property tax return. The numeric results of
this analysis ate summarized in Exhibit 4.0.
2. City Fiscal Survey (Exhibits 1-3)
I sent information requests to more than thLrty (30) dries. Twenty (20) cities 'responded with
fiscal and land use planning statistics including past and projected tax revenues, assessed
valuation, population and housing units, using the survey form I supplied (see Exhibit 1.0). I
constructed fiscal models of the reform proposals and entered each city's information. The
draft results produced by the model were returned back to each city with my observations. The
models and results revealed anomalies in some of the data provided by the city finance directors
and in the models themselves. Some of the mathematical formulas in the models were
corrected and, in several cases, city finance directors chose to change their financial projections.
While the dries in this analysis represent a broad variety of circumstances, a non-random survey
of just twenty titles can by no means be considered a statistical sample. Consequently, these
results suggest that similarly situated cieies will be affected similarly, but they do not necessarily
reflect the proportional impact on all 474 cities. The numeric results of this analysis are
summarized in Exhibit 4.0.
B. The Proposals
1. The Speaker's Commission Proposal: a) swap a portion of the locally levied sales tax for
an equivalent amount of the property tax, b) increase the amount of discretionary revenue (by
$1 billion) for countT, vide and other local government services.
(a) The "Swap"
Within each county, the county and each city would Swap a portion of the locally levied sales tax for an
equal amount of the property tax. The locally levied 1% sales ta~ rate would be reduced to .5% and the
state rate would be raised by .5%. An equal amount of property tax would be shifted from either school
or community college dist. dcts. The state, using the new revenue from the .5% of the sales tax, would
backfill the school or community college disu:icts through the state aid system.
The property tax allocation for each city and county would work as follows:
03~'21/00 TUE 15:53 FAX 805 822 8559 CITY OF TEHACHAP [~009
Fiscal Reform Task Force - 5 - March 7, 2000
(i) The 1°/~ property tax is cu~ently levied countywide and alloCated to agencies within the
county by statute. Under this proposal the county and each city would be allocated the amount of
property tax it received in the prior year, augmented with the amount of the sales tax that it lost. This
action would have the effect of changing each city and county's share of the property tax since the
relative shares of the propen'y tax among the jurisdictions receiving the tax would change. The city
or county share would go up and the school and/or community college districts' share would go
down.
(ii) Each year thereafter, the city and the county would receive the amount they received in the
prior year (the adjustment for the sales tax swap is now in the base property tax) plus a share of the
property tax that is attributable to the growth in assessed value within their ju~sdiction. This share
would be based on the new, increased base amount of the agency relative to that of other taxing
agencies in theix juxisdictior~
(iii) The property tax would be shifted from either K-12 school districts or community college
districts. The reduction in property tax going to these districts would be replaced with an equivalent
amount in state aid. Within each county the K-12 school share of the property tax would be
allocated on a per student basis. The "basic aid" districts (those school dis~cts that receive a minor
amount of state aid and receive most of their funding from the property tax) would be held harmless
for the change from a situs based property t~x to one where the schools' share of the countywide
property tax is distributed on a per student basis to school districts within the county.
(b) Settlement for the 1992-93 and 1993-94 Property Tax Shift.
Remm $1 billion of property taxes to counties, ciries and spedal districts from the Educational Revenue
Augmentat{on Fund (ERAF) in each county or other State sources over time in annual installments of
not less than $100 million, provided that the growth in any year of per capita non-proposition 98 general
fund revenue exceeds the statewide consumer price index for the prior year.
(Source: Speakff s Commission on State and Local Finance)
Note: the Speaker's Commission does not provide a specific recommendation as to how this
property tax return should be allocated. This analysis assumes an allocation formula mirroring
' AB1661 of 1999.
2. The Prospective Reform Concept: a) provide an increased allocation of property taxes to
cities counties and special districts, b) change the apportionment of sales and property tax
revenues from new development only.
Sales tax and property tax will be allocated differently for tax revenues from development that
occurs after a date certain (e.g. July 1, 2002). The apportionments of tax revenues (including
those from revenue growth) on existing properties developed and operating before the date
certain would not change.
The design of these new apportionments would be similar to the proposal of the Speaker's
Commission on State and Local Finance (a "swap" of sales and property tax allocations) but
would apply to new development only - and would not involve a hold-harmless base year. Local
governments would be "held harmless" on existing revenues by retaining existing tax
03~21/00 T[~ 15:54 FAX 805 822 8559 CITY OF TEHACHAP [~010
Fiscal Reform Task Force - 6 - March 7, 2000
apportionments on previously developed property. The Bradley Burns local sales tax would be
reduced with a commensurate increase in the state sales tax rate (the total rate to the taxpayer
remakfing the same). Property tax apportionments to cities (and county rates' in
unincorporated areas) would be substantially increased such that the new development would
provide adequate revenues to provide local public services to the development Coc it housing,
office, industrial, retail, etc.). ~
IV. FINDINGS
The detailed tables in the attached exhibits provide the specific numeric assumptions and outcomes
of the analyses. From some careful review, I have drawn the following general conclusions from
the data to try to illustrate how the reform proposals affect specific city finances and the reasons
these results may vary among cities.
The sales_tax-for-property-tax-swap is the most complex aspect of each proposal. In contrast, the
property tax return aspect of each proposal is straightforward as to implementation, fiscal effect,
and implications.
3,. The Fiscal Impact Of The Swap Depends On The City's Relative Futttre Growth Of
Property Tax Revenue Versus Sales Tax Revenue.
As I have indicated in early reports to the Task Force, the fiscal effect on a particular city of the
sales_tax-for-property-tax-swap depends on the relative future growth of property tax versus sales
tax revenue· Historical patterns and economic trends suggest that California local governments on
the whole will be better off with more property tax and less sales tax.

