1983-11 RESOLUTION NO. 83- 11
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
GRAND TERRACE, CALIFORNIA, OPPOSING PROPOSED
LEGISLATION TO RE-ALLOCATE REVENUE GENERATED FROM
VEHICLE CODE VIOLATIONS.
WHEREAS, there is proposed legislation which would re-allocate revenue
generated from vehicle code violations, taking money away from the cities and
the State to reimburse the County fully for the costs of operating its
Municipal and Justice Courts; and
WHEREAS, the Municipal and Justice Court System already collects more
revenue than its combined General Fund appropriations; and
WHEREAS, such legislation would enrich the County's General Fund at
the expense of cities ' ability to provide the law enforcement service and code
enforcement which actually produces the revenue; and
WHEREAS, further County attempt to seek this controversial State
legislation would waste hundreds of additional hours of staff time fighting
over such a clear issue, thus further jeopardizing relationship with its 17
cities;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE its opposition to State legislation which would re-allocate
revenue generated from vehicle code violations.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED this Council urges the County Board of
Supervisors to consider the impact of such re-allocation on other affected
entities and discontinue any further attempt to obtain this legislation.
ADOPTED THIS 24th day of March, 1983.
