Background: Assembly Bill 361 (AB 361) authorizes local agencies to use teleconferencing without complying with the teleconferencing requirements imposed by the Ralph M. Brown Act during a declared state of emergency. At a special meeting on October 21, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-36 authorizing continued conduct of City Council and all other City legislative body meetings via teleconference, in accordance with AB 361, due to continued public health and safety concerns caused by COVID-19. Pursuant to AB 361, it is necessary for the City Council to periodically declare that the City’s legislative bodies must continue to meet remotely to ensure the continued health and safety of the public. The City Council most recently ratified the findings of Resolution No. 2021-36 on October 4, 2022. If the City Council determines the need to conduct meetings remotely still exists, the City Council should ratify the findings in Resolution No. 2021-36. Fiscal Impact: There is no fiscal impact associated with this report. Attachments: 1. Resolution No. 2021-36 RESOLUTION NO. 2021-36 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VERNON AUTHORIZING CONTINUED CONDUCT OF CITY COUNCIL AND ALL OTHER CITY LEGISLATIVE BODY MEETINGS VIA TELECONFERENCE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ASSEMBLY BILL 361 (AB 361), DUE TO CONTINUED PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY CONCERNS CAUSED BY COVID-19 SECTION 1. Recitals. A. On March 4, 2020, Governor Newsom declared a State of Emergency to make additional resources available, formalize emergency actions already underway across multiple state agencies and departments, and help the State prepare for a broader spread of COVID-19. B. On March 17, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020-06 ratifying Emergency Proclamation 2020-01, a proclamation of local emergency due to the serious and imminent threat of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19). C. Also, on March 17, 2020, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20, which suspended certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act to allow local legislative bodies to conduct meetings telephonically or by other means. Additionally, the State implemented a shelter-in-place order, requiring all non-essential personnel to work from home. D. The City Council, Commissions and Committees have utilized remote and hybrid meetings during the state of emergency, ensuring the member's and public's continued access to meetings while ensuring public safety. E. On June 11, 2021, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-08-21, which extended the ability of agencies to hold remote meetings through September 30, 2021, after which agencies anticipated transitioning back to public meetings held in full compliance with the Brown Act. F. Since issuing Executive Order N-08-21, the Delta variant emerged, causing a spike in COVID-19 cases throughout the state. G. It is difficult to maintain social distancing requirements for the public, staff, Council Members, Committee Members and Commissioners in their respective meeting locations, therefore, the City of Vernon legislative bodies have utilized a hybrid model of meetings, with some members and the public participating remotely. H. The Proclamation of a State of Emergency issued by Governor Newsom on March 4, 2020 continues to be in effect. Resolution No. 2021-36 Page2of3 I. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newson signed AB 361, allowing local legislative bodies to continue to meet remotely after the September 30, 2021 expiration of the Governor’s executive orders. J. Pursuant to AB 361, it is necessary for the City Council to declare every 30 days that the City’s legislative bodies must continue to meet remotely to ensure the health and safety of the public. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VERNON AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 2. The City Council of the City of Vernon hereby finds and determines that the above recitals are true and correct. SECTION 3. The City Council of the City of Vernon hereby approves the continuation of conducting the City Council and all other City Legislative Body meetings remotely due to continued public health and safety concerns caused by COVID-19. SECTION 4. In compliance with AB 361, and to continue to teleconference without the usual teleconference requirements of the Brown Act, the City Council makes the following findings: a. The City Council has reconsidered the circumstances of the state of emergency; and b. The state of local emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the City Council and all other City Legislative Body meetings, as well as staff and members of the public, from meeting safely in person; and c.