to match or surpass future sales tax growth. These cities show net gain or break even results from
the swap. [See Exhibit 2.0 Summary of Assumptions, Impacts and Profiles of Survey Cities]
Lakewood, La Mixada, Mission Viejo and Signal Hill are each forecasting stronger growth in
city sales tax revenue than in city property tax revenue. [See Exhibit 2.0] Consequently, the impact
of the swap is negative for these cities. However, in La Mitada and Mission Viejo, the ERAF
property tax return aspect of the proposal provides each of these cities with more than enough
revenue to cushion the loss. In Lakewood, the property tax remm provides a net gain of almost $1
million in the first year, but this gain declines rapidly over time as the 3.5% annual growth in this
property tax revenue looses ground to the loss of sales tax revenue that grows at an average of
more than over 9% per year.
The primary factors that contribute to a city having higher sales tax than property tax revenue
growth are 1) a large proportion of the city in redevelopment, and 2) future land use development
that is dominated by a high mount of taxable sales generators.

1. d]~r,~l~r.~: Cities With Substantial Redevelopment Programs A~e Less Likely
To Benefit From The Swap;
Redevelopment is largely financed by property tax increment chat accrues within a proiect area.
Redevelopment has the effect of limiting the growth of property tax revenues to the taxing
agencies chat serve the redevelopment area. Thus, the l~ger a redevelopment area, the more
significant its drag on a local agency's proper~y tax revenue.
AIl but one of the survey cities have redevelopment agencies. In five cities, redevelopment
areas encompass more than a third of the city. In Signal Hill, nearly two thirds of the city is
in redevelopment -among the largest proportions in the state.2 This is a significant reason
behind this city's relatively Iow general fund property tax growth forecast of just 2% per year.
Redevelopment agencies collect 8% of property tax revenues in California. But unlike other local
governments, redevelopment agencies gather their property tax revenues from the "tax increment"
or growth in property tax revenue that occurs within their jurisdiction. Absent the redevelopment
agency, this tax increment would be apportioned among the taxing agencies serving the area.

This public financing mechanism is unique to redevelopment and it creates some special
considerations when we consider changes to the property tax system, such as the sales tax for

Still, dudng the late 1980s, Signal Hill's property tax revenue grew by an average of 8% per year.

