!SUBJECT
Jeffery Maze, Senior Building Inspector
February 21, 2023
Adoption of updated California Building Standards Code
!RECOMMENDATION
Enact Ordinance No. 853 revising Anderson Municipal Code Chapter 15 and adopting by reference the 2022 Edition of the California Building Standards Code, as introduced on February 7, 2023 (First Reading).

I FISCAL IMPACT
The adoption of the 2022 California Building Codes will have a minor negative fiscal impact.

While all building and plan check fees are proposed to remain the same, the new Codes have additional requirements that will take more time to verify compliance during the plan check process.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In January 2023, the State Building Standards Commission adopted the 2022 California Building Standards Code with State amendments. It was published in July 2022 and became effective throughout the State in January 2022.

ITEM 6.8 PAGE1 2/21/2023
Building Codes are typically updated every three years and adopted by the State with amendments. The State mandates through the Health and Safety Code that the CBSC be enforced by local jurisdictions. Local jurisdictions may not adopt lesser construction standards than those mandated by the State; however, they may adopt more stringent standards when based on findings of fact for climatic, geographical, or topographical reasons.

Although the 2022 CBSC will entail many changes in the way buildings and structures are constructed, staff does not recommend modifications to the code other than continuing to provide the clarifications that the City has previously provided. !ATTACHMENT

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Anderson City Council Jeff Kiser, City Manager
Date: February 21, 2023
!SUBJECT
Initiative No. 21-0042A-1 Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act

I RECOMMENDATION
Consider adoption of a Resolution opposing Initiative No. 21-0042A1, the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act.

I FISCAL IMPACT
Fee revenue amount could be put at risk, increased legal defense costs, invalidation of taxes or future reduction of tax revenues, delayed annexations/development.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act would amend the California Constitution with provisions that limit voters' authority and input, adopt new and stricter rules for raising taxes and fees, and may make it more difficult to impose fines and penalties for violation of state and local laws.

The measure puts billions of local government tax and fee revenues at risk statewide with related core public service impacts.

ITEM 8.3 PAGE1 2/21/2023
The measure would have significant negative impacts on the City of Anderson operations and core service delivery.

The proposed constitutional initiative is sponsored by the California Business Round table.

Full text of Ballot Initiative
I. MAJOR PROVISIONS
Fees and Chargesl:
• Except for licensing and other regulatory fees, fees and charges may not exceed the "actual cost" of providing the product or service for which the fee is charged. "Actual cost" is the "minimum amount necessary." The burden to prove the fee or charge does not exceed "actual cost" is changed to "clear and convincing" evidence. • Requires fees and charges paid for the use of local and state government property and the amount paid to purchase or rent government property to be "reasonable." These fees and charges are currently allowed to be market-based. Whether the amount is "reasonable" (introducing a new legal standard aiming to force below market fee and charge amounts) must be proved by "clear and convincing evidence."2 The standard may significantly reduce the amount large companies ( e.g., oil, utilities, gas, railroads, garbage/refuse, cable, and other corporations) will pay for the use oflocal public property. • Prohibits fees on new development based on vehicle miles traveled.

Taxes3:
• Taxes and fees adopted after Jan. 1, 2022, that do not comply with the new rules, are void unless reenacted4.
• Invalidates Upland decision that allows a majority of local voters to pass special taxes. The measure specifies that taxes proposed by the initiative are subject to the same rules as taxes placed on the ballot by a city council.
• Expressly prohibits local advisory measures which allow local voters to express a preference for how local general tax dollars should be spent.5 • Requires voter approval to expand existing taxes (e.g., Utility, Transient Occupancy) to new territory (e.g., annexations) or to expand the tax base (e.g., new utility service) • New taxes can only be imposed for a specific time period. • City charters may not be amended to include a tax or fee. • All state taxes require majority voter approval.

ITEM 8.3 PAGE 2 2/21/2023
Fines and Penalties6:

II.
• May require voter approval of fines, penalties, and levies for corporations and property owners that violate state and local laws unless a new, undefined adjudicatory process is used to impose the fines and penalties.

