The rectangularly -shaped territory is located in the Sand Canyon area, approximately 1600 feet south of Soledad Canyon Road and one quarter mile east of Sand Canyon Road. (See attached map for location.) The City Council adopted a resolution of application (Resolution No. 89-63) for this proposal on June 13, 1989, requesting that the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) begin annexation proceedings. The annexation was submitted to the LAFCO for approval in July, 1988. The attached resolution provides for the transfer to the City of property tax revenue in the amount of 5.8 percent of the annual tax increment (ATI) attributable to the annexation area commencing on and after July 1, 1991. It provides for the transfer from the City to the Consolidated Fire Protection District (CFPD) of property tax revenues in the amount of 17 percent of the ATI. It further provides that all property tax revenue received by Road District No. 5 attributable to this area shall be transferred to the County of Los Angeles. Finally, it provides language pertaining to the adoption of any future redevelopment area which includes this territory. Pursuant to state law, distribution of property tax revenues derived from the area must be negotiated and approved by a joint resolution of the affected agencies, in this instance the City and the County. The tax split proposed herein is not the result of City -County negotiations, but is derived from a mathmatical formula agreed to in 1979 by the County and the California League of Cities. County policy is to use this formula when the assessed valuation (AV) of Agenda Item: L. 0 PA the property to be annexed does not exceed ten million dollars ($10,000,000),,and to enter special negotiations only for AVs which exceed this amount. The AV for the property in Annexation No. 1989-04 is $0 (FY 89-90). (The property was formerly owned by UCLA, a state entity, and so no AV or property taxes were assessed in previous years.) The remaining provisions of the resolution reflect the County's standard "boilerplate" language for annexation. It should be noted that an incremental increase in the demand for residential City services would occur as a result of this annexation. Typically, the cost of such services over the long-term would not be offset by property tax revenues received by the City for the annexed property. Upon adoption of Resolution No. 90-23 by the City and the County, proposed Annexation No. 1989-04 can be set for hearing before the Local Agency Formation Commission. RECOMMENDATION 1. Adopt Resolution No. 90-23, approving the- property.tax transfer for Annexation No. 1989-04. 2. Direct staff to submit Resolution No. 90-23 and eight certified copies to the Local Agency Formation Commission for action by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors.