,The Effect Of The Swap Proposal On Redevelopment Agency Revenues
The speaker's commission proposes to swap the allocation of sales tax and property tax revenues
among governments, but it would not alter the tax rate- Redevelopment revenues come from the tax
increment or growth in tax revenue that occurs within an area. Absent the redevdopment area, the
revenUes would be allocated according to apportionment shares. Generally, shifting these shares (i.e.,
reducing the school/state share with an equivalent increase in the city share) will not affect the
amount of tax increment going to the redevelopment agency. However, in some redevelopment
areas, inter-agency agreements provide for spedal arrangements, most commonly "pass-throughs."
Cities and redevelopment agendes will need to examine these agreements to determine any
unwelcome fiscal impacts.
A few redevelopment agencies receive sales tax revenue under sales & use tax sharing agreements.
In 1996-97, redevelopment agencies received $24 million in sales & use tax revenue. Depending on
the terms of each agreement, the reduction in Bradley Burns sales & use tax from the swap may
affect these revenues. These agencies would need to examine the agreements and the financial
implications and consider amendments. However, in most cases the city will have approximately the
same (or more) total fiscal resources with w}fich to support its redevelopment agency.
The Effect Of The Swap Pr.oposal On Other Taxing Entities
The presence of a redevelopment area will affect city and state finances under the swap proposal.
Where a redevelopment agency exists, property tax revenue growth is diverted, but not (generally)
sales & use tax revenues, These dries will pick up greater burdens (pay more of the tax increment)
for their redevelopment agencies and the schools serving the area will pay that much less. The total
amount of increment going to the redevelopment agency will not change.
More Property Tax to Cities Means Mote Redevelopment Tax Increment Comes
From Cities
With a greater share of property tax revenue comes a greater share of tax increment going to
redevelopment areas. In the short-mn, some dries with substantial redevelopment agencies and
substantial sales tax bases may see lower general fund revenue growth as a result. This is primarily
because they will contribute additional property tax increment to their redevelopment agencie,
However, when these agencies close, these cities will be better off than under the status quiz
An Example.
The. City of Durham received $2000 in sales & use tax last year. Next year that
revenue source is proiected to grow 4% and so it would receive $80 in growth. But
the Speaker's Commission proposal would shift half this tax base ($1000 dollar for
dollar) for property tax share. So the dry would get just $40 in sales & use tax
growth (4% on the remaining $1000).
On the 19rol~ertv tax side. the City of Durb. um received $400 last year. Assessed

Fiscal Reform Task Force - 9 - March 7, 2000
revenues for the City would grow $84 but because half this goes to the
redevelopment agency, it will get just $42.
The net result is that the City will see $10 less revenue under the Speakcffs proposal.
But in the absence of the redevelopment agency it would have received $20 more and
when the RDA completes its work and closes, the dty's larger share will have it
finandally better off than under the current arrangement. This assumes that, in the
future, property values in the city will grow faster than taxable sales.

Less Property Tax to Schools Means Less Tax Increment Comes From Schools
Redevelopment has had tb.e effect of depressing the growth in property tax revenue for schools (as
well as dries, counties and spedal districts) by capturing this revenue growth. Just as the swap of
sales tax for property tax will mean a slower growing revenue base for some does, it may mean a
faster growing revenue base for some schools (state sales tax/ general fund versus local property
tax). california's taxable real property is a more robust and steady revenue base than taxable sales,
historically and in the future. But the growth of property tax revenue to some local governments
(mduding dries, counties, special districts and school districts) has been slowed by the presence of
redevelopment. The. swap relieves schools of the some of the revenue dampening effects of
redevelopmerm
An Incentive To Complete Redevelopment ~
· . One of the negadve effects of the property tax shifts of the 1990s has been to reduce the incenfve
for dries to close out their redevelopment agendes - by reducing their property tax shares and
thereby the revenue boosts they will receive after the dosure. Increasing dty shares of the property
tax gives cities a greater incentive to succeed with their redevelopment efforts, boosting property
values in the process and then complete and close their agencies} reaping the benefits in healthier tax
reverlucs.

2. ~lew Developm~ent Dominated By Sales Tax Generator~: Cities Whose Future Land
Use Development Is Dominated By New Sales Tax Generators Axe Likely To Be Worse
Off Under The Swap Proposal
This is, of course, consistent with the policy goals of the Speakers Commission to "facilitate
balanced, state, regional and local conservation and development policies."
The City of Lakewood expects major new sales tax generating commercial centers to open in
the next few years, boosting their taxable sales by 33% over the next three years. These
developments are all located in the city's redevelopment agency. Consequently, the property tax
growth from them accrues to the redevelopment agency, not the city general fund. For this city
swapping, a "swap" of sales tax for property tax is a one sided deal: they loose future sales tax
but can expect no future property tax in return - until the redevelopment agency closes.
But even ff such retail development will occur outside a redevelopment agency, the city would
gain much more tax revenue under the current system. Mission Viejo is currently experiencing
:a major boom in retail sales generating development including the renaissance of its high-end
mall, new car dealerships, and new "big box" retailers. About half of this new development is in
the city's redevelopment area.
a. However, Retail Land Uses Would Still Provide More City Tax Revenue Than
The Added City Service Costs They Create.
In cities such as Mission Viejo and Lakewood with plans for substantial retail
development, the city would receive less net revenue (new revenue minus new service costs)
than under the current system. However, even under the Speaker's Commission proposal,
new city revenues from the land use development would still more than pay for the added
city service costs. This effect can be seen in the "Project Fiscal Impact Analyses." The
original consultant fiscal analyses of projects that are dominated by sales tax generators
show substantial net revenue to the dry. Under a sales tax for property tax swap (as
proposed by the Speaker's Commission), these projects would still produce substanfi,lly
more new city revenue than new city costs - even before factoring in the $1 billion property
tax return included in the Speaker's Commission proposal.
According to the original consultant study, the Coven Business Park in Davis would
generate about $20,000 net revenue to the city in Year 8, My analysis shows that the
Speaker's Commission swap would reduce this net gain to about $10,000 in that year. The
Commission's proposed property tax return would add about $8,000 per year for a net gain
of $18,000. Under the Prospective Reform Concept, the larger property tax share (for this
city) and larger property tax return ($1.5 billion versus $1 billion) would produce a net gain
to the city from this project of about $29,000.

