Background: Certain direct charge levies are subject to the Special Taxes Accountability Act as codified in Government Code 50075 et seq. The purpose of the law is for Counties to provide public accountability for their voter-approved special taxes. This law requires levying districts to file an annual report with their Board of Directors to specifically account for their special taxes. General practice provides the County with 6 months to file the report following the end of the fiscal year.
Reason for Recommendation: Environmental Management is submitting the FY2005-06 & FY2006-07 annual reports for the County Service Area #3 special tax revenue. The amount of funds collected and expended within FY 2005-06 was $113,586. The amount of funds collected and expended within FY 2006-07 was $113,500.
The FY 2005-06 report was due on 1/1/07 and the FY 2006-07 report is due on 1/1/08.
Environmental Management was only recently made aware of the law that requires the filing of these reports with the Board of Supervisors and will work to ensure future reports are filed timely. Following the Board of Supervisors receive and file of this report a copy will be forwarded to the Auditor's Office per the direct charge requirements.
Action to be taken following Board approval: Forward a copy of the filed reports to
Environmental Management for distribution to the Auditor's Office.
