LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 62, Nava. Disaster relief.
(1) Existing law authorizes a county board of supervisors to provide by ordinance for the reassessment of property that is damaged or destroyed, without fault on the part of the assessee, by a major misfortune or calamity, upon the application of the assessee or upon the action of the county assessor with the board’s approval. With respect to certain counties that have adopted reassessment ordinances and have been declared by the Governor to be in a state of emergency as a result of certain events, existing law provides for state allocations of the estimated amounts of the reductions in property tax revenues resulting in certain fiscal years from reassessments under those ordinances. Existing law also continuously appropriates, without regard to fiscal years, moneys in the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties for purposes of funding these state allocations.
This bill would provide for similar state allocations with respect to property tax revenue reductions resulting from a reassessment for damages incurred within the County of Ventura, which was declared by the Governor to be in a state of emergency due to the wildfires that occurred during the 2006 calendar year, the County of El Dorado, which was declared by the Governor to be in a state of emergency due to the wildfires that occurred in June 2007, and the Counties of Santa Barbara and Ventura, which were declared by the Governor to be in a state of emergency due the Zaca Fire that occurred during the 2007 calendar year.
By requiring moneys continuously appropriated from the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties to be allocated for the new purpose of reimbursing these counties for these property tax revenue reductions, this bill would make an appropriation.
(2) Existing property tax law provides, pursuant to a specified provision of the California Constitution, for a homeowners’ property tax exemption in the amount of $7,000 of the full value of a “dwelling,” as defined.
This bill would provide that any dwelling that qualified for the exemption prior to the commencement dates, as listed in the Governor’s proclamations during the 2006 calendar year, that was damaged or destroyed by the wildfires in the County of Ventura, and that has not changed ownership since the commencement dates, as listed in the Governor’s proclamations of 2006, may not be denied the exemption solely on the basis that the dwelling was temporarily damaged or destroyed or was being reconstructed by the owner, or was temporarily uninhabited as a result of restricted access to the property due to wildfires.
This bill would also provide that any dwelling that qualified for the exemption prior to June 24, 2007, that was damaged or destroyed by the wildfires in the County of El Dorado, as declared by the Governor in June 2007, and that has not changed ownership since June 24, 2007, may not be denied an exemption solely on the basis that the dwelling was temporarily damaged or destroyed or was being reconstructed by the owner, or was temporarily uninhabited as a result of restricted access to the property due to wildfires.
This bill would additionally provide that any dwelling that qualified for the exemption prior to July 4, 2007, that was damaged or destroyed by the Zaca Fire that occurred in the Counties of Santa Barbara and Ventura, as declared by the Governor in August 2007, and that has not changed ownership since July 4, 2007, may not be denied an exemption solely on the basis that the dwelling was temporarily damaged or destroyed or was being reconstructed by the owner, or was temporarily uninhabited as a result of restricted access to the property due to the Zaca Fire.
The California Constitution requires the Legislature, in each fiscal year, to reimburse local governments for the revenue losses incurred by those governments in that fiscal year as a result of the homeowners’ property tax exemption.
This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to make this required reimbursement in the annual Budget Act. By requiring local tax officials to implement new exemption criteria, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions.
(3) The Personal Income Tax Law and the Corporation Tax Law provide for the carryover to specified taxable years of specified losses sustained as a result of certain disasters occurring in California in an area determined by the President of the United States to warrant specified federal assistance, or proclaimed by the Governor to be in a state of emergency.
This bill would extend these provisions to losses sustained in the County of Ventura as a result of the wildfires that occurred during the 2006 calendar year, the County of El Dorado as a result of the wildfires that occurred in June 2007, and the Counties of Santa Barbara and Ventura as a result of the Zaca Fire that occurred during the 2007 calendar year. This bill would authorize a taxpayer to make an election to claim a deduction for those losses on the tax return for the preceding year.
(4) (A) This bill would incorporate additional changes to Sections 218, 17207, and 24347.5 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, proposed by SB 38 and SB 114, to be operative only if SB 38, SB 114, and this bill are all enacted, all 3 bills amend the respective sections, and this bill is enacted after SB 38 and SB 114.
(B) This bill would incorporate additional changes to Sections 218, 17207, and 24347.5 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, proposed by SB 38, to be operative only if SB 38 and this bill are both enacted, each bill amends the respective sections, SB 114 is not enacted, or if enacted, does not amend those sections, and this bill is enacted after SB 38.
(C) This bill would incorporate additional changes to Sections 218, 17207, and 24347.5 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, proposed by SB 114, to be operative only if SB 114 and this bill are both enacted, each bill amends the respective sections, SB 38 is not enacted, or if enacted, does not amend those sections, and this bill is enacted after SB 114.
(5) This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
