FROM: Supervisor Tom Torlakson `'` lra
Introduced March 1, 1988 for wsta
DATE: Board Action on March 8, 1988 County
SUBJECT: NEED TO INCREASE POLICE SPECIAL TAX AREA LEVEL
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECONIIENDED ACTION: Refer to the Finance Committee and the
Sheriff ' s Department a request to raise the level for police special
tax areas from $100/house to the level necessary to sustain a base
level of services that exists today.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The requirement of Special Tax
Areas ( STA' s) for police services was established last year and will
be a major benefit on keeping up with the skyrocketing costs of our
criminal justice system. We included a provision for an annual review
of adjustment based on the results of our own budget process (whether
we were able to fund more patrol services) and CPI factors.
Administration in the Sheriff ' s Department has informed me that the
$100 is now way too low. It needs to be adjusted to meet General Plan
standards as in Oakley' s General Plan. Initial estimates suggest the
level should be set at approximately $200/unit to avoid further
dilution of services.
