LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST SB 425, Hernandez. City of El Monte: maintenance of effort: streets and roads allocations. Existing law imposes a maintenance of effort requirement on cities and counties with respect to receipt of streets and roads funds from gasoline sales tax revenues in the Transportation Investment Fund. Under the maintenance of effort requirement applicable to this now-repealed source of revenues, a city or county was required to maintain annual streets and roads expenditures from its general fund equal to the annual average of its expenditures from that source during the 1996-97, 1997-98, and 1998-99 fiscal years. If a city or county failed to comply with the maintenance of effort requirement in a particular fiscal year, existing law provided that it could alternatively comply by expending in that year and the following fiscal year a combined total amount that is not less than the amount otherwise required to be expended in the 2 fiscal years. Existing law provides specified exceptions to the maintenance of effort requirement for the County of Fresno and the City of Santa Rosa. This bill would give the City of El Monte until June 30, 2021, to meet the maintenance of effort requirement for receipt of streets and roads funds from the Transportation Investment Fund for any fiscal year between 2006-07 and 2010-11, inclusive. The bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the City of El Monte. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. (a) Notwithstanding subdivision (f) of Section 7104.2 of the Revenue and Taxation Code or any other provision of law, the City of El Monte shall have until June 30, 2021, to meet the maintenance of effort requirement applicable to cities in order to receive a streets and roads allocation from the Transportation Investment Fund for any fiscal year between 2006-07 and 2010-11, inclusive. (b) The Legislature finds and declares that a special law is necessary and that a general law cannot be made applicable within the meaning of Section 16 of Article IV of the California Constitution because of the unique transportation funding needs in the City of El Monte.