b. In Some Of These Cities That F.,xpect Subs~nlial Taxable Sales G~owth From
New Development, The Lost Sales Tax Revenue Under The Swap Is Offset By Net
Gains In Existi~ Areas Of The City.
The negative effects on these cities may be mitigated by net positive revenue effects in
existing development. That is, stronger property tax revenue growth versus sales tax growth
within exiting development may exceed n.et revenue losses in new development.
In Turlock, a retail proiect expected to open in August 2000 will provide a substantial boost
to city sales tax revenues. The Speaker's Commission swap (theoretically implemented July
1, 2000 for the purpose of this analysis) would result in about $150,000 less net revenue to
the city from the new development in 2000-2001. But this loss would be offset by from
gains in already developed areas ~of the city where the swap would produce a net gain of
more than $190,000 due to stronger property tax revenue growth than sales tax growth.
In Laguna Niguel, new development would return $50,0000 to $150,000 less net revenue
to the city per year unde~ the Speaker's Commission swap. Even though the city has no
redevelopment agency, the higher property tax share under the swap doesn't make up for
the reduced sales tax revenue from commerdal portions of ~the development. However,
stronger grovcth in property tax than sales tax revenues in the existing areas of the city
more than exceeds this loss. As a result the City of Laguna Niguel would be financially
better-off overall unde~ the Commission's p~oposal.
In Santa Barbara, the fiscal impact of the swap on new development is insignificant, but in
. existing development, the swap results in substantial net gains.
B. Cities With Mixed Residential/Commercial Growth Futures Are Better Off Under The
Sales-Tax-for-Property-Tax-Swap Unless They Expect To Attract New Regional-Draw Sales
Tax Generators.
Several of the survey cities are forecasting substantial growth in the coming decade. For most of
these communities, a sales tax for property tax swap provides the city with a substantial net gain in
revenues over the current system. For example, the rifles of I,ivermore, Novato, Tracy and
Turlock each anticipate annual population growth of 3% to 5% during the next five years. The
swap reduces net gain from taxable sales generators because the additional p~operty tax share can't
make up for the reduced sales tax revenue. But revenues from residential, office and industrial
development will improve. Consequently, the swap would help cities that are building housing to
cover the additional service costs of the development. However, my analyses of the proiect fiscal
evaluations indicates that in some cases, this future development still might not provide sufficient
local government revenues to cover the additional service demands it creates.