Petrosyan Submitting Department: Health and Environmental Control Department Meeting Date: November 1, 2022 SUBJECT Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) Grants Recommendation: Adopt Resolution No. 2022-36 authorizing the submittal of application(s) for all CalRecycle Grant and Payment Programs for which the City of Vernon is eligible and repealing all resolutions in conflict therewith, specifically Resolution No. 2017-56. Background: Public Resources Code Sections 48000 et seq., 14581, and 42023.1(g) authorize the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) to administer various grant and payment programs in furtherance of the State of California’s (state) efforts to reduce, recycle and reuse solid waste generated in the state, thereby preserving landfill capacity and protecting public health and safety and the environment. Over the past several years, the City has successfully applied for and received funds for the following CalRecycle grants and payment programs: Senate Bill (SB) 1383 Local Assistance Grant - Provides one-time grant funding to support the implementation and regulation requirements associated with SB 1383 such as capacity planning, collection, edible food recovery, education and outreach, enforcement and inspection, program evaluation/gap analysis, procurement requirements, and record keeping. Local Enforcement Agency Grant - Provides grant funds, based on population and solid waste facilities, to local enforcement agencies (LEA) to assist in their solid waste facilities permit and inspection program. Used Oil Payment Program - Provides assistance to local governments to develop and maintain used oil and used oil filter collection/recycling programs. City County Beverage Container Recycling Payment Program - Provides funding to eligible cities and counties for beverage container recycling and litter cleanup activities. CalRecycle’s procedures for administering payment and grant programs require, among other things, an applicant’s governing body to declare by resolution certain authorizations related to the administration of the payment and grant program. On October 24, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution 2017-56 authorizing the submittal of application(s) to CalRecycle for grants and payment programs for which the City is eligible. Although Resolution No. 2017-56 stipulates that the authorization is effective until repealed by the City Council, CalRecycle limits resolution terms to five years. Therefore, a new resolution is required for the City to continue to apply for CalRecycle grants and payment programs. It should be noted that Resolution No. 2021-25 has authorized the Department of Health and Environmental Control to receive and spend payment program funds from CalRecycle and to delegate authority to the County of Los Angeles to apply for and receive funds for the Used Oil Payment Program on behalf of the City. This authorization will continue to remain in effect until repealed by the City Council. Fiscal Impact: Annually the City receives a total of approximately $25,000 in revenue to the General Fund. The grant funds cover the costs for the LEA, Used Oil Payment Program, and City County Beverage Container Recycling Payment Program. Additionally, in Fiscal Year 2021-22, the City received a one-time SB 1383 grant funding of $20,029. Attachments: 1.

MOUSSA, City Attorney City Council Agenda Item Report Submitted by: Michael Earl Submitting Department: Human Resources Meeting Date: November 1, 2022 SUBJECT 2023 Calendar Year Medical, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance, and Employee Assistance Program Proposals for City Employee and Retiree Benefit Plans Recommendation: Approve the Acceptance of the 2023 Calendar Year Medical, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance and Employee Assistance Program Proposals and authorize the City Administrator to execute 2023 calendar year carrier agreements with Blue Shield of California, Anthem, MetLife, EyeMed, Mutual of Omaha, Anthem PRISM EAP, and HSA Bank. Background: Each year, with the assistance of the City’s insurance benefits brokerage and consulting firm, currently Alliant Insurance Services, Inc., the City reviews its various lines of coverage for employees and retirees to ensure that the City is continuously receiving competitive rates. Blue Shield of California currently provides four (4) medical plans for employees and early retirees. For calendar year 2023, Blue Shield of California submitted a proposal with the desired benefits and coverage at competitive rates. The Access+ HMO 15, TRIO ACO HMO 15, PPO Combined Deductible, and HDHP PPO Savings Embedded plans were negotiated between the carrier