	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1662, as amended, Portantino. Disaster relief: County of Los
Angeles. 
   (1) Under the California Disaster Assistance Act, the state share
for any eligible project costs is limited to no more than 75% of
total state eligible costs, except for certain occurrences for which
the state share may be up to 100% of the total state eligible costs.
 
   This bill would include as an occurrence for which the state share
may be 100% of the total state eligible costs the severe winter
storms that began in January 2010 in the Counties of Calaveras,
Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San
Francisco, and Siskiyou.  
   (1) 
    (2)  Existing law authorizes a county board of
supervisors to provide by ordinance for the reassessment of property
that is damaged or destroyed, without fault on the part of the
assessee, by a major misfortune or calamity, upon the application of
the assessee or upon the action of the county assessor with the board'
s approval. With respect to certain counties that have adopted
reassessment ordinances and have been declared by the Governor to be
in a state of emergency as a result of certain events, existing law
provides for state allocations of the estimated amounts of the
reductions in property tax revenues resulting in certain fiscal years
from reassessments under those ordinances. Existing law also
continuously appropriates, without regard to fiscal years, moneys in
the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties for purposes of funding
these state allocations.
   This bill would provide for similar state allocations with respect
to property tax revenue reductions resulting from a reassessment for
damages incurred within the  County   Counties
 of Los Angeles  and Monterey  , which  was
  were  declared by the Governor to be in a state
of emergency due to the wildfires that commenced in August 2009
 or   ,   and within the counties of
Calaveras, Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino,
San Francisco, and Siskiyou, which were declared by the Governor to
be in a state of emergency  due to the  severe  winter
storms that commenced in January 2010.
   By requiring moneys continuously appropriated from the Special
Fund for Economic Uncertainties to be allocated for the new purpose
of reimbursing the  County   Counties  of
 Calaveras, Imperial,  Los Angeles  , Monterey, Orange,
Riverside, San Bernardino, San Francisco, and Siskiyou  for
these property tax revenue reductions, this bill would make an
appropriation. 
   (2) 
    (3)  Existing property tax law provides, pursuant to a
specified provision of the California Constitution, for a homeowners'
property tax exemption in the amount of $7,000 of the full value of
a "dwelling," as defined.
   This bill would provide that any dwelling that qualified for the
exemption prior to August 26, 2009, that was damaged or destroyed by
the wildfires in the County of Los Angeles,  and prior to August
27, 2009, that was damaged or destroyed by the wildfires in the
County of Monterey,  and that has not changed ownership since
 August 26, 2009     the commencement
dates of those disasters as listed in the proclamations  , may
not be denied the exemption solely on the basis that the dwelling was
temporarily damaged or destroyed or was being reconstructed by the
owner, or was temporarily uninhabited as a result of restricted
access to the property due to wildfires.
   This bill would also provide that any dwelling that qualified for
the exemption prior to  January 17, 2010   the
commencement dates of the severe storms listed in the Governor's
proclamations of January 2010  , that was damaged or destroyed
by the severe rainstorms, heavy snows, floods, or mudslides that
occurred in the  County   Counties  of 
Calaveras, Imperial,  Los Angeles,  Orange, Riverside, San
Bernardino, San Francisco, and Siskiyou,  and that has not
changed ownership since  January 17, 2010   the
commencement dates of those disasters as listed in the proclamations
 , may not be denied the exemption solely on the basis that the
dwelling was temporarily damaged or destroyed or was being
reconstructed by the owner, or was temporarily uninhabited as a
result of restricted access to the property due to floods, mudslides,
rock slides, or washed-out or damaged roads.
   The California Constitution requires the Legislature, in each
fiscal year, to reimburse local governments for the revenue losses
incurred by those governments in that fiscal year as a result of the
homeowners' property tax exemption.
   This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to make this
required reimbursement in the annual Budget Act. By requiring local
tax officials to implement new exemption criteria, this bill would
impose a state-mandated local program.
   The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
   This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates
determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state,
reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these
statutory provisions. 
   (3) 
    (4)  The Personal Income Tax Law and the Corporation Tax
Law provide for the carryover to specified taxable years of
specified losses sustained as a result of certain disasters occurring
in California in an area determined by the President of the United
States to warrant specified federal assistance, or proclaimed by the
Governor to be in a state of emergency.
   This bill would extend these provisions to losses sustained in the
 County   Counties  of Los Angeles 
and Monterey  as a result of the wildfires that commenced in
August 2009 and  losses sustained in the Counties of Calaveras,
Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San
Francisco, and Siskiyou as a result of  the  severe 
winter storms that commenced in January 2010. This bill would
authorize a taxpayer to make an election to claim a deduction for
those losses on the tax return for the preceding year. 
   (4) 
    (5)  This bill would declare that it is to take effect
immediately as an urgency statute.
   Vote: 2/3. Appropriation: yes. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: yes.
