Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:

The BID was established on May 16, 2006, through Ordinance 4170, which added Chapter 5.140 to the Mendocino County Code (MCC).  The Board adopted Ordinance No. 4336 on May 19, 2015 amending Chapter 5.140 of the MCC. On May 16, 2017, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution 17-066 approving the Annual Report as submitted by the BID Advisory Board, and declaring the County’s intention to again levy an annual assessment in the District.  Annually, since 2017, the Board of Supervisors has adopted a Resolution approving the Annual Report for the BID Advisory Board, setting a noticed public hearing date and declaring the County’s intention to again levy an annual assessment in the District.  The most recent meeting of the Board was on May 23, 2023, at which Resolution 23-100 was adopted.                     

 

Summary of Request

To complete the BID assessment process for Fiscal Year 23/24, the Board is asked to adopt a resolution adopting the BID Annual Report.  Adoption of the resolution will adopt the BID Annual Report and levy a 1% gross rent assessment from lodging business within the District (within the boundaries of the unincorporated portion of the County of Mendocino, and the incorporated area of the City of Fort Bragg, City of Point Arena, City of Ukiah and the City of Willits) to be utilized in accordance with the Annual Report.  As provided in Section 36534 & 36535 of the California Streets and Highway Code, this action is to occur after a public hearing in which protests can be heard.  During the Boards May 23, 2023 meeting, there was significant discussion surrounding any potential County match funding to the BID with the acceptance of the Annual Report.  The Board ultimately approved the Annual Report as submitted, but discussed the potential reduction or elimination of the County match funding that may occur as part of fiscal year 2023-2024 budget discussions.
