RECOMMENDATION(S):

1. FIX public hearing for February 27, 2018, at 9:30 a.m., to receive public input regarding the adoption of an ordinance authorizing an increased special tax for police protection services in County Service Area (CSA) P-5 and a resolution directing the ordinance to be presented to the CSA P-5 voters for approval at the June 5, 2018, primary election.

2. DIRECT the Clerk of the Board to give notice of the hearing pursuant to Government Code sections 50077, subdivision (a), and 6062a.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No impact to the General Fund. The cost of publication will be paid with CSA P-5 funds.

BACKGROUND:

The CSA P-5 Citizens Advisory Committee is proposing a special tax increase measure for the June 5, 2018, ballot. If passed by two-thirds of the CSA P-5 voters voting on the measure, the measure would provide additional funding for extended police protection services within the boundaries of this county service area, located in the Round Hill area. Under the proposal, revenues from the increased taxes would be used to preserve current service levels, including two resident deputy sheriffs and maintenance of a patrol vehicle.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The public hearing date would not be fixed or noticed. Without a noticed public hearing, the proposed tax measure could not be presented to the voters.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.
