SEAL BEACH, CALIFORNIA OPPOSING THE INTRODUCTION
OF BILLS BY THE STATE LEGISLATURE CONTAINING
EXEMPTIONS FROM SENATE BILL 90 REIMBURSEMENT

the 1972 legislature enacted SB 90 (Reagan-Moretti Tax Reform
Program) which among other things, provides that the maximum
proper~ tax rate limitation is the rate levied by a city for
the 1972-73 fiscal year; and
SB 90 provides further that the State is obligated to pay the
full cost of any new state-mandated local programs enacted after
January 1, 1973 (Revenue and Taxation Code Section 2164.3); and
certain Senate and Assembly bills have been and are being intro-
duced containing "state-mandated local programs" and which have
written into them provisions purporting to exempt the bills from
the SB 90 reimbursement provisions, more commonly referred to as
"SB 90 disclaimers;" and

intent of the "Reagan-Moretti Tax Reform Program" and in effect
make the program meaningless and a subterfuge;

hereby expresses its strong opposition to the use of "SB 90 disclaimers" by
Senators and Assemblymen introducing "state-mandated local programs" legislation.

that all Senators and Assemblymen go on record publicly in opposition to the
