(Parcel Map 11353)

OVERVIEW
A. INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to the provisions of the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982, being Chapter 6.4 of the California Government Code, commencing with Section 54703 (hereafter referred to as the "1982 Act"), and in compliance with the substantive and procedural requirements of the California State Constitution Article XlllD (hereafter referred to as the "Califomia Constitution"), the City Council of the City of Tehachapi, County of Kern, State of Califomia (hereafter referred to as "City"), propose to form and levy special benefit assessments for the district to be designated as:

Drainage Benefit Assessment District No. 1B
(Parcel Map 11353)
(hereafter refened to as "District"), which includes Accesso/s Parcel Number ("APN") 223-190'44 that will receive special beneflt from the drainage improvements installed and maintained in connection with the existing Drainage Benefit Assessment District No. 1 (Parcel Map 1 1353) and the development of this nonresidential parcel within the City limits of Tehachapi. This Enginee/s Report (hereafter referred to as "Report") has been prepared in connection with the formation of said District and the levy and collection of annual assessments related thereto commencing in fiscal year 202312024, as required pursuant to Section 54716 of the 1982 Act.

The City Council proposes to form the District, and levy and collect annual assessments on the County tax roll to provide ongoing funding for the costs and expenses required to service and maintain drainage improvements and appurtenant facilities that are necessary and essential requirements for the development of the properties within the District to cause the protection of those properties and the surrounding ecological environment from flooding. The improvements to be provided by the District and the assessments described herein are made pursuant to the 1982 Act and the substantive and procedural provisions of the California Constitution.

The formation of this District and the assessments described herein will provide a funding source for the continued operation and maintenance of the drainage improvements that are directly associated with the development of properties within the District and for the special benefit of those properties.

The budgets and assessments described in this Report are based on the planned improvements and development requirements associated with the expansion of Tract No. 11353. The budgets described herein, represent an estimate of the direct expenditures, incidental expenses, and fund balances that will be necessary to ensure proper maintenance, servicing and funding needs to support the drainage improvements that provide special benefit to properties within the District, The word "parcel," for the purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assesso/s Parcel Number by the Kern County Assesso/s Office, The Kern County Auditor-Controller uses Assesso/s Parcel Numbers and specific Fund Numbers to identify properties to be assessed on the tax roll for the special benefit assessments.

B. BALLOT PROCEEDINGS
As part of this District formation, the City shall conduct a property owner protest ballot proceeding for the proposed levy of a new assessment pursuant to the provisions of the California Constitution, Article XlllD Section 4. ln conjunction with this ballot proceeding, the City Councilwill conduct a public hearing to consider public testimonies, comments and written protests regarding the formation of the District and levy of assessments. Upon conclusion of the public hearing, property owner protest ballots received will be opened and tabulated to determine whether majority protest exists (ballots shall be weighted based on the calculated proportional assessment amount for each benefiting parcel), and by resolution the City Council will confirm the results of the ballot tabulation. lf majority protest exists, proceedings for the formation of the District and the levy of the proposed assessments shall be abandoned. lf tabulation of the ballots indicates that majority protest does not exist for the proposed assessments and the assessment range formula presented and described herein, the City Council may approve the Report (as submitted or amended), order the formation of the District, and approve the levy and collection of assessments. ln such case, the assessments for fiscal year 2023t2024 shall be submitted to the Kern County Auditor-Controller for inclusion on the property tax roll for each parcel,
C. REPORT CONTENTS
Plans and Specifications: A description of the District boundaries and the proposed improvements associated with the District. The District is being formed with a single benefit zone encompassing all properties within the territory identified as Drainage Benefit Assessment District No. 1 B (Tract No. 1 1353).