DISCUSSION /ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND
On Jan. 4, 2022, the California Business Roundtable filed the "Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act" or AG# 21-0042Al. On Feb. l, 2023, the measure qualified for the November 2024 ballot.

The League of California Cities, along with a broad coalition of local governments, labor and public safety leaders, infrastructure advocates, and businesses, strongly opposes this initiative.

Local government revenue-raising authority is currently substantially restricted by state statute and constitutional provisions, including the voter approved provisions of Proposition 13 of 1978, Proposition 218 of 1996, and Proposition 26 of 2010. The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act adds and expands restrictions on voters and local government tax and fee authority.

Fees and Taxes
Local governments levy a variety of fees and other charges to provide core public services.

Major examples of affected fees and charges are:
• Nuisance abatement charges, such as for weed, rubbish, and general nuisance abatement to fund community safety, code enforcement, and neighborhood cleanup programs. • Commercial franchise fees.
• Emergency response fees, such as in connection with DUI. • Advanced Life Support (ALS) transport charges.
• Document processing and duplication fees.
• Transit fees, tolls, parking fees, and public airport and harbor use fees. • Facility use charges, fees for parks and recreation services, garbage disposal tipping fees.

Virtually every city, county, and special district must regularly (e.g., annually) adopt increases to fee rates and charges and revise rate schedules to accommodate new users and activities. Most of these would be subject to new standards and limitations under threat of legal challenge. Based on the current volume of fees and charges imposed by local agencies, including council-adopted increases to simply accommodate inflation, Cal Cities estimates the amount of local government fee and charge revenue at risk is approximately $2 billion per year including those adopted since Jan. 1, 2022. Over ten years, $20 billion of local government fee and charge revenues will be at heightened legal peril.

Examples of the City of Anderson's affected fees and charges include:
6 Initiative No. 21-0042Al (pg. 5 (4))
ITEM 8.3 PAGE3 2/21/2023
Hundreds of local tax measures were approved in 20227 that likely do not comply with the provisions of the initiative. Nearly $2 billion of annual revenues from these voter-approved measures will cease a year after the effective date of the measure, reducing the local public services funded by these measures, unless the tax is re-submitted for voter approval.

Reductions on local government tax revenues have impacts on core services and infrastructure including fire and emergency response, law enforcement, streets and roads, drinking water, sewer sanitation, parks, libraries, public schools, affordable housing, homelessness prevention, and mental health services.

Examples of the City of Anderson's affected revenue measures and service impacts include:

Fines and Penalties
Under existing law, cities are required to provide due process before imposing a penalty or fine for violation of its municipal code:

1. A local agency must adopt administrative procedures that govern imposing fines and penalties, including providing a reasonable period of time for a person responsible for a continuing violation to correct or remedy the violation [Gov't Code 53069.4].

2. Notice must be given to the violating party before imposing the penalty; and give the party an opportunity to be heard and present any facts or arguments [Merco Construction Engineers v. Los Angeles Unified School District (1969) 27 4 CA 2d 154, 166].

3. The fine may not be "excessive" [U.S. Constitution amendments VIII and XIV].

The initiative converts administratively-imposed fines and penalties into taxes unless a new, undefined, and ambiguous "adjudicatory due process" is followed. This provision may put at risk authority to impose fines and penalties for violations of state and local law. !ATTACHMENT

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ANDERSON
OPPOSING INITIATIVE 21-0042A1
WHEREAS, an association representing California's wealthiest corporations and developers is spending millions to push a deceptive proposition aimed for the November 2024 statewide ballot; and
WHEREAS, the measure includes undemocratic provisions that would make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures needed to fund local services and infrastructure, and would limit voter input by prohibiting local advisory measures where voters provide direction on how they want their local tax dollars spent; and WHEREAS, the measure creates new constitutional loopholes that allow corporations to pay far less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities, including local infrastructure and our environment; and
WHEREAS, the measure may make it much more difficult for state and local regulators to issue fines and levies on corporations that violate laws intended to protect our environment, public health and safety, and our neighborhoods; and WHEREAS, the measure puts billions of dollars currently dedicated to local services at risk and could force cuts to fire and emergency response, law enforcement, public health, parks, libraries, affordable housing, services to support homeless residents, mental health services, and more; and
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Anderson opposes Initiative 21-0042Al; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City of Anderson will join the No on Initiative 21- 0042A1 coalition, a growing coalition of public safety, education, labor, local government, and infrastructure groups throughout the state.

