RESOLUTION NO. 5206
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA
OPPOSING AB 240 WHICH WOULD PROHIBIT MUNICIPALITIES FROM
IMPOSING BUSINESS LICENSE TAXES ON FOR-fiIRE CARRIERS
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby resolve
as follows:
WHEREAS, the State Legislature is presently considering a
measure known as AB 240 which would prohibit cities from imposing
business license taxes on for-hire carriers unless they have a
fixed place of business within the City, and
WHEREAS, such operations bare no reasonable distinction from
all other business operatives within the City, and
WHEREAS, this measure would not only cause a substantial loss
of revenue to the City of Chula Vista, but would unquestionably lead
to requests from all other types of_ businesses which do not have a
fixed place of business within the City to be exempted from the
business license of the City, and
WHEREAS, the net effect of such measure would lead to a loss
of business license revenue as well as an intent competition for
those businesses which have a fixed place of business but whose main
operation is carried out by field operative.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City
of Chula Vista that the City Council of the City of Chula Vista does
hereby strongly oppose AB 240.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk of the City of Chula
Vista be, and he is hereby authorized and directed to forward certified
copies of this resolution to Senator James Mills, Assemblyman Wadie
Deddeh and to all memebers of the San Diego County Legislative Delegation.