Method of Apportionment: A discussion of benefits, the improvements and services provide to properties within the District, and the method of calculating each property's proportional special benefit and annual assessment. This section also identifies and outlines an Assessment Range Formula that provides for an annual adjustment to the maximum assessment rate that establishes limits on future assessments, but also provides for reasonable cost adjustments due to inflation without the added expense of additional property owner protest ballot proceedings
The District Budqet: An estimate of the annual costs to operate, maintain and service drainage improvements related to the properties within the District. This budget includes an estimate of anticipated direct maintenance costs and incidental expenses including, but not limited to administration expenses and the collection of appropriate fund balances to establish an initial maximum assessment to be approved by the property owners of record. The special benefit maximum assessment proposed for this District is based on an estimate of the annual maintenance and operational expenses at full build out of the improvements. The proposed assessments for the first flscal year (202312024), and each subsequent year shall be based on the estimated net annual cost of operating, maintaining and servicing the District improvements for that fiscal year. The proposed maximum assessment (Rate per Equivalent Benefit Unit) identified in the budget of this Report establishes the initial maximum assessment rate for the District in flscal year 202312024 and shall be adjusted annually by the Assessment Range Formula described in the method of apportionment.

District Diaoram: A Diagram showing the exterior boundaries of the District is provided in this Report and includes all parcels that will receive special benefits from the improvements. Parcel identification, the lines and dimensions of each lot, parcel and subdivision of land within the District, are inclusive of all parcels as shown on the Kern County Assesso/s Parcel Maps as they existed at the time this Report was prepared and includes all subsequent subdivisions, lot line adjustments or parcel changes therein. Reference is hereby made to the Kern County Assesso/s maps for a detailed description of the lines and dimensions of each lot and parcel of land within the District.

I. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
A. PROPERTIES WITHIN THE DISTRICT
Drainage Benefit Assessment District No. 1B, (Parcel Map 1 1353), will consist of one (1) parcel designated for non-residential purposes.

The purpose of the District is to ensure the ongoing maintenance, operation, and servicing of drainage improvements installed in connection with development of properties within the District. This District will provide the financial mechanism (annual assessments) by which the ongoing operation and maintenance of these improvements will be funded.

The District structure, proposed improvements, method of apportionment and assessments described in this Report are based on current development and improvement plans including all estimated direct expenditures, incidental expenses, and reserves associated with the maintenance and servicing of the improvements.

The District is located within the boundaries of the City of Tehachapi, generally situated along East Tehachapi Boulevard between Dennison Road and Bailey Court.

B. FUNDING AUTHORIZED BY THE 1982 ACT
As generally defined by the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982 and applicable to this District, the City may impose a benefit assessment to finance the maintenance and operation costs of the following services:
1) Drainage;and
2) Flood control.
ln addition to imposing a benefit assessment for the annual maintenance and operation of the District improvements, the City may also authorize an assessment or utilize existing assessment revenue to finance the installation, construction or replacement of drainage and flood control facilities. While such activities are permitted under the 1982 Act, the budget and assessments for this District only provide for normal maintenance and operation of the improvements. Since most major rehabilitation/construction projects result from unforeseen damages, the extent and cost of such projects are not easily predicted and to accumulate funds as part of the normal annual assessments is not practical. lf such funding becomes necessary, the City may present a new or increased assessment to the property owners to support such projects, C. IMPROVEMENTS AND SERVICES
The purpose of this District is to fund the activities necessary to maintain and service the corresponding drainage improvements required of properties within the District. The maintenance and operation of these improvements may include but are not limited to all materials, equipment, labor, and incidental expenses deemed necessary to keep these improvements in satisfactory condition as well as the collection of assessment installments for the periodic service activities, repair or rehabilitation of various improvements and facilities (not capital improvements expenditures or replacement of the drainage infrastructure). ,t{wtLLDAN Page 4

Engineer's Report
Drainage Benefit Assessment District No. '1B
(Parcel Map '1'1353)
Detailed maps and descriptions of the location and extent of the improvements to be maintained by the District are on file with Public Works and by reference are made part of this Repo(. These plans and specifications may be amended or modified from time to time to reflect future property development within the District or necessary changes to the planned developments currently approved by the City. The net annual cost to provide and maintain the improvements determined to be of special benefit shall be allocated to each property in proportion to the special benefits received from those various improvements. The District improvements and services are generally described as follows.

DRAINAGE MAINTENANCE:

The proposed services involve the maintenance and operations of the expansion of the basin. The expansion increases the existing basin of 49,400 square feet by approximately 18,000 (total 67,400) square feet and are as follows:
. Basin maintenance;
. All appurtenant facilities, equipment, materials, and utilities related to the aforementioned improvements; and
o Maintenance and operations of drainage facilities.

