LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 220, as amended, Ting.
Sales and use taxes: exemption: low-emission vehicles.
(1) Existing sales and use tax laws impose a tax on retailers measured by the gross receipts from the sale of tangible personal property sold at retail in this state, or on the storage, use, or other consumption in this state of tangible personal property purchased from a retailer for the storage, use, or other consumption in this state, and provides various exemptions from those taxes.
The bill would, until January 1, 2018, exempt from those taxes the gross receipts from the sale of, and the storage, use, or other consumption of, specified low-emission vehicles purchased by a person.
The Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law authorizes counties and cities to impose local sales
and use taxes in conformity with the Sales and Use Tax Law, and existing law also authorizes districts, as specified, to impose transactions and use taxes in conformity with the Transactions and Use Tax Law, which conforms to the Sales and Use Tax Law. Exemptions from state sales and use taxes are incorporated into these laws.
This bill would specify that this exemption does not apply to local sales and use taxes.
The bill would, until January 1, 2018, provide either a partial exemption or a partial exclusion from those taxes with respect to the sale of specified low-emission vehicles, as provided.
The Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law authorizes counties and cities to
impose local sales and use taxes in conformity with the Sales and Use Tax Law, and existing law authorizes districts, as specified, to impose transactions and use taxes in accordance with the Transactions and Use Tax Law, which conforms to the Sales and Use Tax Law. Amendments to state sales and use taxes are incorporated into these laws.
Section 2230 of the Revenue and Taxation Code provides that the state will reimburse counties and cities for revenue losses caused by the enactment of sales and use tax exemptions.
This bill would provide that, notwithstanding Section 2230 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, no appropriation is made and the state shall not reimburse any local agencies for sales and use tax revenues lost by them pursuant to this bill.
(2) This
bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.