Fiscal Reform Task Force - 12 - March 7, 2000
C. The Speaker's Commlssion's Sales Tax for Property Tax Swap is a Good' Deal for Most
Built-Out Cities.
Many of the survey cities, including Bellflower, Daly City, Glendale, San Carlos, San Mateo,
Santa Barbara, Santa Fe Spfings~ and Sunnyvale predict no significant land use development of
any kind in the next five years. These "built-out" cities generally predict steadier, stronger growth in
property tax revenue than sales tax revenue.. These projections are consistent with statewide
historical revenue trends, the eminent economic rebound of property tax revenues and the
increasingly negadve impacts of e-commerce on taxable sales. These built-out cifes are better off
under the Speaker's Commission swap. Because the Prospective Reform Concept applies only
to new development, it has no direct effect on built-out cities.
D. Cities That Ate Already Especially Dependent Upon Sales Tax Revenues Axe Likely To
Benefit From The Swap.
These cities are particularly vulnerable to the volatlity and economic sluggishness in the brick and
mortar retail sector. Moreover, cities with comparatively high sales tax per capita revenues may have
less potential for developing new taxable sales generators than other growing commu, v2ties. For
these cites, the future of sales tax growth is much more dubious than their historical experience.
Twelve (12) of the twenty (20) survey cities have substantially higher than average per capita sales
tax revenues. Nine (9) of these twelve (12) cities predict property tax revenue growth to on, ace
sales tax revenue growth. For these cities, a dollar for dollar swap of sales tax for property tax is a
good deal in the long nm.
For cites that are highly sales tax dependent, the swap has the additonal benefit of providing more
diversity to these city's revenue base. With a better balance between property tax and sales tax
revenues, the two highest sources of general fund revenue, these communities axe less vulnerable to
economic fluctuations and the long term economic stability of their overall revenue base is
improved.
E. The Sales-Tax-for-Propetty-Tax-Swap Reduce Financial Distortions at the Root of the
"Fiscalization of Land Use" Problem... Somewhat.
Both the Speaker's Commission proposal and the Prospective Reform Concept increase municipal
revenues from residential, office and industrial land uses which in many cases do not generate
sufficient local government revenues to pay for municipal service demands they create. In addition
each proposal reduces (but would not eliminate) the substantial surplus municipal revenue that
taxable sales generating land uses contribute in excess of municipal service costs. Both the swap
and property tax return aspects of the proposals contribute to th.is effect. However, while the
proposals are a step in the "fight direction," the basic dynamics of the fiscalization problem will
· ' ' its wa in some areas without
remain: 1) residential and mixed use development still won t pay y
additional fees/taxes or municipal service cuts, and 2) sales tax generating land uses will still provide
substantially more revenue than costs to cities and counties.

Fiscal Re£o£m Task Force - 13 - Maxch 7, 2000
Six of the nine proiect fiscal analyses I reviewed involve mixed use including a substantial number
of residential units, support commercial, office, and industrial. Three of-these, six analyses (4.1
Ceres Eastgate, 4.2 Davis General Plan Update (GPU), and 4.3 I-Iollistet GPU) show a deficit
of additional city revenues compared to additional city costs from the development. In each of
these cases, the reform proposals increase the city's revenues and reduce the deficit, but the proiects
remain in deficit. In the other three of the six residential proiects (4.40xnard Mandalay Bay, 4.5
North Livermore, and 4.6 Loomis GPU), the total development proposal provided sufficient
new revenue to the city - primarily due to better local economic conditions.
One of the analyses, 4.7 Grass Valley Loma Rica, is a mixed use proiect dominated by office use.
The original fiscal analysis shows the proiect in deficit - not enough new revenues to cover the new
city costs. My analysis shows that a sales-tax-for-property-tax swap will improve the revenues but
the ptoiect still remains in deficit.
The other two largely commercial developments (4.8 Davis Covell Business Park, and 4.9 Gross
Valley Kenny. Ranch) xvould provide substantial net revenue to their cities due to substantial sales
tax revenue. In these cases, the swap components of the reform proposals would reduce the total
revenue generated by the proiect for the city. However, each proiect would continue to provide
excess revenues over costs even without the E1ChF property tax return.
F. Substantial Property Tax Return to Local Government is Necessary to Address the
Fiscalization of Land Use Problem.
The Project Impact Analyses reveal that return of property tax revenue is essential to mitigating the
disparity between the incremental munidpal service costs and revenues of various kinds of
development - the root of the "fiscalization of land use" problem. Property tax return further
improves the ability of residential, office and industrial land uses to pay its way in all parts of the
state. However, the analysis indicates that even with a swap and a $1.5 billion property tax return
combined, some growth and development will remain in fiscal deficit for local government.
¥. ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
A. The Economic Stability Of City Finances Would Be Improved By A Sales-Tax-For-
Property-Tax-Swap And A Property Tax Return, But The Political Stability Of City Finance
Requites Constitutional Protection and Mandate Reform_.
Two important factors affect the stability of local government finances: 1) economic vulnerability
and 2) political vulnerability from other governmental units and the voters. This analysis examines
the effects of the Speaker's Commission proposal and the Prospective Reform Concept on city
finances - and indicates that either proposal would improve the economic stability of most cities'
~'lan. ces.
03'/21/00 TUE 16:02 FAX 805 822 8559 CITY OF TEHACItAP [~018
Fiscal Reform Task Force - 14 - March 7, 2000
But the most significant factor in the instability of city finance in California is the lack of local
control over revenue allocations and rates.. A restructuring of city finance will be of 'little
effectiveness to our constituents if the state continues to beset cities with mandates, revenue
earmarking, and the taking of local revenues. Current state subventions to local government should
have their use restrictions lifted in favor of discretionary revenue for local government. Cities must
have constitutional protection and mandate reform. As the Task Force has expressed, these are
essential components of any meaningful reform..
B. To Really Improve City Finance We Must 1) Provide Counties and Special Districts With
Adequate Revenues to Provide Local Services, and 2) Provide Cities With Greater Authority
to Determine the Allocation of Resources Among Municipal Services.
1. Provide Counties And Special Districts With Adequate Revenues To Provide Local
Services
Cities cannot make decisions about substantial growth and development without dealing with
the county and with special districts that serve the area. In land use decisions involving
annexation, the city must not only deal with the fiscal impacts on the city - but also on other
local governments. Tax sharing agreements between cities and counties are common today.
These result from negotiations between a city and a county where a sharing of revenues is
needed to help an agency provide services to the new development. Clearly, local governments
are inextricably linked to each other's fiscal woes. If counties continue to be inadequately
funded, they will continue to balk at new development and insist on revenue concessions from
cities. As this analysis indicates, the current system makes many cities unable to respond.
For example, the fiscal analysis completed by Economic Planning Systems in Hollister also
looked at the fiscal impact of the future development on San Benito County. Between the
'City and the County there simply were not enough revenues from the new de/relopment to
cover the combined costs of the city and the county. Absent substantial service cuts, a tax
increase, a regional sales tax generator, or fiscal reform, no tax sharing agreement could make
this development financially viable.
The financial condition of cities will be improved if we address the fiscal problems of our
counties and special districts. It is certainly in the best interests of out common constituents.
The fiscalization of land use problem can't simply be addressed by changing the allocation of
city sales tax. City, county and special districts must have additional permanent ongoing
discretionary revenue, including property tax. Moreover, this revenue must be allocated among
all localgovernment agendes such that revenue more closely matches the service costs from various
activities and land uses,
On its own, the "swap" does nothing to address the fiscal problems of counties and special
districts'~. Full, ongoing and protected property tax return is critical to addressing these issues.
~ The "swap" would be applied to counties in unincorporated areas. But it doesn't improve their revenues from
incorporated areas and it is insufficient on its own to address the fiscal deficits, many counties face with annexation and
incorporation proposals.

