 (Coauthor(s): Assembly Member Chan, Leno, Lieber, Mullin, Wiggins)

February 21, 2003

An act to amend Section 29530 of, and to add Chapter 6.3 (commencing with Section 30020) to Division 3 of Title 3 of, the Government Code, to amend Sections 6051, 6201, 7202, 7202 and 7203 of, and to add Section 97.68 to, the Revenue and Taxation Code, relating to taxation, and making an appropriation therefor.


LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 1221, as amended, Steinberg. Taxation.
(1) Existing property tax law requires the county auditor, in each fiscal year, to allocate property tax revenue to local jurisdictions in accordance with specified formulas and procedures, and generally requires that each jurisdiction be allocated an amount equal to the total of the amount of revenue allocated to that jurisdiction in the prior fiscal year, subject to certain modifications, and that jurisdiction’s portion of the annual tax increment, as defined. Existing property tax law also reduces the amounts of ad valorem property tax revenue that would otherwise be annually allocated to the county, cities, and special districts pursuant to these general allocation requirements by requiring, for purposes of determining property tax revenue allocations in each county for the 1992–93 and 1993–94 fiscal years, that the amounts of property tax revenue deemed allocated in the prior fiscal year to the county, cities, and special districts be reduced in accordance with certain formulas. It requires that the revenues not allocated to the county, cities, and special districts as a result of these reductions be transferred to the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund in that county for allocation to school districts, community college districts, and the county office of education.
The Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law authorizes a county to impose a local sales and use tax at a rate of 11/4%, and similarly authorizes a city, located within a county imposing such a tax rate, to impose a local sales tax rate of 1% that is credited against the county rate. Existing law requires a city, county, or city and county imposing a local sales and use tax pursuant to the Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law to contract with the State Board of Equalization to administer the local sales and use tax. Existing law also requires the board, at least twice during each calendar quarter, to transmit local sales and use tax revenue to the city, county, or city and county in which the revenue was collected.
This bill would, on and after July 1, 2004, of the base fiscal year, as defined, prohibit a city from imposing a sales and use tax under the Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law at a rate in excess of1/2 of 1% and prohibit a county from imposing sales and use tax under that law at a rate in excess of 3/4 of 1%.
This bill would also, for the 2004–05 base fiscal year, as defined, increase the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue deemed allocated to a county or city in the 2003–04 immediately preceding fiscal year by that county or city’s reimbursement amount, as defined, and correspondingly decrease the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue allocated to a county’s Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund by the countywide adjustment amount, as defined. This bill would also, for the fiscal year immediately following the base fiscal year, increase the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue deemed allocated to a county or city in the base fiscal year by that county or city’s adjusted reimbursement amount, as defined, and correspondingly decrease the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue allocated to a county’s Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund by the adjusted countywide adjustment amount, as defined. This bill would also prohibit these provisions from being construed to require the auditor to allocate additional ad valorem property tax revenues to a redevelopment agency. This bill would also require the board to make certain calculations and to notify county auditors of these calculations. This bill would render inoperative other provisions of the bill if a specified statute is amended in a manner that reduces the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue that is allocated to cities and counties under the bill. This bill would also make conforming changes to corresponding provisions. By imposing new duties upon local tax officials in the annual allocation of ad valorem property tax revenues, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

(2)The California Constitution requires for each fiscal year that a minimum amount of money, computed under one of 3 formulas, be set aside from all state revenues for the support of school districts and community college districts.

This bill would state the intent of the Legislature that the state maintain its aggregate funding obligations under these provisions.

(3)

(2) The Sales and Use Tax Law provides for the levy of a state sales and use tax upon the gross receipts from the sale in this state of, or the storage, use, or other consumption in this state of, tangible personal property.

This bill would, on and after July 1, 2004, increase the sales and use tax rate under that law by 12 of 1%.

