74 -65, -concerning the.governmental reorganization of the
City and -the Costa Mesa Street Lighting Energy and Mainte-
nance District.
-The City Council -further finds and declares that said
Ordinances and each of them were passed in an effort to
accomplish, by either means, the functional consolidation or
governmental reorganization, respectively, of the City of
Costa Mesa, a public agency, and both of said Districts,
each of which is also a public agency, pursuant to alterna-
tive'provisions available under -Part 4'of the California
Revenue and Taxation -Code in order to better administer,
finance, and operate the functions and obligations of said
public agencies.
The City Council further finds and declares that said
efforts have been frustrated, due in.part to the noncon-
forming boundaries of the City and said Districts which
necessitate.the creation of complex taxing districts; due in
part .to the time limitations imposed by law upon the City of
Costa Mesa.and said Districts in performing -annexations
required to -conform their boundaries in time to be effective
for the 1975-76 tax year; and -due -in part to the difficulty
in determining the -precise meaning of the above cited -Part 4
.of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, and their
coordination with relevant parts of the California Government
Code within the time limitations -imposed by law. Thus,
compelling said public agencies to rescind and revoke their
prior efforts -immediately in -order that there be no loss of
tax revenue or inadvertent reduction of maximum property tax
rate limits as imposed by Part 4 of the California Revenue
and Taxation Code..
SECTION. 2. The City Council of the City of Costa Mesa.
adopts this.Ordinance as an.urgency ordinance pursuant to
Section: 36934, -California Government Code, the reason in
support of the urgency beingthat the aforementioned Ordi-
nances 74-62, 74-63, 74-64, and 74-65 must be repealed in
order not_to conflict with the resolution setting the annual
tax rate.
