CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION From: Shauna Clark Subject: Resolution supporting Local City Administrator �s Control & Fiscal Responsibility Dept: Act. r Date: March 25 , 1996 Synopsis of Previous Council action: Recommended motion: That the attached resolution in support of the Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act be approved and that it be presented to the San Bernardino Public Employees Association (SBPEA) . Signature Contact person: Shauna Clark Phone: 5122 Supporting data attached: Ward: FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: Amount: Source: (Acct. No.) (Acct. Description) Finance: Council Notes: _ 96 75-0262 Agenda Item No. Both Councilman Oberhelman and Councilman Devlin have requested that a resolution supporting the Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act be placed on the Council agenda. Mayor Minor has also expressed support for this initiative. In 1992-93 and 1993-94, the state transferred approximately $3. 5 billion in property tax revenue from cities, counties, and special districts to the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF) . These shifted funds were used to raise the level funding for local schools and community colleges. However, the loss of these funds has had a devastating impact on all local governments, including the City of San Bernardino. The Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act seeks to restore some of the funds lost by local governments. According to the Attorney General, the Act would continue tax rates of 10% and 11% on residents with taxable income over $100, 000 and $200, 000, respectively; and residents who are heads of households with taxable income over $136, 115 and $272, 230, respectively. Of these additional funds raised, up to 60% would be allocated to schools. The remainder would be apportioned to counties, who would in turn allocate these funds to cities in proportion to each city's ERAF transfer. In addition, the initiative would prohibit any future reduction of each local jurisdiction's share of property tax revenue. According to the San Bernardino Public Employee's Association, the City could expect to receive up to $455, 600 in additional revenue if the Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act is passed. Currently, supporters are gathering signatures to place the initiative on the November ballot. It is recommended that: 1) The Mayor and Council approve the attached resolution supporting the Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act, and that said resolution be presented to the San Bernardino Public Employee's Association (SBPEA) . RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR & COMMON COUNCIL IN SUPPORT OF LOCAL CONTROL AND FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY ACT WHEREAS, the citizens of the City of San Bernardino have the right to expect their property taxes to be controlled locally and spent for local services they need; and WHEREAS, the citizens of the City of San Bernardino have seen that right eroded by the property tax shift from local government to state government over the last several years; and WHEREAS, the loss of local property tax revenue has severely hampered the ability of the City of San Bernardino to provide public safety, recreation, library, emergency and other services to meet the needs of its citizens; and WHEREAS, the Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act will reform the income tax law to prevent an unnecessary windfall to a small minority of taxpayers and restore a major portion of property tax losses experienced in the past; and WHEREAS, the Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act will provide an estimated $450,000 in additional revenue to assist the City of San Bernardino in its efforts to provide necessary services to its citizens; and WHEREAS, the Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act will restore local control and responsibility to local elected officials and will improve the economic conditions in the City of San Bernardino through the establishment and maintenance of desirable public services. NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved that the City of San Bernardino hereby endorses and supports qualifications and passage of the "Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act." Dated this 1st day of April, 1996. EDDIE V. NEGRETE TOM MINOR JERRY M. DEVLIN Councilman, First Ward Mayor Councilman, Fifth Ward F. J. CURLIN, M.D. BETTY DEAN ANDERSON Councilman, Second Ward Councilwoman, Sixth Ward RITA C. ARIAS DAVID OBERHELMAN NORINE MILLER Councilwoman, Third Ward Councilman, Fourth Ward Councilwoman, Seventh Ward S.L.. `I�I \ / SRN BERNARDINO PUBLIC EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION March 15, 1996 Ms. Shauna Clark City Administrator, City of San Bernardino 300 North "D" Street San Bernardino, CA. 92418 SUBJECT: Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act Dear Ms. Clark: For the last several years, the City of San Bernardino, like most other local public agencies, has been victimized by the state's annual budget deliberations. Increasing demands for services coupled with diminishing revenue sources have made your work, and the work of your employees, more difficult than ever. As you know, property tax shifts in 1992-93 and 1993-94 cost local government $3.6 billion in local revenue and represent an ongoing loss of$1.2 billion every year. Local government, the service providers closest to the taxpayers, should not have to provide the funds for state government priorities. We now have a chance to do something about it. The San Bernardino Public Employees Association, in conjunction with the California Tax Reform Association, is sponsoring a ballot initiative called the "Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act", which is designed to recover a significant portion of the property tax loss in the City of San Bernardino. Estimates from the Legislative Analyst indicate that the City of San Bernardino could realize a net increase in General Fund revenue of $455,600 if the Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act were enacted in November. However, the time to aet this measure qualified is fast running out. The purpose of this letter is to request time before your City Council to seek support for this proposal and help advertise the efforts to qualify the measure. Please review the enclosed information and contact me as soon as possible if you can agendize this matter, or if you have any questions.

Supporfi fihe :Local Confirol alnd Fiscal Responsibltllfiy Acfi a The San Bernardino Public Employees Association is supporting a;ballo# initiative filed by the California Tax Reform Association with two simple provisions: It provides relief for the fiscal distress faced bylcities and counties, in proportion to the revenue lost when the state took away property taxes from local government in order to balance its own budget, It cancels the tax break which the richest 1.2%:o f taxpayers' are due to receive in 1996, in order to pay for local relief. The result: approximately $800 million more per year will be available t4 l:und police, fire, parks, 'libraries, child protection and other vital services, Background: In 1992-93 and 1993-94, the state balanced its budget by taking away $3.6 billion in property taxes revenues from cities, counties, and special districts. While some of the loss was offset by a sales tax increase (Prop 172), the on-going loss to local government is over $2 billion every year. Instead of reversing this tax rip-off, the state then permitted the top brackets on the wealthiest taxpayers, passed in 1991, to expire after five years. The top 1.2% of taxpayers, earning over $225,000 (joint return), will receive about $800 million in yearly tax reductions while ordinary taxpayers see increases to pay for local services. The Local Control and Fiscal Responsibility Act would reverse these actions: For LOCAL CONTROL: Reverses the local property tax take-away in proportion to the amount lost by each local jurisdiction - the amount of property tax lost minus the amount of revenues from Prop 172 (if any). For FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY: Cancels the tax reduction for the wealthy and applies $800 million in revenue to local fiscal relief, insuring that local relief does not come at the expense of any other programs. Contact SBPEA for more information on the initiative and how you can help.
