Section 99 (d)) By Resolution 20041594, adopted by the Board of Supervisors of the County of Contra Costa, and by Resolution 12 4-0 4 , adopted by the City Council of Oakley, the County of Contra Costa (County) and the City of Oakley, agree as follows: 1. This Agreement is a master property tax transfer agreement, under authority of Revenue and Taxation Code Section 99 (d) (Section 11, Chapter 801 of the Statutes of 1980), between the County and the City for the purpose of specifying the allocation of property tax revenues upon a jurisdictional change in which the City is an affected City and the County is an affected County. 2. Except for the exclusions specified herein, the jurisdictional change governed by this Agreement are those local agency boundary changes defined in R. &T.C. Section 95 (e) as jurisdictional changes, occurring during the applicable period of this Agreement, where the County is the affected County and the City is an affected City. The following jurisdictional changes are to be excluded from this Agreement: 1) boundary changes involving city incorporations or formations of districts (e.g. reorganizations involving concurrent formation of a special district and annexation to a city), 2)jurisdictional changes which would result in a special district providing one or more services to an area where such services have not been previously provided by any local agency and to which Section 99.01 of the Revenue and Taxation Code applies, 3) jurisdictional changes in which the total of the full values of all property in all tax rate areas comprising the affected territory exceed 110,000,000 a shown on the latest equalized assessment rolls at the time the application is filed with the Local Agency Formation Commission, and 4) any jurisdictional change for which the sales tax revenue from the affected territory exceeds $5,000 for one or more of the three fiscal years preceding the date that the application is filed with the Local Agency Formation Commission. 3. The allocations specified herein (Paragraph 7, below) shall be made for any jurisdictional change governed by this Agreement as specified in Paragraph 2, above, if proceedings for the jurisdictional change have been or are completed after July 1, 2004; provided, however, that in the case of any such jurisdictional change for which proceedings are completed after July 1, 2004 this Agreement shall not apply if either of the parties hereto notifies the other in writing of the non-applicability of this Agreement and Page 1 of 5 Exhibit"A" delivers such notification prior to the date that the petition or resolution for Local Agency Formation Commission approval of the jurisdictional change is accepted for filing by the Commission or its Executive Officer. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, any property tax revenue allocated prior to the date this Agreement is signed by both parties hereto shall not be subject to reallocation, but this Agreement shall apply to all future allocations for the jurisdictional change. 4. For any property tax allocation to be made under this Agreement, the Auditor-Controller of Contra Costa County shall first apply Paragraph 7 herein and first allocate the property tax revenues thereunder for the fiscal year for which the State Board of Equalization makes the tax rate area change(s) for the jurisdictional change. Such fiscal year shall be known as the "initial year" and all later fiscal years shall be known as "subsequent years." Such allocation shall continue indefinitely thereafter unless changed by agreement of both parties hereto or until changed under the terms of this Agreement upon a subsequent jurisdictional change involving one or more of the tax rate areas within the affected territory of the prior jurisdictional change. 5. The following definitions shall apply to this Agreement. The references to code sections in these definitions shall mean the code sections in effect on ,Italy, 1. 2004. a. "Base tax" shall mean those property tax revenues specified as being subject to allocation in R. &T.C. Sections 96.1(x)(1) for fiscal year 2004-05 and later fiscal years. For the fiscal years after the initial year in which property taxes are allocated under this Agreement for a jurisdictional change, the annual tax increment for the prior fiscal year shall be included in the base tax for the succeeding year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, base tax shall not include any property tax revenues allocated to any County free library. b. "Annual tax increment" shall mean those property tax revenues specified as being subject to allocation in R. &T.G. Section 96.1(a)(2) for fiscal year 2004-05 and later fiscal years. Annual tax increment shall include revenues accruing due to the increase in assessed valuation for the preceding fiscal year because of changes of