2. Provide Cities With Greater Authority To Detertnine The Allocation Of Resources
Among Municipal Services.
If we want meaningful reform of the property tax system for cities, we cannot escape the
problem of fragmented governance and finance. Every elected city council should have the
authority to determine the best allocation of resources among municipal services including
police, fire, library, streets, and parks & recreation - and to decide the best way to provide the
service, whether with city staff or under contract to another agency. Cities will be better able
to:
o Re-allocate resources in later years as the community changes, as new challenges arise, and as
needs and priorities change;
o Coordinate programs for efficient service delivery;
o Fund programs with revenues which are rationally related to the program;
o Ensure that their ·residents are receiving equitable service levels from independent special
districts relative to costs.
C. Bolder Reform Ideas Should Be Considered.
Since the last meeting of the League's Fiscal Reform Task Force, several new proposals for local
government finance reform have emerged. Among these are those contained in the Legislative
Analyst's report "Reconsidering ,4B8: Exploring ~4tternative IVays to A/locate Properly Taxes" and ideas
expressed by Senator Steve Peace - who is expected to be a leader on a new Joint Legislative
Committee to examine the issues and proposals for local government finance. Information on
these proposals was sent to Task Force members in February. The Task Force may wish to
consider these new ideas.

1115 Truxtun Avenue, 5th Floor
Bakersfield, CA 93301
Honorable Board Members:
On behalf of the City Council, I am sending you a copy of the resolution which the Council adopted
on March 29, 2000 regarding the Proposed Borba Dairies. The City Council respectfully requests
your serious consideration of its recommendations. The resolution recommends:
· That the County complete a county-wide plan and program environmental impact report
specific to animal confinement and feeding facilities which defines where such facilities may
be located, and identify minimum mitigation measures required, similar to the process used
by Tulare County.
· The formation of a joint special committee made up of representatives from ~both the City
and County Planning .Commissions to make suggestions for-the development of policies,
protocols, and procedures for both bodies for the review and approval of projects on the
fringe of city boundaries within the 2010 General Plan in order to balance planning issues
at the City/County interface.
· That the County of Kern take affirmative steps to facilitate the location of an alternate site
within Kern County and outside the 2010 General Plan boundaries for the Borba dairies
where the potential for incompatibility between agricultural and urban uses would not exist,
and, in that regard, offers the assistance of the City of Bakersfield in this process.
The City of Bakersfield recognizes this issue is ultimately up to the Board of Supervisors to decide.
However, the City Council has a responsibility to represent the citizens of the City of Bakersfield,
who are your constituents, and express its concerns, while providing positive recommendations for
the resolution of this issue. We also respectfully request that you give serious consideration to our
recommendations, which we believe will help avoid future planning conflicts and 'promote better
intergovernmental cooperation and joint planning between the City of Bakersfield and Kern County.
Yours truly,
Mayor.