and broker with final renewal rate increases of 6%. Blue Shield of California has continuously provided the City with competitive rates while maintaining the same level of coverage for employees and retirees. In 2022, the renewal for the HMO plans came in at a 6% increase and the PPO plans at 1%. In 2021, the renewal came in with a reduction in premium of 1.5% for all plans. The City's final negotiated renewal premium rate increases continue to remain below the market trend for comparable plans in the state of California. Furthermore, Blue Shield of California has continuously provided a wellness stipend of $25,000 for which the City may use to offset the costs of providing a variety of programs and services. It is recommended that the City continue to contract with Blue Shield of California for the 2023 calendar year. Anthem currently provides two (2) Medicare plans for retirees. For calendar year 2023, Anthem submitted a proposal with the desired benefits coverage at competitive rates. The Anthem Medicare HMO and the Anthem Medicare PPO were negotiated with a final rate increase of 5%. Anthem has continuously provided the City with competitive rates while maintaining the same level of coverage for Medicare eligible retirees. It is recommended that the City continue to contract with Anthem for the 2023 calendar year. MetLife currently provides two (2) dental plans for employees and retirees. For calendar year 2023, MetLife submitted a proposal with the desired benefits and coverage at the most competitive rates. The Dental HMO plan renewal came in with no changes to the current rates or level of benefits. The Dental PPO renewal rate came in with an increase of 8%. It is recommended that the City continue to contract with MetLife for the 2023 calendar year. Medical Eye Services (MES Vision) was acquired by Essilor Luxottica which is the parent company of EyeMed. There is no change in the premiums for the 2023 plan year. It is recommended that the City contract with EyeMed to provide vision insurance benefits for 2023. Mutual of Omaha provides employees with Basic Life Insurance for the employee and eligible dependents. The proposal submitted by Mutual of Omaha, continues the existing program with no changes to the levels of benefits and guarantees its current rates through December 31, 2024. It is recommended that the City continue to contract with Mutual of Omaha for the 2023 calendar year. Last year, the City added a supplemental Employee Assistance Program (EAP) benefit provided through Anthem PRISM EAP. The renewal for the EAP includes an increase in premium of 5%. It is recommended that the City continue to contract with Anthem PRISM for EAP benefits. HSA Bank has been administering the City's Health Savings Accounts for City employees enrolled in the High Deductible PPO medical plan. Alliant solicited proposals from other banks and health savings account administrators to ensure the City continues to receive competitive service and rates. HSA bank provided the most competitive quote and has agreed to reduce their administrative fees by approximately 22% with no future increases. It is recommended that the City continue to contract with HSA Bank for administration and banking services relating to employee Health Savings Accounts. Following City Council approval of the City of Vernon Renewal Confirmations, the carriers will prepare and deliver the Evidence of Coverage, Summary of Benefits, Group Health Services Contract, and a Renewal Addendum and Amendment to Medicare Advantage Group Agreement, as applicable. These documents are not typically produced until after the effective date of coverage but are based on the agreed upon rates, benefits, and terms included in the City of Vernon Renewal Confirmation notices. Human Resources is requesting that the City Council authorize the City Administrator to execute the required documents upon receipt from the carriers. The City of Vernon Renewal Confirmation notices from the carriers are attached. Fiscal Impact: The total annual estimated premium for all lines of coverage is $5,250,972. The amount will vary slightly based on the enrollment of employees and retirees and their plan selections. Furthermore, the total annual premium is offset by employee and retiree contributions. Below is a breakdown of the approximate cost per line of coverage: Blue Shield of California: $4,643,291 Anthem: $174,786 MetLife: $366,737 EyeMed: $56,198 Mutual of Omaha: $4,275 Anthem PRISM EAP: $3,752 HSA Bank: $1,933 Sufficient funds for this expenditure are available in the Employee Benefits Account for each City Department’s Fiscal Year 2022-2023 budget and will be subsequently budgeted for the remainder of the renewal period.

