A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES PROVIDING REVENUE SHARING
CREDIT FOR COUNTY FIRE PROTECTION TAXES PAID BY
CITY PROPERTY OWNERS BY ELIMINATING EXISTING
TAX AND ESTABLISHING A TAX IN PLACE THEREOF
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES RESOLVES AS
FOLLOWS :
Section 1. Pursuant to Government Code Section 43073,
the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes a city
encompassed entirely within the territory of the hereinafter
specified district, hereby elects to pay to the Los Angeles
Consolidated Fire Protection District an amount of money equal
to the amount said District would derive from the imposition of
its tax on all property within the incorporated limits of the
city. Such payment shall be in lieu of the imposition of said
District' s tax on property within the boundaries of the city.
Section 2. Pursuant to Government Code Section 43073,
the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes in order to
generate the funds necessary to make the payment referred to in
Section 1 of this Resolution, hereby establishes a city tax
rate for fiscal year 1976-1977 in the amount equal to the
amount of the rate set by the Board of Supervisors of the
County of Los Angeles for the Los Angeles County Consolidated
Fire Protection District for the 1976-1977 fiscal year . The
revenue from such tax shall be utilized solely for the payment
described in Section 1 hereof.
Section 3 . The City Council of the City of Rancho
Palos Verdes hereby requests that the County Tax Collector list
the Los Angeles County Consolidated Fire Protection District on
the property tax bill or on an accompanying statement, clearly
indicating that the city has elected to include the cost of the
special district service in a city tax rate rather than have
the District impose the tax. This Resolution shall serve as
direction and authorization to the Los Angeles County Auditor-
Controller to transfer the monies collected pursuant to Section
2 of this Resolution to the Los Angeles County Consolidated
Fire Protection District.
Section 4. The adoption of this Resolution in no way
imposes or implies the levy of a city property tax for general
municipal purposes, and is in fact a step which is consistent
with longstanding City Council policy of seeking to maximize
the services provided by the city without the imposition of a
city property tax as a method of paying for such services.
Section 6 . The City Clerk shall certify to the adop-
tion of this Resolution and shall cause the same to be published
as required by law.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 17th day of August,
1976 .