This report includes data submitted to the Cdminal Justice Statistics Center by the cutoff date of February 29, 2000.
Counts reflect the number of actual offenses. Unfounded cdme counts are not included.
Sheriff Department counts are for unincorporated areas only and do not include contract cities.
The California Highway Patrol reports motor vehicle theft for some county sheriff's departments. Therefore, shedft's department figures for this category may not reflect all reported motor vehicle thefts.
'The FBI Crime Index total includes the California Cdme Index total, larceny-theft, and arson.
2The following agencies were unable to provide cdme counts for the entire twelve-month period in 1999; Fresno Police Department (December), and Orange Police Department (November- December). Therefore, to maintain comparability of
1999 data wi~h 1998 data, counts for ~ese agencies are shown but not included in the subtotals or total selected judedictions counts.
3Contra Costa County SherifFs Department reported that, due to a computer programing error, crime counts for contract agencies were included in the sheriff department counts for the last half of 1998. To maintain comparability of 1999 data
with 1998 data, counts are shown but not included in the subtotals or total selected jurisdiction counts.

COUNTY WASTE MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT
Staff met again with Kern County Waste Management Department on March 20, 2000,
after sending a letter requesting this topic to be agendized for the Solid Waste
Management Advisory Committee. It was clarified that the City wanted to change only
the method of paying for commercial bins and not apartment bins, since those are
charged via land use fees. Ms. Washington indicated that perhaps the City's proposed
estimate method for paying for the City portion of mixed City/County loads could be
used. She is checking with County Counsel with respect to the bin fee ordinance.

MEMORANDUM
RECEIVED
TO: Gene Bogart, Water Resources Manager ~
FROM: Patrick E. Hauptman, Water Superintendent I
SUBJECT: Response to Councilperson Couch re. Washer Efficiency Stand~¢~' MANAGEI'I'S OF;-~.L:
We have reviewed the memo and attachments received from Councilperson Couch regarding
the request from the Ozone Action group. This request is asking local elected officials to write
a letter to the Secretary of Energy asking him to support their cause in mandating changes to
clothes washer standards. They claim that these design changes would decrease water
demand, as well as decrease energy demand to supply hot water. The group claims that
drinking water supplies will be conserved, global warming will be reduced and air pollution will
be decreased. These design changes would cost the consumer an additional $125 per clothes
washer unit.
These seemingly altruistic efforts by the group are not necessarily needed in the southern San-
Joaquin Valley. We live in a closed groundwater basin. The water used in the valley remains in
the groundwater basin with the exception of evapotranspiration losses. These losses are
attributed to evaporation and plant use.
Indeed, some areas, particularly the coastal regions, lose their local water supplies and
stormwater runoff to the ocean. Saving or conserving water here in our area will not increase
the water supplies to those coastal regions.
The points concerning global warming and air pollution are questionable at best. Since these
claims are controversial, we choose not to argue the pros or cons.
Another important point to consider in these proposed design standards is the loss of liquid
wastewater needed to transport the solids in the sewer trunk lines. It may become necessary to
use additional water supplies to flush and transport the solids to the wastewater treatment
plants. This would defeat any "savings" in the group's strategy.

Re: Washer Efficiency Standards
I am writing to alert you to a decision being made in Washington DC that will affect your communities' Water supplies and
air quality and to invite you to urge the government to preserve our drinking water supplies and our environment.
The U.S. Secretary of Energy, Bill Richardson is currently considering updating the energy efficiency standards for washers.
These standards will:
Reduce water use of the average clothes washer by 50%, cutting average household water use by 10%,
· Cut projected drinking water system investments of $325 billion over the next two decades,
· Scale down water and wastewater system infrastructure investments, saving communities millions of dollars,
In addition, these new standards will cut pollution from power production - the largest source of air pollution contributing to
smog, airborne soot, mercury contamination and global wanning. Scientists agree that global warming will have serious
impacts including an increase in heat-related deaths, spread of infectious disease and property damage due to sea level rise
and severe weather.
What you can do:
The Department of Energy is currently taking public cornrnents on this issue. Please take a minute to:
.:
1. Write a letter to Secretary of Energy Bill Richardson (see attached),
2. Fill out the bottom of this form and fax it with your letter to: (202) 986-6041.