City of Tehachapi
Engineer's Report
Drainage Benefit Assessment District No. 1B
(Parcel Map 1 1353)
II. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
The 1982 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing for the maintenance, operation and servicing of drainage and flood control improvements as well as streets, roads, and appurtenant facilities. The 1982 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit ratherthan assessed value:
"The amount of the assessment imposed on any parcel of property shall be related to the benefit to the parcel which will be derived from the provision of the service." Furthermore:
"The annual aggregate amount of the assessment shall not exceed the estimated annual cost of providing the service, except that the legislative body may, by resolution, determine that the estimated cost of work authorized ... is greater than can be conveniently raised from a single annual assessment and order that the estimated cost shall be raised by an assessment levied and collected in installments..., The revenue derived from the assessment shall not be used to pay the cost of any service other than the service for which the assessment was levied."
The method of apportionment described in this Report for allocation of special benefit assessments reflects the composition of parcels within the District and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on the special benefits to each parcel.

A. BENEFIT ANALYSIS
The ongoing maintenance and servicing of the District improvements is an integral part of the use and preservation of the properties within the District and as such confer a particular and distinct special benefit to those parcels. The proper maintenance of the improvements and appurtenant facilities allows individual parcels to be developed and used to their fullest extent by ensuring adequate drainage and proper control of excess water during periods of rain, which is essential to preservation and protection of private property. ln reviewing the drainage analysis prepared in connection with the development of properties in Parcel Map 11353 it was determined that improvements to be maintained through this District are necessary to provide drainage and control of excess water during periods of rain for properties within the District. That analysis indicated that the drainage and flow of excess water during periods of rain from surrounding properties will not be addressed by the District improvements and these improvements are only necessary to mitigate water run-off from the properties in the District. Therefore, it has been determined that these drainage improvements and the maintenance and servicing of such improvements is entirely a special benefit to properties in the District and there is no quantifiable general benefit to properties or the public at large. ,t(wtLLDAN Page 6

Engineer's Report
Drainage Benefit Assessment District No. 1B
(Parcel Map '11353)
B. METHODOLOGY
All costs associated with the improvements and services shall be fairly distributed among the parcels based upon the special benefit received by each parcel. Additionally, in compliance with the California Constitution Article XlllD Section 4, each parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred to that parcel. The method of apportionment established for this District and described herein, reflects the proportional special benefit each property receives from the improvements and services based on the actual or proposed land use of that parcel as compared to other properties within the District. The benefit formula used to determine the assessment obligation for each parcel is based upon both the type of improvements that benefit that particular parcel as well as the proposed land use of each property as compared to other parcels that benefit from those specific improvements.

Upon review of the improvements and the proposed development of properties within the District it has been determined that all properties receive similar special benefits from each of the improvements and services to be funded by annual assessments and a single zone of benefit is appropriate for the allocation of the assessments and proportional special benefit.

EQUIVALENT BENEFIT UNITS:

To assess benefits equitably, it is necessary to relate the different type of parcel improvements to each other.

The Equivalent Benefit Unit ("EBU") method of assessment apportionment uses the single-family home site as the basic unit of assessment. A single-family home site equals one EBU. Every other land use is converted to EBUs based on an assessment formula that equates the property's specific development status, type of development (land use), and size of the property, as compared to a single-family home site, The EBU method of apportioning benefit is typically seen as the most appropriate and equitable assessment methodology for districts formed under the 1982 Act, as the benefit to each parcel from the improvements are apportioned as a function of land use type, size and development.

EBU APPLICATION BY LAND USE:

Single-Family Residential
-
This land use is defined as a fully subdivided residential home site with, or without, a structure or planned single-family residential lot as identified by a submitted or approved tentative tract map or final tract map. This land use is assessed 1.0 EBU per lot or parcel. This is the base value that all other land use types are compared and weighted against (i.e., Equivalent Benefit Unit or EBU).

Multi-Family Residential
-
This land use is defined as a fully subdivided residential parcel that has more than one residential unit developed on the property or planned residential lot as identified by a submitted or approved tentative tract map or final tract map. This land use is assessed 1.0 EBU per dwelling unit.

