COUNCIL TO DISCUSS LA COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT 
PARCEL TAX An Unfunded Mandate

On Tuesday at the request of City Councilmember John Capoccia 
will discuss the adoption of a special parcel tax that would 
be assessed at two and one-half cents ($0.025) per square foot of 
impermeable surface upon all parcels located in the Flood Control 
District (exempting government owned parcels, Antelope 
Valley parcels, and low income/senior citizens as determined by 
the Board of Supervisors.) 

The special parcel tax is estimated to bring in approximately 
$300 million dollars per year. Fifty-percent would be used for 
regional projects, forty-percent would be allocated to municipal 
projects, and ten-percent would be used by the Flood Control 
District for administrative efforts and support of the program.