Alliant Employee Benefits, a division of Alliant Insurance Services, Inc. CA License No. 0C36861 City Council Agenda Item Report Submitted by: Lilia Hernandez Submitting Department: City Administration Meeting Date: November 1, 2022 SUBJECT Report on Agreement Approved by the City Administrator Recommendation: Receive and file the report. Background: In order for the City's Health Department to be recognized by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and be able to exercise its full delegated authority, State law requires that the City petition the CDPH to formalize the roles and responsibilities of the Health Department. The CDPH denied the City's initial petition, and the City continues its efforts for formal recognition. By law, and because the City does not contract with Los Angeles County for health officer services, the City is required to appoint a health officer, who must be a physician. For the past couple of years, the City contracted the services of Dr. Mascola to serve as the City's Health Officer. However, as the City prepares to re-submit its petition to the CDPH, staff has secured the services of the Wellness & Equity Alliance (WEA) to provide health officer services and also to conduct a comprehensive community health needs assessment. Pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code (VMC) Sections 3.32.110 (B)(2) and (3), on October 24, 2022, the City Administrator approved a Master Services Agreement with WEA for health officer services, and a community health needs assessment. The City Administrator found that it is in the City’s best interest to award the contract directly to WEA without a competitive process, and for a term greater than three years, as there are few individuals and/or firms that are able to provide the required services and that are immediately available and able render those services. Additionally, the finding was based on WEA's ability to provide a wider breadth of services at a lesser cost than the City’s former consultant that solely provided health officer services. The WEA model aligns with the City’s goal of seeking CDPH recognition of the City's Health Department and the vision of breaking down access barriers within Vernon's workforce and the surrounding communities. Given the timing, and City’s desire to obtain recognition from CDPH for its Health Department as soon as possible, WEA represents the best option for the City. Pursuant to VMC Section 3.32.220 (B), the proposed Agreement with WEA is for a period of five years (instead of three), as it is commercially unreasonable to rebid the proposed contract in three years for the reasons outlined above. The City Administrator is now providing a report to City Council on his findings and direct award of the agreement as required by VMC Section 3.32.110 (B)(3). In addition to the aforementioned agreement, it is also necessary for the Vernon City Council to take action and formally appoint a Health Officer for the City. Accordingly, the Health Department is seeking adoption of a resolution for the appointment separately, also at the November 1, 2022 Council meeting. Fiscal Impact: The fiscal impact of the agreement approved by the City Administrator with WEA for Health Officer Services and Community Health Needs Assessment is $97,800 over the five-year term of the agreement. Sufficient funds are available in the General Fund, Health Department Account No. 011.1060.595200 f or Fiscal Year 2022-23 and will be budgeted accordingly in subsequent fiscal years. Attachments: None. City Council Agenda Item Report Submitted by: Veronica Petrosyan Submitting Department: Health and Environmental Control Department Meeting Date: November 1, 2022 SUBJECT Appointment of Health Officer for the City of Vernon Recommendation: Adopt Resolution No. 2022-37 appointing Tyler B. Evans, M.D., MS, MPH, AAHIVS, DTM&H, FIDSA of Wellness & Equity Alliance (WEA) as the Health Officer for the City of Vernon. Background: Pursuant to California Health & Safety Code (HSC) 101450, each city is mandated to take measures as may be necessary to preserve and protect public health. As the health officer plays a key part in the duty to safeguard public health, the HSC 101460 also requires each city to appoint a health officer, who must be a physician, unless they contract with the county. As the City does not contract with the County for health officer services, Dr. Mascola was appointed as the Health Officer for the City of Vernon on June 1, 2020 and her appointment was instrumental in the Health Department's ability to maintain partial authority during the COVID pandemic. Now, as the City works toward achieving formal recognition of the Health Department's full delegated authority by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), staff is exploring the feasibility of offering a wider breath of health services for the community. As a first step, the City engaged the Wellness and Equity Alliance (WEA) to provide both health officer services and also to conduct a comprehensive community health needs assessment. Accordingly, on October 24, the City Administrator approved a Master Services Agreement with WEA for the aforementioned services, effective November 1, 2022, at a not- to-exceed amount of $97,800 for a term of five years. WEA is an innovative purposed-driven medical group whose goal is to reimagine public health services accessible to everyone. WEA possesses the necessary breadth of experience in public health and its model aligns with the City’s vision of breaking down access barriers within Vernon’s workforce and the surrounding communities. The position of health officer requires a highly specialized degree of qualifications and expertise, namely a medical degree and experience working in a public health setting. With his various medical certifications, credentials and training in tropical medicine/infectious disease, internal medicine, preventive medicine/public health, and epidemiology, staff recommends the appointment of Tyler B. Evans, MD, MS, MPH, AAHIVS, DTM&H, FIDSA (Dr. Evans), as the City's Health Officer. Dr. Evans is the co-founder of WEA, currently serves as its CEO, and possesses the necessary qualifications and experience to serve as the Health Officer for the City of Vernon. Dr. Evans has worked extensively with vulnerable populations both in the United States (US) and abroad, and has held several physician executive positions in both the private and public sector. Dr. Evans previously served as the Deputy Public Health Officer and chief of the COVID-19 vaccination branch at the Marin County Health and Human Services Agency, and served as the first Chief Medical Officer (CMO) for New York City during the first COVID-19 surge in 2020. Dr. Evans has also held other CMO posts overseeing community health centers focusing on homelessness, substance abuse and migrant health, as well as leading infectious disease divisions in a number of organizations across the US. Dr. Evans serves on a number of boards and executive committees and holds two faculty appointments at the University of Southern California (USC), Keck School of Medicine, Department of Population and Public Health Sciences and University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) with a number of teaching and precepting engagements. If appointed, Dr. Evans would serve as the Health Officer for the City of Vernon, effective November 1, 2022. Fiscal Impact: There is no fiscal impact associated with the resolution appointing Health Officer Tyler Evans. As noted on the Council item report on the related agreement with WEA approved by the City Administrator, there are sufficient funds in the General Fund, Health Department Account No. 011.1060.595200 for Fiscal Year 2022-23 and funds will be budgeted accordingly in subsequent fiscal years.