Developed Commercial- This land use is defined as property developed for either commercial or industrial use. This type of property receives greater beneflt than Single-Family or Multi-Family property due to typically larger lot sizes in relation to residential properties. With typical Single-Family Residential ('SFR') lot sizes at .25 acres, Developed Commercial land use type is assessed at 4.0 EBU per gross acre. Parcels less than .25 acres are assigned a minimum of 1.0 EBU and there is no maximum acreage cap, as is the case with Vacant Non-Residential Property.

Non-Profit Parcels
-
This land use is defined as property developed for non-profit activities such as Churches or Lodges. This type of property does receive benefit from the District improvements but at a rate that coincides with the sporadic intensity of people use for the parcel. Non-profit land use type is assessed at

0.25 EBU per gross acre. Parcels less than 1.00 gross acres are assigned a minimum of 0.25 EBU. ,t{wtLLDAN PageT
City of Tehachapi
Enginee/s Report
Drainage Benefit Assessment District No. 1B
(Parcel Map 1 1353)
Vacant Residential
-
This land use is defined as property currently zoned for residential development, but a tentative or final tract map has not been submitted and/or approved. This land use is assessed at 0.5 EBU per parcel.

Vacant Non-Residential- This land use is defined as property currently zoned for any non-residential use, but a tentative or flnal tract map has not been submitted and/or approved. This land use is assessed at 1,0 EBU per gross acre. Parcels less than 1 gross acre are assigned a minimum of 1.0 EBU. Parcels over 50 gross acres are assigned a maximum of 50 EBU.

Exempt Parcels
-
This land use identifies properties that are not assessed and are assigned 0.0 EBU, This land use classification may include, but is not limited to, lots or parcels identified as public streets and other roadways (typically not assigned an APN by the County); dedicated public easements, open space areas and right-o[ways including greenbelts and parkways; utility right-of-ways; common areas, sliver parcels and bifurcated lots or any other property that cannot be developed; publicly owned properties that are part of the District improvements or that have little or no improvement value. These types of parcels are considered to receive little or no benefit from the improvements and are therefore exempted from assessment.

The following table provides a listing of land use types, land use code designations, the Equivalent Benefit Unit factor applied to that land use type, and the multiplying factor used to calculate each parcel's individual EBU.

The benefit formula applied to parcels within the District is based on the preceding Equivalent Benefit Unit (EBU) table. Each parcel's EBU correlates the parcel's special benefit received as compared to all other parcels benefiting from the improvements.

The following formula is used to calculate each parcel's EBU (proportional benefit) Parcel Type EBU x Acreage/Dwelling Units/Parcel/Lot = Parcel EBU The total number of EBUs is the sum of all individual EBUs applied to parcels that receive a special benefit from the improvement. An assessment amount per EBU (Rate) for each improvement is established by taking the total cost of the improvement and dividing that amount by the total number of EBUs of all parcels benefiting from the improvement. This Rate is then applied back to each parcel's individual EBU to determine the parcel's proportionate benefit and assessment obligation for that improvement.

Total Balance to Levy / Total EBU = Levy per EBU
Levy per EBU x Parcel EBU = Parcel Levy Amount

C. ASSESSMENT RANGE FORMULA
Any new or increased assessment requires certain noticing and meeting requirements by law, Prior to the passage of Proposition 218 (California Constitution Articles Xlll C and Xlll D), legislative changes in the Brown Act defined a "new or increased assessment" to exclude certain conditions. These conditions included "any assessment that does not exceed an assessment formula or range of assessments previously adopted by the agency or approved by the voters in the area where the assessment is imposed." This definition and conditions were later confirmed through Senate Bill 919 (Proposition 218 implementing legislation).

The purpose of establishing an Assessment Range Formula is to provide for reasonable increases and inflationary adjustment to annual assessments without requiring costly noticing and mailing procedures.