PASSED AND ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Anderson this 21st day February 2023, by the following vote:

The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act Initiative No. 21-0042A 11
Feb. 1, 2023
Effective date: Any new or increased tax or fee adopted by the Legislature, a city council, or the local voters after January 1, 2022, must comply with the Act's new rules.

Voters
• Local advisory measures are prohibited. No measure may appear on the ballot asking for approval of a general tax that would allow the voters to express a preference for how the revenue from the general tax will, could, or should be used.
• Overturns Upland decision which upheld a special tax that had been placed on the ballot by the voters to be approved by a majority vote. Taxes proposed by initiative will be subject to the same rules as taxes placed on the ballot by a city council.
• Voters may not amend a city charter to impose, extend, or increase a tax or fee.

Local taxes
• Requires voter approval in order to apply an existing tax:
o to territory that is annexed.
o to a new seNice or product, for example when a utility user tax is applied to a new seNice.
• All new or increased taxes adopted after Jan. 1, 2022, must include a sunset date.

State taxes
• All new or increased state taxes require statewide voter approval. • Prohibits a property tax "surcharge•t (increase). Prohibits any allocation of property tax to the state.
1 This is a summary of some of the more significant provisions of the Act. Please review the Act for a complete understanding of the changes it makes to the Constitution.

CITIES
Fees and charges
• Fees and charges for services and permits may not exceed the "actual cost" of providing the product or service for which the fee is charged. "Actual cost" is the "minimum amount necessary." Examples include planning services, excavation and encroachment permits, preparation of candidate statement, and permit parking.
• State and cities have the burden of proving by "clear and convincing evidence" that a fee/charge is not a tax, that the amount is reasonable, and that it does not exceed "actual cost."
• Franchise fees - historically considered fees, not taxes - will more likely be considered taxes due to the elimination of an existing category of "fee" and the requirement that charges to entrance, purchase, rental, or lease of government property be "reasonable.'' The state and cities issue franchises to oil companies, utilities, gas companies, railroads, garbage companies, cable companies, and other corporations.
• No fee or charge or exaction regulating vehicle miles traveled can be imposed as a condition of property development or occupancy.

Fines and penaltles (administrative enforcement of state law and municipal codes)
• May require voter approval of fines and penalties for corporations and property owners that violate state and local laws unless a new, undefined adjudicatory process is used to impose the fines and penalties. Examples include nuisance abatement, organic waste reduction requirements, and failure to maintain a vacant property.

Fiscal and Program Effects of
Initiative 21-0042A 1 on Local Governments
If Initiative 21-0042A 1 is placed on the ballot and passed by voters, it will result in:
• Over $20 billion of local government fee and charge revenues over 10 years placed at heightened legal peril. Related public service reductions across virtually every aspect of city, county, special district, and school services especially for drinking water, sewer sanitation, and public health and safety. • About $2 billion of revenues each year from fees and charges adopted after January 1, 2021 subject to legal peril.1
• Over $2 billion dollars of annual revenues from dozens of tax measures approved by voters between January 1, 2022 and the effective date of the act2 subject to additional voter approval if not in compliance with the initiative.
• Indeterminable legal and administrative burdens and costs on local government from new and more empowered legal challenges, and bureaucratic cost tracking requirements. • The delay and deterrence of municipal annexations.
• Substantially higher legal and administrative cost of public infrastructure financing which will delay and deter new residential and commercial development.
• Service and infrastructure declines including in fire and emergency response, law enforcement, public health, drinking water, sewer sanitation, parks, libraries, public schools, affordable housing, homelessness prevention and mental health services.

