After 20 years 100% of the taxes go to the City. At the end of 25 years from the approval date of the contract 100% of sales tax goes to the City. regardless of the date the new businesses begin operations. In return for the tax allocation agreement, the City commits to provide fire protection, law enforcement, water supply, and wastewater management services. Presently, the City is authorized through the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFC0) to provide fire, water, and wastewater service, The City will submit a request to LAFCO to allow for the delivery of law enforcement services. The City has been providing water and wastewater services to the Donut Hole for decades, and fire protection service to the Donut Hole since January 1, 2003. Until the City is authorized by LAFC0 to provide and actually does provide law enforcement services to the Donut Hole, the City shall receive 80% of the sales and use tax, with the County receiving 20% of such taxes. The term of the contract shall commence on the date it has been approved by both the City and the County, and terminate on December 31, 2003, unless the qualified voters of the City approve an Initiative Ordinance and consent to the extension of the term of the contract beyond December 31, 2003. If the qualified voters of the City approve the Initiative Ordinance and consent to the extension beyond December 31, 2003, the contract shall continue in full force and effect until the later of: (a) the date on which all of the property comprising the Donut Hole has become annexed to the City; or (b) August 12, 2028, at which time the contract shall terminate. On August 5, 2003, acting as lead agency under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City of Redlands approved an Addendum to the City of Redlands General Plan Master Environmental Assessment and Final Environmental Impact Report (MEA/Final EIR) as the environmental determination for the proposed contract. The Addendum is on file with the Clerk of the Board. Staff recommends that the Board rely on the analysis in the City's Addendum and adopt the following findings as a CEQA responsible agency: FINDINGS: 1. The potential environmental effects of the proposed contract have been evaluated in an Addendum to the City of Redlands General Plan Master Environmental Assessment and Final Environmental Impact Report (MEA/Final EIR) (SCH #91022067) approved by the Redlands City Council on August 5, 2003. The Addendum was prepared in accordance with Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines, including a finding that none of the conditions described in Section 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines requiring preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred, The Addendum concludes that all potentially significant effects of the proposed contract have been analyzed adequately and will be avoided or mitigated pursuant to the previously certified MEA/Final EIR.
