• RESOLUTION NO. 33_ 89
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EL
SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, SUPPORTING PROPOSITION 47 ON
THE JUNE, 1986 BALLOT, WHICH GUARANTEES THE VEHICLE
LICENSE FEE AS A LOCAL GOVERNMENT REVENUE SOURCE.
WHEREAS, the Vehicle License Fee (hereinafter "VLF") has been
• a major source of general fund revenues for local government since
1935; and,
WHEREAS, the California State Legislature gave itself the
authority during the period 1978 to 1984 to withhold funds from
the VLF to balance its own budget; and,
0 WHEREAS, during fiscal year 1981 -1982, state government kept
$270 million of these traditionally local government revenues for
its own use; and,
WHEREAS, during fiscal year 1982 -1983, state government
appropriated $318.1 million to balance its own budget; and,
WHEREAS, during fiscal year 1983 -1984, state government kept
$374.3 million for its own use, for a total loss to local
government of $727.8 million; and,
WHEREAS, during each of those years, the Legislature was
unable to determine how much of these traditionally local
government revenues it would need to balance its own budget until
after the fiscal year began; and,
WHEREAS, such delays in determining how much revenues
ultimately would be available to local government threw the local
government budget planning process into disarray; and,
WHEREAS, the citizens of California's cities, including the
. city of E1 Segundo, and counties are best served when government
is funded through reliable, secure and very predictable revenues,
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EL SEGUNDO,
CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council of the City of E1 Segundo does
