HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL and TO: TUSTIN REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FROM: CITY ATTORNEY S`U BJECT: PENALTY TAX SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT Our office has received the final Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release from the County of Orange which reflects the previous negotiated settlement of Tustin's and Tustin Redevelopment Agency's lawsuit against the Countyfor a share of the property tax penalties. As you may recall, our office filed a lawsuit on behalf of Tustin, the Tustin Redevelopment Agency and numerous other public entities against the County of Orange for payment of property tax penalty funds withheld by the County. The County of Orange collects the property tax penalties from property owners who are delinquent in paying property taxes. Beginning in 1985-86, the Orange County. Auditor -Controller impounded the tax penalty monies, refusing to distribute them to the various local public agencies' general funds. Following such impound, various lawsuits wer.e,fi.le-d against the County on behalf of the local public agencies within the County -demanding that the property tax penalties be distributed. The lawsuit brought by the City of Anaheim was the first to be heard at the trial level and Anaheim prevailed. The County of Orange filed an appeal. Meanwhile, the County lobbied the State Legislature to enact AB 2372 which provided that the County was entitled to keep all property tax penalties. In addition, the legislation provided that it was to be retroactive as to those counties which had impounded the tax penalty monies prior to the effective date of the legislation. This legislation was passed, resulting in a validation of the County of Orange's retention of the property tax penalties from the year 1985-86, to the present. DAD:cj ♦ :S\1506A Inter -Com Page Two September 24, 1991 The other local public agencies proceeded with their lawsuits on the theory that the legislation could not be retroactive. However, it was our belief, and the belief of the attorneys representing other agencies, that our chances of prevailing were slight. During settlement negotiations, the County offered to pay all local agencies 15% of the property tax penalties. Acting in conjunction, the local agencies countered at 25% and all parties finally settled at 22%. The Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release reflect these negotiations accurately. They provide that Tustin and Tustin Redevelopment Agency will receive 22% of all impounded tax penalties for the years 1985-86, 1986-87, 1987-88 and 1988-89. The amount of money to be received by Tustin is 22% of $74,247, or $16,334. The Tustin Redevelopment Agency is to receive 22% of $54,428, or $11,974. Please place the Agreements on the agendas for the next available meetings of the City and Agency. We recommend that the Agreements be approved and signed and that the signature pages be returned to us for forwarding to the County. JJG. DAVID A.
