Status: in_force

During December, 1978, and December of each subsequent year, after public hearings, the board shall adjust the yield tax rate to the nearest one-tenth of 1 percent in the same proportion that the average rate of general property taxation in the rate adjustment counties in the current tax year differs from the average rate of general property taxation in the rate adjustment counties in the preceding tax year. The board shall compute the average rate of general property taxation in the rate adjustment counties by (a) adding the county, city, school district, and other general taxes, but not the special taxes on intangibles, aircraft, or any other property, which is subject to a uniform statewide tax rate, nor special assessments, and (b) dividing the amount obtained by the total assessed valuation in the rate adjustment counties, exclusive of the homeowners’ and business inventory exemptions, as shown by the county tax rolls for the same year.

“Total assessed valuation,” as used in this section, does not include the assessment of property which is subject to a uniform statewide tax rate.

“Special assessment” as used in this section, means any amount levied solely against land or land and improvements.

When calculating the yield tax rate for the 1981–82 fiscal year, the 1980–81 average rate of general property taxation should first be divided by four.

Section 14139.05
Status: in_force

The Legislature finds and declares that:

(a) Long-term care services in California include an uncoordinated array of categorical programs offering medical, social, and other support services that are funded and administered by a variety of federal, state, and local agencies and are replete with gaps, duplication, and little or no emphasis on the specific concerns of individual consumers.

(b) Although the need for a coordinated continuum of long-term care services has long been apparent, numerous obstacles prevent its development, including inflexible and inconsistent funding sources, economic incentives that encourage the placement of consumers in the highest levels of care, lack of coordination between aging, health, and social service agencies at both state and local levels, and inflexible state and federal regulations.

(c) The office of the Legislative Analyst and others have pointed out that California’s systems of service delivery in a number of areas are dysfunctional, due to the fragmentation of responsibility and funding for interrelated services. Principles proposed by the Legislative Analyst to guide the restructuring of these systems include recognizing program linkages, coordinating service delivery mechanisms, removing barriers to innovation, and instilling financial incentives to promote prevention and coordination.

(d) It is both more efficient and more humane to restructure long-term care services so that duplicative and confusing eligibility criteria, assessments, intake forms, and service limitations will not inhibit consumer satisfaction, impede improvements in consumer health status, and result in the ineffective use of resources.

(e) There is a growing interest in community-directed systems of funding and organizing the broad array of health, support, and community living services needed by persons of all ages with disabilities.

(f) It is in the interest of those in need of long-term care services, and the state as a whole, to develop a long-term care system that provides dignity and maximum independence for the consumer, creates home and community based alternatives to unnecessary out-of-home placement, and is cost effective.
