It is next scheduled for hearing before the Resolutions Committee. Resolution No. 71 supports legislation to provide that property taxes in areas newly annexed to cities undeveloped prior to annexation will be distributed in a manner similar to the distribution of property taxes within areas already located within the annexing city. As amended by the Committee on Revenue and Taxation, Resolution No. 71 also apportions property tax revenues to include low and "non-sharing" property tax cities to receive not less than ten percent (10%) as an equitable allocation from annexed areas. Inasmuch a5 the Legislative battle to correct property tax distribution inequities continues, it is imperative that California cities take action now to insure that all local agencies will receive a fair and equitable share of this revenue. On behalf of the City Council of the City of Carson, I urge you to take immediate action in support of League of California Cities Resolution No. 71. Very truly yours, CITY OF CARSON $eA+ KAC:RC:dr CITY HALL - 701 EAST CARSON STREET P.O. BOX 6234 CARSON, CALIFORNIA 90749 (213)830-760<