Commencing with fiscal year 202312024, the amount of the maximum assessment will increase to adjust for increases in labor and material costs, the maximum assessment rate will correlate with Drainage Benefit Assessment District No. 1. The increase will be based upon the annual change in the Consumer Pnce lndex ('CPl'), All Urban Consumers, for the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County Area, as determined by the United States Department of Labor, or its successor, without conducting another mailed ballot election. The Engineer shall compute the percentage difference between the CPI for February to February and shall then adjust the existing assessment by an amount not to exceed such percentage for the following fiscal year.

Should the Bureau of Labor Statistics revise such index or discontinue its preparation, the Engineer shall use the revised index, or a comparable system as approved by the City Councilfor determining fluctuations in the cost of living.

The Maximum Assessment is adjusted annually and is calculated independent of the annual budget and proposed annual assessment. Any proposed annual assessment (rate per EBU less than or equal to this Maximum Assessment) is not considered an increased assessment, even if the proposed assessment is greater than the assessment applied in the prior fiscal year.

Although the Maximum Assessment will increase each year, the actual assessment may remain unchanged.

The Maximum Assessment adjustment is designed to establish a reasonable limit on assessments. The Maximum Assessment calculated each year does not require or facilitate an increase to the annual assessment and neither does it restrict assessments to the adjusted maximum amount. lf the budget and assessment for the fiscal year do not require an increase, or the increase is less than the adjusted Maximum Assessment, then the required budget and assessment may be applied without additional property owner balloting. lf the budget and assessments calculated requires an increase greater than the adjusted Maximum Assessment, then the assessment is considered an increased assessment and would be subject to balloting. vl/wruDAN Page 9

BACKGROUND
As the Council is aware, the City of Tehachapi regularly constructs federal, and state funded transportation projects administered by Caltrans in conformance with Local Assistance Procedures and Guidelines.

The proposed contract will not exceed three (3) years with two optional (1) one-year extensions or a maximum contract value of (S3,000,000.00).

RFQ RESULTS
The RFQ would allow City Staff to utilize a consultant on-call based on our anticipated workload. The City received (3) three responsive qualification packages:

A panel reviewed the qualified firms and an unanimous decision was made to recommend AECOM Technical Services, lnc.

ADOPTTON OF STAFF CEQA DETERMTNATTON FOR THE 202312024 GRIND AND OVERLAY

PROJECT (E, F, AND PAULEY STREETS)
FROM:

DATE:

SUBJECT

PROJECT BACKGROUND
On May L6,2022, the Council approved a list of capital projects funded by the Senate Bill (SB1) known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2OL7 and adopted a resolution for the Fiscal Year 2022-23. The adopted list resulted in project R23106 The2023/2024 Grind and Overlay Project (E, F and Pauley Streets).

ENVIORNMENTAL
Prior to construction, an environmental assessment for the project site must be undertaken. ln this case, staff determined that this project qualifies as categorially exempt. Historically, CEQA exemptions have been prepared at a staff level. A recent court ruling (Gl lndustries v. City of Thousand Oaks, 2d Civ. No. 8317201) in October 2022clarified that all determinations must be presented at the City Council.

City Staff has reviewed the project site and determined it is consistent with the applicable provisions within CEQA and State guidelines for a Categorical Exemption under Section 1530l-exisiting facilities.

FISCAL IMPACT
The funds budgeted for this project (including Design, Environmental, Construction and Construction Administration) total 5900,000. The project is budgeted for FY22l23 and FY23/24 and is currently on schedule.

RESOLUTION OPPOSING INITIATIVE NO. 2L-OO42AL THE TAXPAYER PROTECTION AND

GOVERN M ENT ACCOUNTABI LIW ACT
DATE:

SUBJECT:

BAGKGROUND
On November 9,2022, the voters in the City of Tehachapi approved a one-cent sales tax increase with 57% approval.

Known as 'Measure S' this roughly $4 million ayeat in increased sales tax revenue was to be dedicated to local control and funding the priorities identified by our citizens which included fire protection, law enforcement, local emergency dispatch, infrastructure like streets and roads and protecting local businesses and jobs.

However, Measure S and 106 other measures statewide that were approved last year are already under threat due to the signature gathering of some of California's wealthiest corporations and lobbyists who have successfully misled voters potentially place the 'Taxpayer and Government Accountability Act' on the November 2024 statewide general election ballot.

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.

The measure would have significant negative impacts on the City of Tehachapi operations and core service delivery.

