9210 Local Government Financing
Major Program Changes
  • Pursuant to the 2011 Realignment, beginning in 2011-12 the Citizens' Option for Public Safety Program, the Juvenile Justice Crime Prevention Act Program, the Booking Fees Program, the Small/Rural Sheriffs' Program, and the Juvenile Probation Program will be funded from the Local Law Enforcement Services Account (LLESA) in the Local Revenue Fund 2011. The current year and budget year LLESA funding amounts for each of these Programs may be found in the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation budget.

    Before the 2011 Realignment, these five Programs were funded with Vehicle License Fee (VLF) revenues. The 2011-12 funding amounts shown in the Local Government Financing budget for these Programs consists only of VLF that was owed by motorists in 2010-11, but that was not paid until 2011-12.

  • The Budget provides $2.1 billion General Fund to retire bonds issued in 2009-10 for the purpose of backfilling property tax revenues borrowed in that year from local governments pursuant to Proposition 1A (2004).

  • The Budget provides $4.4 million to reimburse the counties of Amador and Mono, and the cities located therein, for shortfalls in funding in 2010-11 for their Sales and Use Tax and Vehicle License Fee Adjustment Amounts authorized by Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 97.68 and 97.70.
