Orange County: Proposition 218, Proposition 26 and Rate Setting Workshop
Friday, February 24, 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

On November 2, 1996, the California voters approved Proposition 218, which amended the California Constitution by adding new substantive and procedural requirements for the adoption of taxes, assessments, and property-related fees and charges. On November 2, 2010, the voters approved Proposition 26, another ballot initiative that further restricts the ability of the state and local governments to raise revenues to fund government services, facilities, and programs, by reclassifying certain fees and charges as taxes. This workshop will provide an update on recent cases and legislation interpreting and clarifying Proposition 218. Additionally, it will provide an overview of the provisions of Proposition 26 and the impacts that it may have on local governments and their ability to raise revenues.