1. Local Government Taxes and Services Threatened
With regard to taxes, Initiative 21-0042A1:
• Prohibits advisory, non-binding measures as to use of tax proceeds on the same ballot. o Voters may be less informed and more likely to vote against measures. • Eliminates the ability of special tax measures proposed by citizen initiative to be enacted by majority voter approval ( Upland). 3
o Because the case law regarding citizen initiative special taxes approved by majority vote (Upland) is so recent, it is unknown how common these sorts of measures might be in the future. This inittative would prohibit such measures after the effective date of the initiative. Any such measures adopted after January 1, 2022 through the effective date of the Act should it pass would be void a year after the effective date of the initiative. • Requires that tax measures include a specific duration of time that the tax will be imposed. This seems to require that all tax increases or extensions contain a sunset (end date). o This would require additional tax measures to extend previously approved taxes. • A city charter may not be amended to impose, extend, or increase a tax might interfere with the ability of cities that do not already have such authority in their charters to adopt Property Transfer Taxes. o There are no more than a few of these every few years. but it is a valuable tax for those that adopt it.
1 Assumes fee increases since January 1, 2022 would be subject to possible legal challenge if not adopted in compliance with the Initiative.
2 The effective date of the initiative would be sometime in December 2024, the date the California Secretary of State certifies the election results o f the NO\·embcr 5, 2024 election. 3 Unlike the initiative 17-0050, this initiative does not eliminate that ability of cities and counties to adopt general taxes by majorit}' voter approval.

• Requires that a tax measure adopted after January 1, 2022 and before the effective date of the initiative that was not adopted in accordance with the measure be readopted in compliance with the measure or will be void twelve months after the effective date of the initiative. o If past election patterns and elections in 2022 are an indication, over 200 tax measures approving more than $2 billion annual revenues to support local public services would not be in compliance and would be subject to reenactment. Most will be taxes without a specific end date and special taxes (including parcel taxes). Because there is no regularly scheduled election within the 12 months following the effective date of the initiative, the measures would each require declaratfon of emergency and unanimous vote of the governing board to be placed on a special election ballot within a year for approval or the tax will be void after that date. I would expect most to succeed, but some will not. in particular citizen initiative majority vote special taxes which would have to meet a higher voter approval threshold to continue. • Requires voter approval to expand an existing tax to new territory (annexations). This would require additional tax measures and would deter annexations and land development in cities. o If a tax is "extended" to an annexed area without a vote after January 1, 2022, it will be void 12 months later until brought into compliance. Because there is no regularly scheduled election within the 12 months following the effective date of the initiative, such extensions would each require unanimous vote of the agency board to be placed on a special election ballot or would be void a year later.

1.a. Number of Measures and Value of Local Taxes at Risk" Over a hundred local measures were approved in 2022 that likely do not comply with the provisions of Initiative 21-0042A1. Nearly $2 billion of annual revenues from these voter approved measures will cease a year after the effective date of the measure, reducing the local public services funded by these measures. We can expect a similar volume of measures in 2024 and a similar volume of non-compliance. So the combined total of annual local funding directly affected by lnitiat•ve 21-0042A1 due to its retroactivity provision is about $4 billion.

Citizen Initiative Special Taxes in 2022.

Special taxes placed on the ballot by citizen initiative and approved after January 1, 2022 by a majority but less than two-thirds of the voters are out of compliance with Initiative 21-0042A 1.

On June 7, 2022, there were three local specia, tax measures placed on the ballot by citizen initiative. Two failed to get majority voter approval. A one percent transactions and use tax (sales tax) for the John C. Fremont Healthcare District in Mariposa County received 69.6 percent approval, over the two thirds needed for any special tax under Californta Constitution Article XIIIC. So this measure was passed in compliance with Initiative 21- 0042A1.

measures failed with less than majority voter approval. The other seven measures received majority, but less than two-thirds, voter approval. These measures passed under current law but are out of compliance with Initiative 21- 0042A1. Taken together these seven taxes will provide estimated annual revenues of from $900,000 to $1.4 billion in support of parks and recreation, zoo, library, affordable housing, transportation, homelessness prevention. and schools in these communities.