· Breaking science on how global warming impacts your community.
· Opportunities to highlight your local environmental successes locally and nationally.
· Updates on federal global wanning legislation that affects my community.

Modernizing the National Clothes Washer Standard:
Frequently Asked Questions
How do more efficient washers save energy and water?
Most of the energy needed to do laundry goes to heat water for the washer and to operate the dryer. The actual energy to run
the washer motor and controls is relatively small. So, efficient washers save energy by reducing water use and by wringing
more water out during the spin cycle to decrease dryer time. Front loaders, just like the kind in Laundromats, save water by
lifting and dropping clothes in and out ora pool of water in the bottom ora tub on its side. This metho~l greatly reduces the
amount of water relative to top loaders that must fill the tub for each wash and rinse cycle. Washers wring clothes dryer by
more careful controls and by spinning at higher speeds.
How much water do these washers save?
Washers on the market today that meet the energy efficiency improvement target reduce water use by about 50%. Since
about 20% of most households indoor water use goes to wash clothes, these washers will cut household water use by about
10% or, for the average household, about 7.000 gallons per year. Because this water drains to the wastewater system,
efficient washers reduce sewer bills or, for those households on septic tanks, loading to the tank.
What kind of washers would meet the new standard?
Washers currently on the market that would meet the new minimum efficiency standard are all front loaders such as those
marketed by Frigidaire, Maytag, GE, and Kenmore. However, a new standard does not mean all washers would be front
loading. Whirlpool has developed but not yet marketed an equally efficient top loader washer for the U.S. market and many
manufacturers sell equally efficient top-loaders in Europe and around the world.
Are more efficient washers more expensive?
Yes. According to U.S. Department of Energy analyses, washers meeting this new standard would be about $125 more
expensive to purchase than current models. But consumers rapidly recoup these savings in lower electricity~ natural gas and
water and sewer bills. How fast depends on how much laundry' a given household does and their specific energy, water and
wastewater rates. Most households will save hundreds of dollars over the life of their washer.
Do efficient washers work as well as the old style washers?
Yes. A prominent consumer products rating publication has rated a front loading design as the best washing performance
product on the market for the past two years. 'Independent analyses have confirrned that front loads perform as well or better
at washing clothes as top loaders.
Who would this help?
Everyone who buys a new clothes washer after the standard become effective. All new washers manufactured in the U.S. or
imported for the U.S. market as of the effective date of the standard would be required to be at least as efficient as the new
standard. Such standards exist for all major household appliances and the US Department of Energy revises these standards
periodically to keep them abreast of technological and market changes. The new washer standard would become effective
after 200.3.
Who is Ozone Action?

warming and ozone depletion. Among Ozone Action's recent accomplishments are The Mayor and Local Officials
Statement on Global Warming on which over 600 local officials called on the federal government to increase efforts to stop
global warming and The Business Clinmte Challenge in which prominent business leaders from Mitsubishi. Starbucks, Nike,

Sample Letter on Energy Efficient Clothes Washer Standards
Honorable Bill Richardson
Secretary of Energy
U.S. Department of Energy
1000 Independence Ave. SW
Washington, DC 20585
Dear Secretary Richardson: -
I am writing to urge you to modernize the national clothes washer efficiency standard.
Currently available and affordable modern clothes washer designs justify a new standard set
at 40% more efficient than the old standard. This standard will cut the average household's
water use by 10%, saving consumers billions of dollars, conserving limited drinking water
supplies, fighting global warming and reducing air pollution.
Local communities must contend with the need for clean and safe drinking water. All across
the country, communities are facing increased demand for and tightened regulatory
requirements for drinking water and sewer services. Drinking water system investments
alone will top $325 billion over the next two decades according to the American Water
Works Association. Energy and water efficient appliances will help delay or scale down
water and wastewater system infrastructure investments, potentially saving communities
millions of dollars.
In addition, local communities are seriously impacted by the environmental and public
health consequences of wasted energy. Power production is the largest source of air ~
pollution contributing to smog. airborne soot, mercury contamination and global warming
pollutants. Local communities do not have the resources to manage the consequences of
global warming predicted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency such as sever
weather events, the spread of infectious diseases and an increase in smog and heat related
deaths.
Local communities have worked successfully at the local level to find solutions that conserve
water, reduce air pollution and fight global warming. We cannot do this alone, ho~vever.
Setting a strong clothes washer standard now will help local communities, save consumers
money and protect our environment. Please keep rne informed of your decision in this
important matter.
Sincerely.
Your Name
