RE: AB 1248 (Bates)
Dear Chairman Longville:
On behalf of the City of Seal Beach, I urge you to oppose AB 1248.
Existing State law authorizes the Board of Supervisors for Orange and Sacramento
Counties to issue revenue bonds to finance improvements to county airport facilities. AB 1248
would prohibit Orange County Board of Supervisors from doing just that. This bill would also
require a third county election regarding an aviation reuse at El Toro MCAS; Orange County
voters have already voted twice in favor of an airport at El Toro.
AB 1248 also ignores the fact that revenue bonds, normally used to finance airports, are
not a repayment obligation to the general taxpayers. It follows that if bond repayment were such
a taxpayer obligation, a voter approval may be appropriate. Since revenue bonds would be repaid
from airport revenue, there is no risk to the taxpayer, and an election should not be required.
Again, I urge your opposition to this bill.
Sincerely,
il '9 '---

bonds, notes, or other evidence of indebtedness or otherwise finance, directly or

RE: AB 1479 (Bates)
Dear Chairman Longville:
On behalf of the City of Seal Beach, I urge you to oppose AB 1479.
Existing law, as approved by Measure A and confirmed by State legislative action, as well as
federal action, designated the Orange County Board of Supervisors as the Local Reuse Authority (LRA)
for the closing and reuse of El Toro MCAS. This bill would change the composition of the LRA to
include any jurisdiction that has general plan and zoning authority over any portion of the base, or
includes any portion of the base in its sphere of influence. If signed into law,the City of Irvine meets the
above criteria and would become a voting member of the LRA.
The majority of the Orange County electorate, through Measure A, approved the current
composition of the LRA. All cities have LRA representation through their respective County Supervisor.
South County cities have seats on the Citizen's Advisory Commission, both as Supervisorial District
representatives and as individual members for the Lake Forest and Irvine seats. To date,these cities have
refused to participate in the planning process through the CAC,as designated by Measure A. By adding
an additional member, the LRA would have an even number of members, leading to a split vote on
virtually every issue.
Given that the voters have already spoken regarding the LRA composition, it is inappropriate for
Sacrament to overturn local action that has been confirmed twice by the Orange County electorate.
I urge you to oppose AB 1479. .
Sincerely,
Paul Yost, Mayor

and 56054.1 to, the Government Code, relating to local government reorganization
LEGISLATTVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 1479, as introduced, Bates. Local government reorganization: military bases.
The Cortese-Knox Local Government Reorganization Act of 1985 prescribes
procedures for a change of organization or reoreanization with respect to an affected
city or affected county, as defined.
This bill would provide that an affected city or county includes a city or county that
contains or would contain part of a military base that is designated for closure, and
would make related legislative findings and declarations.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no Fiscal committee: no. State-mandated local program:
no.
SECTION 1. Section 56001 of the Government Code is amended to read:
56001. (a) Tlie Legislature finds and declares that it is the policy of the state to
encourage orderly growth and development which are essential to the social, fiscal, and
economic well-being of the state. The Legislature recognizes that the logical formation
and determination of local agency boundaries is an important factor in promoting orderly
development. Therefore, the Legislature further finds and declares that this policy should
be effected by the logical formation and modification of the boundaries of local agencies.
(b) The Legislature recognizes that urban population densities'and intensive residential,
commercial, and industrial development necessitate a broad spectrum and high level of
community services and controls. The Legislature also recognizes that when areas
become urbanized to the extent that they need the MI range of community services,
priorities are required to be established regardine the type and levels of services that the

SEC. 2. Section 26400.51 of the Government Code is amended to read.
26400 51. The board of supervisors may issue bonds pursuant to this chapter for the
purpose of financing the acquisition, construction, maintenance, operation,
improvement, and development of property, real and personal, including, but not limited
to, buildings, grounds, facilities, utilities, and structures necessary or convenient for the
promotion or accommodation of air commerce and air navigation. These improvements,
together with any existing or future airport facilities of the county, as the board of
supervisors may determine, may be designated as a project for purposes of this chapter,
and in that event Section 26400.4 does not apply to the issuance of bonds under this
chapter for that project in the County of Sacramento
SEC. 3. Section 50470.5 is added to the Government Code, to read:
50470.5. Notwithstanding any other law, no local agency shall issue bonds, notes, or any
other evidence of indebtedness or otherwise finance, pursuant to this chapter or any
other provision of law, directly or indirectly through any joint powers authority, district,
agency, board, commission, nonprofit corporation or other publicly controlled body, the
acquisition or construction of all or any portion of a publicly owned or operated
commercial or general aviation airport or airport-related facilities within the boundaries
of the former El Toro military facility in Orange County until the board of supervisors of
Orange County, either at a general or a special election held after January 1, 1999,
submits to the electors of the county the question as to whether the project shall be
constructed.
If a majority of the electors voting upon the question vote in favor of the construction of
the project, financing for the project may proceed under any statute or statutes
authorizing that financing.
If a majority of the electors voting upon the question vote against the construction of the
project, financing for the project shall not proceed and the board of supervisors shall not
again submit the question to the electors until a period of at least six months has elapsed
since the date of the last election at which the question was submitted.

residents of an urban community need and desire; that community service priorities be
established by weighing the total community service needs against the total financial
resources available for securing community services; and that those community service
• priorities are required to reflect local circumstances, conditions, and limited financial
resources. The Legislature finds and declares that a single governmental agency, father
than several limited purpose agencies, is in many cases better able to assess and be
accountable for community service needs and financial resources and, therefore, is the
best mechanism for establishing community service priorities.
(c) The Legislature further finds and declares that for the purposes of reuse planning of
a closing military base, the single government agency designated as the Local
Redevelopment Authority under federal law shall include as its members those
jurisdictions with general plan and zoning authority over any portion of the closing
military base because of jurisdictional situs and shall also include as its members those
jurisdictions that have all or a portion of the closing military base in its sphere of
influence.
