HomeMy WebLinkAbout04-311 - ResolutionsRESOLUTION NO. 04-311 A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING PROPOSITION 1A WHEREAS, State government currently seizes more than $5.2 billion annually in local property tax funds statewide, costing local governments more than $40 billion in revenues over the past 12 years; and, WHEREAS, these ongoing shifts and raids by the State of local property tax funds and other funding dedicated to cities, counties and special districts have seriously reduced resources available for local public safety, roads, parks, libraries and other essential local services; and, WHEREAS, this drain of local resources has continued even during periods when the State's budget has been overflowing with surpluses as well as during difficult economic times; and, WHEREAS, Proposition 1A is a historic measure that will appear on the November 2004 statewide ballot that would limit the State's ability to take and use local government funding; and, WHEREAS, by protecting local government funding, Proposition 1A would protect essential local services such as public safety; and, WHEREAS, Proposition 1A will not raise taxes and, in fact, will help reduce pressure for local fee and tax increases by limiting State raids of local government funding; and, WHEREAS, Proposition 1A does not reduce funding for schools or any other State program or service, and Proposition 1A was carefully written to allow flexibility in the event of a State budget emergency; and WHEREAS, Proposition 1A is supported by a bi-partisan, diverse coalition including Governor Schwarzenegger, Democrat and Republican legislative leaders, local government officials, public safety representatives, healthcare, business, labor and community leaders. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga that the City of Rancho Cucamonga hereby expresses strong support for Proposition 1A, the statewide ballot initiative that will prevent the State from further taking local government revenues; and, RESOLVED FURTHER, that we will send a copy of this resolution to Yes on 1A — Californians to Protect Local Taxpayers and Public Safety.
