LEGISLATION: SB 968 (Bergeson)
SUBJECT:
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECO10TE (DATION-
Adopt a position in SUPPORT of SB 968 by Senator Bergeson which
would implement provisions of SCA 19 regarding the implementation
of agreements between cities and counties relating to the split
of sales tax revenue between them.
BACKGROUND:
Under current law, counties and cities may negotiate the manner
in which sales tax is distributed among them. However, before
these agreement are operative they must be approved by the
voters. SCA 19 would remove the requirement that these
agreements be approved by the voters and would authorize the
Legislature to provide for such transfers. SB 968, as amended
May 9, 1989 , implements the provisions of SCA 19 . Specifically,
SB 968 would require that the transfer of sales tax be
implemented by the adoption of ordinances by the cities and
counties involved naming an individual who is authorized to sign
a contract on behalf of the jurisdiction. Once the contract is
fully executed by all involved parties it is forwarded to the
auditor who then distributes sales tax revenue on the basis of
the contract.
In addition, SB 968 streamlines the process for the approval of
property tax exchanges between taxing jurisdictions other than a
city and county by eliminating the requirement that property tax
allocations be approved by the governing board of the city and

county. Each city and county in which an affected tax rate area
is located would be notified of public hearings being held by the
taxing jurisdiction but the property tax exchange would be
effective upon the adoption of ordinances by each of the affected
jurisdictions.
Passage of SB 968 would provide a simpler and more flexible
manner in which cities and counties could discuss and adopt
transfers of sales tax revenue. It is therefore recommended that
the Board of Supervisors indicate its support for SB 968.