Specifically, it would retroactively eliminate the local vote/s approval of Measure S since the measure does not have a sunset date. Provisions in this initiative would invalidate measures such as Measure S once the general election results are certified in December of 2024.

The proposed constitutional initiative is sponsored by the California Business Roundtable. The California Business Roundtable is the lobbying arm for some of California's wealthiest corporations who are seeking to reduce their own payments and create constitutional loopholes that allow these corporations to pay less than their fair share for the impacts on localcommunities including local infrastructure and shifting that burden to individualtaxpayers. ln addition, these corporations are seeking to dodge enforcement when they violate environmental, health, public safety and other laws.

The California Business Roundtable Board includes the following corporations:

Aera Energy
Albertsons
Altria
Anthem Blue Cross
Automobile Club of Southern California
Bittle Enterprises (Enterprise Rent-a-Car)
Blackstone
Caruso Management (Rick Caruso)

Many of these corporations do business in our community and are supporting this initiative to undermine the vote of the people in the City of Tehachapi just five months ago.

A full text of the ballot initiative proposed and supported by these corporations is attached to the agenda

MAJOR PROVISIONS
Taxes and fees adopted after Jan. 1, 2022, that do not comply with the new rules, are void unless reenacted (including Measure S in the City of Tehachapi).
lnvalidates Upland decision that allows a majority of localvoters to pass specialtaxes. 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.

Requires voter approval to expand existing taxes (e.9., Utility, Transient Occupancy) to new territory (e.9., annexations) or to expand the tax base (e.9., 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.

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. \A/hether 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."l The standard may significantly reduce the amount large companies (e.9., oil, utilities, gas, railroads, garbage/refuse, cable, and other corporations) will pay for the use of local public property. a Prohibits fees on new development based on vehicle miles traveled

DISGUSSION/ADDITIONAL BACKGROU ND
On January 4,2022, the California Business Roundtable filed the "Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act" or AG#21-OO42A1. On February 1,2023, 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 oppose this initiative.

Local government revenue-raising authority is currently substantially restricted by state stature and constitutional 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 control. a

FEES AND TAXES
The City of Tehachapi along with other local governments levy a variety of fees and other charges to provide core public services and offset the burden to deliver those services to tax and rate payers.

Major examples of affected fees and charges are:
o Nuisance abatement charges such as for weeds, rubbish and general nuisance abatement to fund community safety, code enforcement and neighborhood cleanup.
. Commercialfranchisefees.
o Emergency response fees, such as in connection with a DUl. o Document processing and duplication fees.
o Facility use charges, fees for parks and recreation services, garbage/recycling disposalfees.

Virtually every ci$, 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 Ci$ of Tehachapi's affected fees and charges include:

Water/Sewer lmpact Fees
Franchise fees for cable, phone and waste/recycling services Water entitlement fees
Traffic mitigation fees
Parks impact fees
Police/Civic Facilities fees
Code EnforcemenVChronic Nuisance Fees
Planning review fees
Rather than being paid by the developer, property owner or offending party, the impact of these services would fall on the existing rate payers and tax payers to fund these services.

As previously discussed, hundreds of local tax measures were approved in 2022, including the City of Tehachapi's Measure S and the County of Kern's Measure K, both of which are at risk if this initiative is placed on the ballot and approved by voters since they do not comply with the provisions of the initiative. Nearly $2 billion of annual revenues from these voter-approved measures will cease ayeat 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 tiax revenues have impacts on core services and inftastructure including fire and emergency response, law enforcement, streets and roads, drinking water, sewer, parks, libraries and homeless prevention.

The City of Tehachapi impacted services due to this estimated $4 million decrease in sales tax revenue brought on by this initiative would include, unfilled police officer vacancies, inability to provide competitive compensation for law enforcement a
a
a

and dispatchers. lnabili$ to pay the contracted amount to Kern Coun$ Fire for fire protection services, loss of additional road maintenance funds.
ln addition, this initiative would negatively impact staffing in the development services department as a reduction in fees would result in slower turnaround times for permits, planning and approvals. This estimated impact is $500,000 annually The reduced impact fees for water, wastewater, traffic, water entitlement, franchise fees and service fees would total nearly $1 million annually. Many of these fees would require a new level of "proof' that that are reasonable, opening the City up to extensive legislation in order to charge a developer the true amount of their impact to our infrastructure systems. Other administrative fees are subject to the same scrutiny and implementation, which could cost hundreds of thousands a yeat in legal costs or additional studies.

