9210 Local Government Financing

Local governments receive a variety of subventions from the state for designated purposes such as health, welfare, and public safety programs. The state also provides general-purpose revenue to counties, cities, and special districts when special circumstances occur. The Local Government Financing program includes those payments to local governments where the funds may be used for any general government purpose as well as funds for one-time, designated purposes.

MAJOR PROGRAM CHANGES Back to Top
  • General Fund support for the Citizens Option for Public Safety/Juvenile Justice Crime Prevention Act program is reduced by $89.3 million in 2008-09, and eliminated in 2009-10. These reductions will be backfilled from the Local Safety and Protection Account in the amount of $53.8 million in 2008-09, and $191.6 million in 2009-10. Funding for the Local Safety and Protection Account comes from vehicle license fee revenue formerly used to support the Department of Motor Vehicles.