A.Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code (HSC) Section 101450, each City is mandated to take measures as may be necessary to preserve and protect public health. B.As required by HSC Section 101460, and since the City does not currently contract with Los Angeles County for health officer services, the City must appoint a health officer in order to formalize the roles and responsibilities of the Health Department and exercise its full delegated authority. C.During the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for the City to have its own health officer became indispensable and there remains a vital need for the City to address public health matters occurring within the City’s boundaries. D.On October 24, 2022, the City Administrator approved a Master Services Agreement with Wellness & Equity Alliance (WEA) to conduct a public health community needs assessment and provide health officer services. E.Staff has recommended that Tyler B. Evans, M.D., MS, MPH, AAHIVS, DTM&H, FIDSA (Dr. Evans) of WEA serve as Health Officer for the City of Vernon for a five-year period, effective November 1, 2022. F.The City Council of the City of Vernon desires to appoint Dr. Evans to serve as Health Officer for the City of Vernon.

APPROVED AND ADOPTED November 1, 2022. ______________________ LETICIA LOPEZ, Mayor ATTEST: LISA POPE, City Clerk (seal) APPROVED AS TO FORM: ZAYNAH N. MOUSSA, City Attorney City Council Agenda Item Report Submitted by: Lisa Pope Submitting Department: City Clerk Meeting Date: November 1, 2022 SUBJECT April 11, 2023 General Municipal Election Recommendation: A. Adopt Resolution No. 2022-38 calling and giving notice of an all-mail ballot General Municipal Election to be held on Tuesday, April 11, 2023, for the election of a City Council Member as required by the provisions of the Charter and submitting a ballot measure to the voters to amend Municipal Code Section 3.20.020 extending the Public Safety Special Parcel Tax; B. Determine authors of arguments and rebuttals; C. Direct the City Clerk to transmit a copy of the measure to the City Attorney for preparation of the impartial analysis; and D. Adopt Resolution No. 2022-39 requesting the Board of Supervisors of the County of Los Angeles to render specified services to the City relating to the conduct of a General Municipal Election to be held on Tuesday, April 11, 2023. Background: Pursuant to Vernon Charter Section 5.1 and Municipal Code Section 2.28.020, the City of Vernon conducts all-mail ballot General Municipal Elections on the second Tuesday of April each year. The City Council is required to adopt various resolutions to begin the election process. Resolution Calling the Election The first resolution calls the election on Tuesday, April 11, 2023, for the election of one member of the City Council for a full five (5) year term and to submit a ballot measure to the voters to extend the existing Public Safety Special Parcel Tax an additional five years. Ballot Measure On April 9, 2013, the voters approved Measure L, authorizing the Public Safety Special Parcel Tax for ten years, to fund: (i) City fire protection services and projects, (ii) City health services and projects, and (iii) City police services and projects. Although the City has eliminated the General Fund’s longstanding structural deficit, restored funds to a positive balance, implemented cost-saving measures and strategic actions to contain operational costs, if the special parcel tax was allowed to sunset on June 30, 2023, the City would likely be unable to provide the current level of public safety services. The current tax rate of $0.03683 per square foot, adjusted annually for inflation, is proposed for approval by the voters. In order to pass, the proposed ballot measure requires approval by a two-thirds vote of those casting ballots on the measure. On May 12, 2022, the Business and Industry Commission discussed the need to extend the Public Safety Special Parcel Tax beyond the current expiration date of Fiscal Year 2022-23; concurred with the need to maintain Police services, and retain the tax, possibly resetting the rate; and requested staff bring back additional information. On July 14, 2022, the Commission further discussed the matter and unanimously recommended continuation of the tax. Written Arguments and Rebuttals The Elections Code provides regulations for written arguments and rebuttals, including deadlines for submission. Arguments are due no later than November 15, 2022, and rebuttals must be submitted by November 28, 2022. If the City Council desires to delegate this responsibility to one or two