F!NES AND PENALTIES
Under existing law, cities are required to provide due process before imposing a penalty or fine for violation of its municipalcode:

1. A localagency 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 53069.41.

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 lMerco Construction Engineers v. Los Angeles Unified Schoo/ District (1969) 274 CA 2d 1 54, 1661.

3. The fine may not be "excessive" [U.S. Constitution amendments Vlll and XlVl.

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.

The City of Tehachapi's impacted fines and penalties will include any and all violations of the municipal code, usually tied to code violations, health and safety violations, chronic nuisance violators and other infractions related to building safety, business licenses and refuse/recycling.

FISGAL IMPAGT
The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act will take an estimated $5-$6 million annually from the City of Tehachapi, negatively impacting fire and police services, local emergency dispatch, water and sewer system sustainability among other services. The true impact of this initiative, however, cannot be calculated due to the uncalculated legal costs that would be required to study and re-establish many of these impact and service fees. ln addition, legal review and the costs of additional elections would require even more of an impact to the general fund and current ratepayers.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Council adopt a Resolution opposing lnitiative No. 21-0042A1, the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act and send the attached correspondence to the California Business Roundtable via the League of California Cities.

Fiscal and Program Effects of
lnitiative 21-0042A1 on Loca! Governments
lf lnitiative 21-0042A1 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 lqal 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 lqal peril.l
. 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.
. lndeterminable legal and administrative burdens and costs on local government from new and more empowered legal challenges, and bureaucratic cost tracking requirements. r 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.
o 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, lnitiative 21-OO42A1'.
. 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 initiative would prohibit such measures afier 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. o 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 additionaltax 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 sinceJanuary 7,2022 would be sutrject to possible legal chdlenge 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 of the November 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 -"i".ity voter approvd.
a
O
-2- rev January 14,2023
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 lf 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 declaration of emergency and unanimous vote of the governing board to be placed on a special election ballot within ayeat 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 nerrtr territory (annexations). This would require additional tax measures and would deter annexations and land development in cities. o lf 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 RislC Over a hundred local measures were approved in 2022 that likely do not comply with the provisions of lnitiative 21-OU2A1. 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 lnitiative 21-0042A1due to its retroactivity provision is about $4 billion.

Citizen lnitiative Specia! Taxes in 2O22.

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 lnitiative 21-0042A1.

On June 7 ,2022, there were three local special 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 California Constitution Article XlllC. So this measure was passed in compliance with lnitiative Zl00/'241.

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 lnitiative2l' Of/;2A1. 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 1 06 measures in June 2022 (10) and Novemb et 2022 (96) that do not provide a specific duration of time that the tax will 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 21-0042A1. Taken together, these approved local measures generate $SSl mltlion per year that will expire a year after the efiective date of the initiative if I nitiative 21 -OU2A1 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 yeaf for general city services. The measure was accompanied by advisory Measure Q, accompanied the city's lt asked, "lf 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 lnitiative 21-0A42Al , the tax will expire a yeat 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 lnitiative and placed back on the ballot for the taxes to continue after December 2025. The costs of re-drafting, re-placing and re-voting on these measures, previously legally approved by voters, will be in the tens of millions in total statewide.

2. "Exempt Charqes" (fees and charqes that are not taxes) and Services Threatened With regard to fees and charges adopted after January 1,2022,lnitiative 2'|-OO42A1:
. 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, "reasonable" test. . Allows legal challenge to any tax adopted before the effective date of the initiative and after January 1, 5 The Susanville measure also did not include a specific end date and so is included in the list and totals of those measults.

C al tf o rni aC itgF inance. co wr

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 RislC Mrtually every city, county, and special district must regularly (e.g., annually) adopt increases to fee rates and charges and revise rate schedules to accommodate nanr 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.T 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 DUl.

