The
November 2nd approval of Proposition 1A highlights big questions about the
State-local fiscal relationship. Since the passage of Proposition 13 in 1978,
the fiscalization of local land use decisions has been the order of the day in
many cities, with sales taxes serving as a key source of General Fund revenue.
How will recent ballot measures like Prop 1A and other legislation impact this
state of affairs? Will they stem the growing power of the state over local
government? What do these changes mean for land-use decisions, and what fiscal
tools have been created to help local governments meet local needs?
