RESOLUTION NO. 76-139
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUSTIN,
CALIFORNIA SUPPORTING THE CONTINUTATON OF THE ORANGE
COUNTY GENERAL REVENUE SHARING COOPERATIVE PLAN
WHEREAS, General Revenue Sharing has made available a signifi-
cant portion of federal income tax collections for relatively unrestricted
state and local expenditures in a vital partnership approach to urban
problems; and .
WHEREAS, another aspect of this successful relationship has
been the unique Orange County General Revenue Sharing Cooperative Plan
initiated by adoption of a resolution of the Board of Supervisors on
March 13, 1973, which has enabled the appropriation of 50 percent of the
County's allocation to city-county projects that were reviewed by an
Advisory Committee and approved by the Board of Supervisors; and
WHEREAS, to date, over $25-million of County federal revenue
sharing funds have been redistributed to cities on a 50-50 matching basis
under allocation formula guidelines based on each city's assessed valua-
tion and population and the Board of Supervisors' policy for expenditure
of the County's revenue sharing funds of 50 percent for tax reductions,
25 percent for parks, recreation and open space., and 25 percent for social
programs; and o
WHEREAS, without the successful assistance of the Cooperative
Plan, many of the 26 cities which represent 87 percent of the County's
population would have been forced to raise their tax rates to meet the
needs for basic, traditional municipal services and to abandon valuable
environmental, recreational and social service program development; and
. .
WHEREAS, Orange County is soon to receive another substantial
allocation of federal funds with the extension of General Revenue Sharing
through the fiscal year ending September 1980;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the
City of Tustin, California, does again support the County Cooperative Plan,
with proportionate increases to reflect the federal funding levels through
fiscal year 1980, as being'essential to the growth and well-being of all
Orange County.
