CC - 1974-62 - Revenue Sharing CreditRESOLUTION NO. 74-62
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF ROSEMEAD PROVIDING REVENUE SHARING
CREDIT FOR COUNTY LIBRARY TAXES PAID BY
CITY PROPERTY OWNERS BY ELIMINATING EXIST-
ING TAX AND ESTABLISHING A TAX IN PLACE
THEREOF.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Pursuant to Government Code Section 43073,
the City Council of the City of Rosemead, a city encompassed
entirely within the territory of the hereinafter specified
district, hereby elects to pay to the Los Angeles County Free
Library an amount of money equal to the amount the Library 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 the Library tax on property within the boun-
daries of the city.
Section 2. Pursuant to Government Code section
43073, the City Council of the City of Rosemead, 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 the fiscal year 1974-75 in an 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 Free Library for the
1974-75 fiscal year. The revenue from such tax shall be utilized
solely for the payments described in Section 1 hereof.
Section 3. The City Council of the City of Rosemead
hereby requests that the County Tax Collector list the Los Angeles
County Free Library 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 Library 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 Library.
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 long-standing 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 5. The City Clerk is directed forthwith to
mail a certified copy of this Resolution by certified mail to
the County Auditor-Controller, the County Assessor and the County
Tax Collector.
