BILL NUMBER:  AB 1098
  VETOED	DATE: 09/19/2012




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 1098 without my signature.

AB 1098 would reallocate vehicle license fee revenues to recently
incorporated cities that annexed inhabited territory.

As drafted, this bill would undermine the 2011 Realignment formulas
in a manner that would jeopardize dollars for local public safety
programs, provides cities new funding beyond what existed under
previous law, and would create a hole in the General Fund to the tune
of $18 million.  Given the current fiscal uncertainties, this is not
acceptable.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