This bill would result in a change in state taxes for the purpose of increasing revenues within the meaning of Section 3 of Article XIII A of the California Constitution, and thus would require for passage the approval of 23 of the membership of each house of the Legislature. (4)property. In addition to the rates imposed pursuant to that law, the California Constitution imposes a sales and use tax at a rate of1/2 of 1% for allocation to qualified counties for public safety purposes, as specified. A proposed amendment to the California Constitution, ACA ___, would impose another additional sales and use tax at a rate1/2 of 1% for allocation to school entities, as specified. That measure would establish the State School Assistance Fund for Education in the State Treasury and a School Assistance Fund for Education (SAFE) in each county to receive revenues derived from the proposed additional sales and use tax, as provided.
This bill would make an appropriation by continuously appropriating moneys in the State SAFE to county SAFEs, as specified. This bill would also require county auditors to allocate moneys from a county SAFE to school districts, county offices of education, community college districts, and, if applicable, county superintendents of schools in the same manner as ad valorem property tax revenues are allocated to these entities from a county Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund. By imposing new duties upon local tax officials in the annual allocation of these revenues, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
This bill would become effective only if ACA ___ is approved by voters. (3) 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, including the creation of a State Mandates Claims Fund to pay the costs of mandates that do not exceed $1,000,000 statewide and other procedures for claims whose statewide costs exceed $1,000,000.
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.

Each county’s School Assistance Fund for Education shall be allocated an amount that is equal to the amount of revenue, less refunds, derived in that county from the taxes imposed pursuant to Section 36 of Article XIII of the California Constitution.
(b) On or before the 27th day of each month, the Controller shall allocate to each county School Assistance Fund for Education the amounts deposited and remaining unexpended and unresolved in the State School Assistance Fund for Education as of the 15th day of each month.
(c) (1) On or before August 20 of the base fiscal year, and on or before the 20th day of each month thereafter, the county auditor shall allocate moneys from a county School Assistance Fund for Education according to this subdivision to school districts and county offices of education, in total, and to community college districts, in total, in the same proportion that property tax revenues were distributed to school districts and county offices of education, in total, and community college districts, in total, during the base fiscal year.
(2) The county auditor shall, based on information provided by the county superintendent of schools pursuant to this paragraph, allocate that proportion of the revenue in the School Assistance Fund for Education to be allocated to school districts and county offices of education only to those school districts and county offices of education within the county that are not excess tax school entities, as defined in subdivision (n) of Section 95. The county superintendent of schools shall determine the amount to be allocated to each school district in inverse proportion to the amounts of property tax revenue per average daily attendance in each school district. For each county office of education, the allocation shall be made based on the historical split of base property tax revenue between the county office of education and school districts within the county. In no event shall any additional money be allocated from the School Assistance Fund for Education to a school district or county office of education upon that district or county office of education becoming an excess tax school entity. If, after determining the amount to be allocated to each school district and county office of education, the county superintendent of schools determines there are still additional funds to be allocated, the county superintendent of schools shall determine the remainder to be allocated in inverse proportion to the amounts of property tax revenue, excluding Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund moneys, per average daily attendance in each remaining school district, and on the basis of the historical split described above for each county office of education that is not an excess tax school entity, until all funds that would not result in a school district or county office of education becoming an excess tax school entity are allocated. The county superintendent of schools may determine the amounts to be allocated between each school district and county office of education to ensure that all funds that would not result in a school district or county office of education becoming an excess tax school entity are allocated.
(3) The county auditor shall, based on information provided by the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges pursuant to this paragraph, allocate that proportion of the revenue in the School Assistance Fund for Education to be allocated to community college districts only to those community college districts within the county that are not excess tax school entities, as defined in subdivision (n) of Section 95. The chancellor shall determine the amount to be allocated to each community college district in inverse proportion to the amounts of property tax revenue per funded full-time equivalent student in each community college district. In no event shall any additional money be allocated from the School Assistance Fund for Education to a community college district upon that district becoming an excess tax school entity.
(4) (A) If, after making the allocation required pursuant to paragraph (2), the auditor determines that there are still additional funds to be allocated, the auditor shall allocate those excess funds pursuant to paragraph (3). If, after making the allocation pursuant to paragraph (3), the auditor determines that there are still additional funds to be allocated, the auditor shall allocate those excess funds pursuant to paragraph (2). If, after determining the amount to be allocated to each community college district, the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges determines that there are still additional funds to be allocated, the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges shall determine the remainder to be allocated to each community college district in inverse proportion to the amounts of property tax revenue, excluding Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund moneys, per funded full-time equivalent student in each remaining community college district that is not an excess tax school entity until all funds that would not result in a community college district becoming an excess tax school entity are allocated.
(B) If, after making the allocations pursuant to paragraphs (2) and (3) and subparagraph (A), the auditor determines that there are still additional funds to be allocated, the auditor shall allocate those excess funds to the county superintendent of schools.
