CITY MANAGER COMMENTS
The City Clerk requested Council direction regarding the possibility of election
consolidation with the County of Riverside.
Council consensus was to direct the City Clerk to prepare a full report and
bring back recommendations on the April 23, 1985 agenda.
CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS
Mr. Knight requested that, in the future, rather than using a total number of
days when referring to deadlines, we should use the exact date. This would
make follow-up more efficient.
Mr. Strigotte announced that he attended a joint County/Western Cities meeting
recently. These meetings will be held quarterly in an effort to open communication
between cities and the county. Lake Elsinore will be hosting the next meeting,
scheduled for June 26, 1985 from 7:30 to 9:00 p.m. at the Womens Club on Graham
Avenue. He urged all Councilmembers and City officers to attend. The meeting
will address economic development and discussion of ways to attract industry into
the Western County. Mr. Strigotte requested Council authorization to expend
necessary funds in preparation for this meeting. Council concurred.
Mayor Valenzuela stated she has received several letters from cities in California
regarding AB 724, the Campbell Bill. She read a letter from Rosemead, California,
stating that AB 724 proposes to change the sales tax distribution guidelines which
have been in effect for many years. It would benefit one jurisdiction at the
expense of other jurisdictions. Cities have invested tremendous time and effort
in establishing a sales tax base using the current Bradley/Burns uniform local
sales and use tax law. Changing the rules abruptly would have serious repercussions.
Ctties benefiting most from AB 724 are industrial cities which already have a high
sales tax base and low population. The problem would be better solved through
negotiations between the involved parties rather than through legislation.