members, it should determine the authors. Impartial Analysis Elections Code Section 9280 provides for preparation of an impartial analysis, showing the effect of the measure, by the City Attorney. The impartial analysis is due the same date as the initial arguments, November 15, 2022. Resolution Requesting County Services The second resolution requests the services of the Los Angeles County Elections Department to provide appropriate forms, and signature verification services, and prepare, print and mail official ballots and ballot materials. Candidate Statement Regulations Elections Code Section 13307 allows candidates to prepare a candidate statement for inclusion in the voter's pamphlet. On October 21, 2014, the Council adopted Resolution No. 2014-64 adopting regulations regarding candidate statements submitted to voters. This resolution applies to the April 2023 election. Ballot Drop-Off Locations In prior elections, the City has offered an additional ballot drop-off location on election day. Staff will consider options for providing the best value for voters and will inform voters of such. Nomination Period The nomination period for the April 11, 2023 Election begins December 19, 2022, at which time candidates may obtain nomination papers and required filing materials from the City Clerk Department. The last day to file nomination papers is January 17, 2023. Council member Davis has served the maximum term limit and cannot run for re-election; therefore, there will be no extension of the nomination period.

Under the provisions of the City of Vernon Charter, a General Municipal Election shall be held on April 11, 2023, for the election of one Municipal Officer. C. On April 9, 2013, the City of Vernon voters approved Measure L, an ordinance authorizing, for a period of ten years, the levy of an annual special parcel tax on non-residential parcels at a rate of $0.03 per square foot (adjusted annually for inflation) to fund: (i) City fire protection services and projects, (ii) City health services and projects, and (iii) City police services and projects (Public Safety Special Parcel Tax).

As used in this section, the following terms have the meanings indicated: 1.“Assessor’s parcel map” means an official map of the Assessor of the County of Los Angeles designating parcels by assessor’s parcel numbers. 2.“CPI” means the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), All Items Index, Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, California Area (1982- 84=100) published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. 3.“Fiscal year” means the fiscal year of the City, which is the period starting July 1 and ending on the following June 30. 4.“Maximum rate” means the maximum rate of the special parcel tax as calculated pursuant to subsection D of this section. 5.“Nonresidential parcel” means any parcel other than a parcel that is improved solely with a residential structure. 6.“Parcel” means a lot or parcel shown on the current applicable assessor’s parcel map with an assigned assessor’s parcel number. 7.“Special parcel tax” means the special parcel tax to be levied pursuant to this section. 8.“Taxable parcel area” means, with respect to a parcel of taxable property and a fiscal year, the square footage of that parcel, excluding square footage that has been apportioned a share of the warehouse tax for that fiscal year. For purposes of this definition, “square footage that has been apportioned a share of the warehouse tax for that fiscal year” shall be calculated for the applicable fiscal year by dividing the amount of the warehouse tax levied against a parcel by the rate per square foot of the warehouse tax. For example, if the amount of the warehouse tax levied against a parcel is $10,000 in a given fiscal year, and the applicable rate of the warehouse tax in that fiscal year is $0.10 per square foot, Resolution No. 2022-38 Page 4 of 7 ________________________ Ordinance No. 1288 Page 2 of 4 _______________________ then 100,000 square feet of the area of that parcel is square footage that has been apportioned a share of the warehouse tax for that fiscal year. 9.“Taxable property” means all of the nonresidential parcels within the boundaries of the City other than nonresidential parcels that: (a) are exempt from the special parcel tax pursuant to the Constitution or the laws of the United States or of the Constitution or the laws of the State of California; or (b) are exempt from the ad valorem property tax or have an ad valorem property tax liability of zero. 10.“Warehouse tax” means the special parcel tax levied by the City pursuant to Section 3.20.010.
