Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:

June 22, 2021, Resolution 21-087, adoption of FY 2021-22 budget appropriating $700,000 of the Camping Transient Occupancy Tax to recognized fire agencies;

 

May 17, 2022, Item 3(i), acceptance of proposal by the Mendocino County Fire Chiefs Association to distribute $700,000 of FY 2021-22 Camping Transient Occupancy Tax funds evenly among Mendocino County fire agencies.                     

 

Summary of Request

In the March 3, 2020, election, Mendocino County voters passed Measure D, imposing a transient occupancy tax on campers. In that same election, advisory Measure E was passed, advising that 75% of the tax be distributed evenly to the recognized fire agencies of Mendocino County and 25% be spent based on the recommendation of the fire chiefs of the recognized fire agencies in Mendocino County. Pursuant to advisory Measure E, the Board of Supervisors directed that $700,000 be appropriated in the Fiscal Year 2021-22 County budget for recognized fire agencies; this funding was distributed evenly among the fire agencies at the recommendation of the Mendocino County Fire Chiefs Association. Today’s item requests approval for similar appropriation and handling of any additional Camping Transient Occupancy Tax funds received by the County in Fiscal Year 2021-22.
