Bill overview
This bill would allow voters in certain California districts – specifically those with the authority to impose a transportation transactions and use tax – to propose and enact a retail transactions and use tax through an initiative measure. The tax would be limited to the maximum rate set by the district’s governing body and would need to include spending limitations and accountability standards similar to those used for ordinances passed by the governing body. The bill also addresses state reimbursement for any costs imposed on local agencies due to the legislation.
