RESOLUTION NO. 7984
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH OPPOSING THE
INTRODUCTION OF BILLS BY THE STATE
LEGISLATURE CONTAINING EXEMPTIONS FROM
SENATE BILL 90 REIMBURSEMENT PROVISIONS
WHEREAS, the 1972 Legislature enacted SB 90 (Reagan -
Moretti Tax Reform Program) which among other things provides
that the maximum property tax rate limitation is the rate
levied by a city for the 1972 -73 fiscal year; and
WHEREAS, SB 90 provides further that the State is
obligated to pay the full cost of any new state - mandated local
programs enacted after January 1, 1973 (Revenue and Taxation
Code Section 2164.3); and
WHEREAS, certain Senate and Assembly bills have
been and are being introduced containing "state- mandated
local programs" and which have written into them provisions
purporting to exempt the bills from the SB 90 reimbursement
provisions, more commonly referred to as "SB 90 disclaimers;"
and
WHEREAS, the "SB 90 disclaimers" are in direct
conflict with the spirit and intent of the "Reagan- Moretti
Tax Reform Program'! and in effect make the program meaning-
less and a subterfuge;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council
of the City of Newport Beach hereby expresses its strong opposi-
tion to the use of "SB 90 disclaimers" by Senators and Assembly-
men introducing "state- mandated local programs" legislation.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Newport Beach urges that all Senators and Assembly-
men go on record publicly in opposition to the practice of
using "SB 90 disclaimers" and that the Governor veto all bills
containing such language.
