Annexation No. 1990.06 is a proposal to annex approximately 210 acres of Inhabited land (720 dwelling units) located In the Saugus area, north and east of the existing City limits, south of Copperhlll Drive and generally west of Haskell Canyon Road. (See attached map.) The annexation was Initiated by the City on behalf of property owners requesting City services and local government oversight, and to expand and square up the City boundaries. There are no known persons or organizations opposed to this proposal. On August 25, 1992, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 92-13, approving Prezone No. 90-006 to City zoning classifications R-1-5,000 (Single Family Residential - 5,000 square foot minimum lot size) and RPD -1.6u (Residential Planned Development, one acre minimum lot size, maximum six dwelling units per acre): As a result of the adoption of the Unified Development Code and Zoning Map on November.24, 1992, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 93.7 on March 25, 1993, changing the prezone designation to RL (Residential Low, 2.2 to 3.3 units per acre) and RM (Residential Moderate, 6.7 to 15.0 units per acre). The City Council adopted a Resolution of Application (Resolution No. 92-130) on July 14, 1992, requesting that the LAFCO Initiate annexation proceedings; the annexation application was submitted to the LAFCO for processing on August 21, 1992. ANALYSIS Pursuant to State law, distribution of property tax revenue derived from the area must be negotiated and approved by a joint resolution of the affected agencies (i.e. the City of Santa Clarita and the County of Los Angeles). On November 10, 1992, the LAFCO notified the City that the assessed value for the annexation area exceeded $10 million and the tax transfer would therefore have to be negotiated between the County and the City. (A formula, which was agreed to by the County and the California League of Cities in 1979, Is used to determine the percentage of the property taxes to be transfered when the assessed value of the annexation area is less than $10 million.) City staff met with County staff on September 16, 1993, to negotiate this transfer. % Adopted; ro.__,'S3 „,5+a RESOLUTION NO. 93-137 JOINT RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES AND THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA CLARITA APPROVING AND ACCEPTING NEGOTIATED EXCHANGE OF PROPERTY TAX REVENUE RESULTING FROM "ANNEXATION 1990-06" TO THE CITY OF SANTA CLARITA WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 99 of the Revenue and Taxation Code; prior to the effective date of any jurisdictional change, the governing bodies of all agencies whose service areas or service responsibilities would be altered by such change must determine the amount of property tax revenue to be exchanged between the affected agencies and approve and accept the negotiated exchange of property tax revenues by resolution; but if the affected agency is a special district, the Board of Supervisors must negotiate on behalf of the district; and .

NO. 19901-06 or[urre Ala � �n Ltrarolo fv/7c1 -i to ANNEXATION NO 1990-06 TO THE CITY OF SANTA CLARITA The provisions of the resolution reflect the County's standard language for annexation. Specifically, the attached resolution provides for the transfer of property tax revenue to the City in the amount of $105,252 (5.880/a of the assessed value) for fiscal years commencing on and after July 1, 1994, and an average of 6.02% of the annual tax Increment (ATI) for the 18 Tax Rate Areas (TRAs) within the annexation area thereafter. The resolution also provides for the transfer of all property tax revenue currently received by County Road District No. 5 attributable to this area to the County of Los Angeles. Finally, the resolution contains language pertaining to the adoption of any future redevelopment area which Includes this territory. City staff originally estimated that a share of 8.2% of the ATI would be necessary for the City to break-even for the additional provision of services. However, due to the City's recently reduced cost per capita and the additional gas tax revenues the City will receive as a result of the annexation, staff estimates that the City will break-even with the negotiated transfer discussed above. Upon adoption of Resolution No. 93-137 by the City and the County, proposed Annexation No. 1990-06 can be set for hearing before the Local Agency Formation Commission, tentatively scheduled for November 10, 1993. RECOMMENDATION Adopt Resolution No. 93.137 for transmittal to the LAFCO and action by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. .m.,�uoosrawNr -