ownership and new construction and because of the inflation adjustment authorized by Section 2 (b) of Article XIIIA of the California Constitution. c. "Annual tax increment allocation factor" shall mean the numerical factor, expressed as a percent, that is used to accomplish the Page 2 of 5 Exhibit "A" proportionate allocation of the annual tax increment, as specified in R. &T.C. Section 96.5. d. "Proceedings" means those actions taken pursuant to Gov. C. Sections 56000 et. seq. e. "Affected territory" shall mean as specified in Gov. C. Section 56015. f. "Affected City" shall mean as specified in Gov. C. Section 56011. g. "Affected County" shall mean as specified in Gov. C. Section 55012. h. "Affected District" shall mean as specified in Gov. C. Sections 56013. 6. Insofar as not inconsistent with the foregoing definitions or any other provisions of this Agreement, the definitions of Sections 95 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, as in effect on July 1, 2004 shall apply to this agreement. 7. For a jurisdictional change for which the allocation of taxes is made under this Agreement, such allocation shall be made in accordance with the following: a) Initial year 1) Base tax. Except as provided in Paragraph 7a. (3) of this Agreement, City shall be allocated 20.77% of the County's base tax for the affected territory and the County shall be allocated the balance. 2) Annual tax increment. Except as provided in Paragraph 7a. (3) of this Agreement, City shall have an annual tax increment allocation factor established for each tax rate area in the affected territory equal to 4.1.55% of the County's annual tax increment allocation factor for the tax rate area. The County's new annual tax increment allocation factor shall be its former factor minus the City's factor as derived in the preceding sentence. 3) For a jurisdictional change which results in the City's providing a service that had been provided by a special district, and if the City thereby receives any property tax revenues of the district as authorized by Revenue and Taxation Code Section 99, the formula for transfer of base tax and annual tax increment allocation: factors from County to City shall be as follows: Page 3 of 5 Exhibit"A" (A) Base tax. A= Bx '/2C D = B—A Where A= the amount of the County's Mase tax to be transferred to the City. This amount plus the base tax transferred from special district(s) becomes the City's initial base tax for the tax rate area. 8 =the County's base tax before the transfer. C = the portion (expressed as a percent) of the County's annual tax increment factor that will be transferred to the City from the County as determined by the formula expressed in Paragraph 7.a. (3) (B) below. D =the County's base tax after the transfer. (B) Annual tax increment. C = (F-H)/(F+G-H) (if"H" is greater than "F", then C shall be zero(0).) J = (ExC) + H K = E--(ExC) Where C = the portion (expressed as a percent) of the County's annual tax increment allocation factor that will be transferred to the City from the County. E = the County's annual tax increment allocation factor before the transfer. F = 8.39% (this is the City's portion of the total fiscal year 2004-05 property tax allocation within the City's boundaries.) G = 11.8010 (this is the County's portion of the total fiscal year 2004-05 property tax allocations within the City's boundaries.) Page 4 of 5 Exhibit "A" H = the total of the annual tax increment allocation factors which will be transferred to the City from special districts in accordance with Revenue and Taxation Code Section 99. - J = the City's annual tax increment allocation factor after the transfer allocation. K= the County's annual tax increment allocation factor after the transfer calculation. b. Subsequent years. In each subsequent year City's and County's allocation of property taxes from the affected territory will be made as set forth in Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 95.1 and 96.5. Each agency each year will be allocated its base tax(i.e. the tax allocated to the agency in the preceding year including the previous year's annual tax increment) plus its share of the current year's annual tax increment for the affected territory, such share being calculated by multiplying the tax resulting from growth in assessed valuation in the affected territory during the year times the agency's annual tax increment allocation factor(s) for that territory as determined in Paragraph 7a (2) or 7a (3) (B) above. The result (i.e. base plus increment) becomes the base tax for the next year's tax allocation calculations. Each agency's base tax and annual tax increment allocation factors may be subsequently modified only through negotiated exchanges in accordance with Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 99 and/or 99.011 for subsequent jurisdictional changes.