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 ln addition to service delays and disruptions due to fee and charge revenues placed at greater legal risk, there would be substantial additional costs for legal defense. The risk to fees and charges will make infrastructure financing more difficult and willdeter new residentialand commercialdevelopment. ********t**

The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act [Deleted codifted text is denoted in strikeent. Added codified text is denotedby italics ond underline.l Section L. Title
This Act shall be known, and may be cited as, the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act.

Section 2. Findings and Declarations
(a) Californians are overtaxed. We pay the nation's highest state income tax, sales tax, and gasoline tax. According to the U.5. Census Bureau, California's combined state and localtax burden is the highest in the nation. Despite this, and despite two consecutive years of obscene revenue surpluses, state politicians in 2021alone introduced legislation to raise more than 5234 billion in new and highertaxes and fees.
(b) Taxes are only part of the reason for California's rising cost-of-living crisis. Californians pay billions rnore in hidden "fees" passed through to consumers in the price they pay for products, services, food, fuel, utilities and housing. Since 2010, government revenue from state and local "fees" has more than doubled.
(c) California's high cost of lMng not only contributes to the state's skyrocketing rates of poverty and homelessness, they are the pushing working families and job-providing businesses out of the state. The most recent Census showed that California's population dropped for the first time in history costing us a seat in Congress. ln the past four years, nearly 300 major corporations relocated to other states, not counting thousands more small businesses that were forced to move, sell or close. (d) California voters have tried repeatedly, at great expense, to assert control over whether and how taxes and fees are raised. We have enacted a series of measures to make taxes more predictable, to limit what passes as a "fee," to require voter approval, and to guarantee transparency and accountability. These measures include Proposition 13 (1978), Proposition 62 (1986), Proposition 218 (1996), and Proposition 25 (2010).
(e) Contrary to the voters' intent, these measures that were designed to contro! taxes, spending and accountability, have been weakened and hamstrung by the Legislature, government lawyers, and the courts, making it necessary to pass yet another initiative to close loopholes and reverse hostile court decisions.

Section 3. Statement of Purpose
(a) ln enaAing this measure, the voters reassert their right to a voice and a vote on new and higher taxes by requiring any new or higher tax to be put before voters for approval. Voters also intend that all fees and other charges are passed or rejected by the voters themselves or a governing body elected by voters and not unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats.
(b) Furthermore, the purpose and intent of the voters in enacting this measure is to increase transparency and accountability over higher taxes and charges by requiring any tax measure placed on the ballot1 either at the state or local level-to clearly state the type and rate of any tax, how long it will be in effect, and the use ofthe revenue generated by the tax.
(c) Furthermore, the purpose and intent of the voters in enacting this measure is to clariff that any new or increased form of state government revenue, by any name or manner of extraction paid directly or indirectly by Californians, shall be authorized only by a vote of the Legislature and signature of the Governor to ensure that the purposes for such charges are broadly supported and transparently debated. (d) Furthermore, the purpose and intent of the voters in enacting this measure is also to ensure that taxpayers have the right and ability to effectively balance new or increased taxes and other charges with the rapidly increasing costs Californians are already paying for housing, food, childcare, gasoline, energy, heahhcare, education, and other basic costs of living, and to further protect the existing constitut:onal limit on property taxes and ensure that the revenue from such taxes remains local, without changing or superseding existing constitutional provisions contained in Section 1(c) of Article Xlll A. (e) ln enacting this measure, the voters also additionally intend to reverse loopholes in the legislative twothirds vote and voter approvat requirements br government revenue increases created by the courts including, but not limited to, Connobis Coalition v. City of lJpland, Chomber of Commerce v. Air Resources Board, Schmeer v. Los Angeles County, lohnson v. County of Mendocino, Citizens Assn. of Sunset Beoch v.

Oronge County Local Agency Formotion Commission, and Wilde v. City of Dunsmuir.

AND GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABITITY ACT
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 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 environmen! 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 RESOTVED that the City of Tehachapi opposes lnitiative 27-OO42A7; BE lT FURTHER RESOIVED, that the City of Tehachapi will join the No on lnitiative 27-0042A1, coalition, a growing coalition of public safety, education, labor, local government, and infrastructure groups throughout the state.
