THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. (a) The Legislature finds and declares that California'
s historic buildings are an important asset to communities throughout
the state, and that the preservation and restoration of these
buildings is important to enhancing civic pride, increasing tourism,
and maintaining vibrant neighborhoods.
(b) The Legislature further finds and declares all of the
following:
(1) The federal Historic Preservation Tax Incentives program,
currently available to California's income producing historic
properties, has generated nearly $1.5 billion in investment during
the last 10 years.
(2) While 35 states have similar state tax credits or incentives
for historic preservation, no such incentive exists in California.
(3) States that have partnered a state incentive with the federal
Historic Preservation Tax Incentive have reaped significant economic
development benefits, including construction and building industry
job creation, increased state tax revenues through increased
employment and wages, increased local property tax revenues through
increased property values, and increased local tax revenues through
sales taxes and heritage tourism.
(4) Over the last 10 years, California has had 129 projects
qualify for the federal Historic Preservation Tax Incentives program.
These projects have been located in 20 different counties.
(5) As California communities continue to adjust and adapt to the
dissolution of redevelopment agencies, proven tools are still needed
to incentivize economic development and revitalize economically
distressed areas.