Voters approved 106 measures in June 2022 (10) and November 2022 (96) that do not provide a specific duration of time that the tax wfll be imposed (end date). Typically, the ballot titles for these measures state that the tax would be imposed ·until ended by voters.· Four of these measures also did not include any estimate of the annual revenues that the tax would generate, another violation of initiative 21-0042A 1. Taken together, these approved local measures generate $561 million per year that will expire a year after the effective date of the initiative if Initiative 21-0042A 1 passes.

At the November 2022 election, there was just one local general tax measure that was accompanied by an advisory measure as to the use of funds. The City of Santa Monica's Measure DT property transfer tax failed with just 34 percent approval as voters instead chose the citizen initiative Measure GS.

There was also just one such tax use advisory measure on the June 2022 election. Susanville's voters passed Measure P, a 1 percent transactions and use (sales) tax that generates $1.75 million per year5 for general city services. The measure was accompanied by advisory Measure Q, accompanied the city's It asked, "If Measure P passes. should the revenues be used to balance the budget to maintain and enhance existing public safety services (police and fire), and provide funding to support street infrastructure improvements and provide funding to support economic development efforts designed to increase businesses, jobs and visitors to Susanville?" Both measures passed. Under Initiative 21-0042A 1, the tax will expire a year after the effective date of the initiative (i.e., in December 2025).

1.b. Additional Costs and Public Service Effects of the Tax Provisions Assuming a similar volume of local measures through 2024 as we saw in 2022, there will be over 200 local measures that will need to be redrafted to comply with the Initiative and placed back on the ballot for the taxes to continue after December 2025. The costs of re-drafting, re-placfng and re-voting on these measures, previously legally approved by voters, will be in the tens of millions in total statewide.

2. "Exempt Charges" (fees and charges that are not taxes} and Services Threatened With regard to fees and charges adopted after January 1, 2022, lnitiattve 21-0042A1:
• Subjects new fees and charges for a product or service to a new ~actual and reasonable test." • Subjects fees and charges for entrance to local government property; and rental and sale of local government property to a new, undefined, 8reasonable" test. • Allows legal challenge to any tax adopted before the effective date of the initiative and after January 1, S The Susand lle measure also did not include a specific end date and so is included in the list and totals of those measures.

2022. Such a lawsuit could enjoin (stop) the enactment of the tax pending the outcome of the legal challenge.
• Subjects a challenged fee to new, higher burdens of proof if legally challenged.

2.a. Value on New Local Government Fees and Charges at Risk6 Virtually every city, county, and special district must regularly (e.g., annually) adopt increases to fee rates and charges and revise rate schedules to accommodate new users and activities. Most of these would be subject to new standards and limitations under threat of legal challenge. Based on the current volume of fees and charges imposed by local agencies and increases in those fees simply to accommodate inflation, the amount of local government fee and charge revenue placed at risk is about $2 billion per year including those adopted since January 1, 2022. Of $2 billion, about $900 million (45 percent) is for special districts, $800 million (40 percent) is cities, and $300 million (15 percent) is counties.7 Major examples of affected fees and charges are:

1. Certain water, sanitary sewer, wastewater, garbage, electric, gas service fees.

2. Nuisance abatement charges - such as for weed, rubbish and general nuisance abatement to fund community safety, code enforcement, and neighborhood cleanup programs.

3. Emergency response fees - such as in connection with DUI.

4. Advanced Life Support (ALS) transport charges.

5. Business improvement district charges.

6. Fees for processing of land use and development applications such as plan check fees, use permits, design review, environmental assessment, plan amendment. subdivision map changes.

7. Document processing and duplication fees.

8. Facility use charges, parking fees, tolls.

9. Fines, penalties.

10. Fees for parks and recreation services.

2.b. Additional Costs and Public Service Effects of the Fee/Charge Provisions In addition to service delays and disruptions due to fee and charge revenues placed at greater legal risk, there would be substantial additionat costs for legal defense. The risk to fees and charges will make infrastructure financing more difficult and will deter new residential and commercial development. ***********

I RECOMMENDATION
The Assistant City Manager /Finance Director recommends that the City Council:

No action is requested at time as this is informational only.

