CC RES 1974-049 RESOLUTION NO. 74-49
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES AUTHORIZING APPROPRIATE
OFFICERS OF THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES TO CANCEL
CERTAIN TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS OF THE CITY
WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE CITY ATTORNEY OR
OTHER OFFICER OF THE CITY.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES HEREBY
RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Revenue and Taxation Code Section 4986
of the State of California heretofore provided that no cancel-
lation of any tax or penalties or costs attached thereto, col-
lectable by County officers on behalf of a city, may be made
on the ground that such tax was erroneously or illegally
levied or charged, without the written consent of the city
attorney of the city concerned. Said Revenue and Taxation
Code Section 4986 has now been amended to provide that the
written consent of the city attorney need not be obtained if
the city council, by resolution filed with the Board of Super-
visors, has authorized cancellation by the appropriate County
officers.
Section 2. The City Council finds that at the pres-
ent time no useful purpose is served by requiring the written
consent of the City Attorney for such cancellation in that
the appropriate County officers have the requisite expertise
and the necessary knowledge of the facts with respect to such
assessments or charges to effectuate such cancellations.
Section 3. The appropriate officers of the County
of Los Angeles are hereby authorized to cancel any tax, and
any penalties or costs attached thereto, on the grounds speci-
fied in Revenue and Taxation Code Section 4986 (a) (2) , without
the written consent of the City Attorney or other officer of
the City of Rancho Palos Verdes. This authorization shall
remain effective until rescinded by the City Council and
notice of such rescission to the Board of Supervisors of
Los Angeles County.
Section 4. The City Clerk is hereby authorized
and directed to certify and file a copy of this resolution
with the Board of Supervisors of Los Angeles County.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 2nd day of July ,
1974.