I FISCAL IMPACT
This report is informational only.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
We are two-thirds of way through the 2022-2023 budget. Staff would like to take this time to review how revenues and expenditures are performing at this point through the year.

Revenue and expenditure numbers are recorded through January for the general fund because we receive our first installment of property tax in January so this is approximately 58% of the budget year. Generally, when we discuss General Fund Revenues, we discuss the top 3 categories which are Sales Tax, Property Tax, and Transient Occupancy Tax.

These three (3) categories make up about 81% of our General Fund Revenues. Below, is a ITEM 8.5 PAGE 1 2/21/2023
table comparing budgeted general fund revenues to actual receipts for the top three (3) revenues through January 2023. Additionally, we have added information from the sametime frame in January 2022 as a comparison.

At this time revenues are being received as expected. Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) is lower than expected due to one hotel being late in submitting their TOT payment, Property Tax is on track as predicted. We receive Property Tax payments in slightly un-even payments with the bulk received in January and the final bulk payment in May. Sales Tax and Transaction and Use Tax slightly lower than expected. Two main factors that could have an effect on revenues going forward are higher inflation and increased interest rates.

Housing has slowed in the City of Anderson likely due to the above-mentioned factors.

General Fund Expenditures
Total general fund expenditures for 2022-2023 were originally budgeted at$ 11,426,021 with actual expenditures through January 2023 (again which is 58% of the budget year) coming in at $6,399,035 or approximately 57%.

Expenditures are on track at this point in time. Supply chain issues and higher inflation has been a concern; however, staff is very diligent in researching pricing for needed supplies which is reflective of expenditures remaining on target.

Staffing continues to be a challenge across the City. While the positions are budgeted, they remain unfilled. Tasks are being covered either by a consultant at this time or current staff is doing more than one job. For example, as Council may recall at the Council Meeting of February 7, 2023 Council adjusted the salary range to attract applicants for the Director of Operations and Administration position.

After meeting with our Sales Tax Consultant earlier this month HdL, they provided information from Beacon economist Chris Thornberg, in which he states a recession is unlikely in 2023 which is good news.

General Fund Reserve
General Fund reserves as budgeted are projected to increase by $396,725 should revenues and expenditures remain as budgeted. As always, staff continually monitors both revenues and expenditures for needed adjustments. We are finishing up our audit for 2021-2022 and ITEM 8.5 PAGE2 2/21/2023
the expected increase to the General Fund Reserve in 2021-2022 is approximately $350,397 for a total of $3,475,659 which is 33% of expenditures. This is above the Council resolution of 20%-25%.

The Water Revenue is down approximately 9% from the previous year. This decline is directly related to reduced consumption for the same time frame. In 2022-2023 water consumption declined by 6,057,728 cubic feet. Conservation requests and requirements result in reduced revenue to the City. Sewer Fund revenues are coming in as projected.

Sewer revenues are collected with resident's property tax bill so the City receives this revenue in January and May. State mandates, such as, water conservation measures, drought restrictions continue to challenge city revenues and expenditures in the two funds.

The State of California routinely enacts legislation requiring local governments to implement regulations without necessary funding to finance the regulations. Staff is diligent in balancing the need to maintain the infrastructure while also managing the costs.

Wherever possible staff is researching grants that can be used to enhance our financing.

Water fund expenditures are budgeted at $1,737,412 and are at 57% or $930,018.00.

Sewer fund expenditures are budgeted at $1,966,976 and are at 59% or $1,180,388.78.

Gas Tax Funds and Other funds
State and local gas tax revenues and expenditures are coming in at $552,964 or 45% and expenditures are at$ 1,223,468 or 66%. All other funds of the City are performing as expected at this point in the fiscal year.

Potential Economic Factors/Trends:

The following economic factors may have a significant effect on the National and Local economies. Staff is actively monitoring these issues for their possible effect on City operations:
