On November 3, 1992, the voters approved an ordinance adding Article 1.16 to Chapter 11 of the Los Angeles Municipal Code, which imposed a Special Police Communications/9-1-1 System Tax for 20 years, commencing in 1993-94 and ending in 2013-14. A total of $235 million in bonds were issued to finance the following: co-location of the downtown Police Communications Center with the Fire Communications Center to a site that provided adequate space for both and allowed for future growth; creation of a San Fernando Valley Communications Center to serve the emergency communications needs of the San Fernando Valley and West Los Angeles; replacement and expansion of the police radio communication system to utilize additional radio frequencies made available by the Federal Communications Commission in conjunction with those frequencies already in use; replacement of obsolete radios and acquisition of mobile data terminals for patrol officers; and, development of a Citywide communications back-up system.
As of September 1, 2013, the lease revenue bonds secured by this special tax have been repaid in full. Though no special tax assessments were levied in 2013-14, the Tax Fund received receipts primarily from tax delinquencies. Pursuant to the Los Angeles Municipal Code, Chapter 2, Article 1.16, Section 21.16.5 (d) any amount remaining in the Special Police Communications/9-1-1 System Tax Fund after all lease revenue bonds issued to finance the System have been repaid in full, shall be used solely and exclusively for maintaining, replacing or improving police communications and dispatch equipment and systems. It is anticipated all remaining receipts will be expended and this Tax Fund will be closed out.

STORMWATER POLLUTION ABATEMENT FUND
The 2017-18 Proposed Budget for the Stormwater Pollution Abatement (SPA) Fund relates to current year funding as follows:
2016-17 Adopted Budget $
55,005,121
2017-18 Proposed Budget
$ 39,908,775
Change from 2016-17 Budget
$ (15,096,346) (27.4%)
Adopted in August 1990, the SPA charge imposes a fee on all properties in the City based on stormwater runoff and pollutant loading associated with property size and land use. The charge is collected by the Los Angeles County Assessor on the annual property tax bill and annual receipts are approximately $28.4 million. SPA funds are used to treat and abate stormwater under the guidelines and regulations set forth by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) for stormwater discharges from large municipal storm drain systems. The SPA Fund also supports the cost of stormwater-related activities in various City departments, offices, and bureaus as well as reimburses the General Fund for a portion of related costs. Funds are also provided for the construction of flood control and pollution abatement projects.
The State of California, Regional Water Quality Control Board, Los Angeles Region (Regional Board) regulates the treatment and abatement of stormwater through a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit. This Permit is issued to the County of Los Angeles, the County Flood Control District, the City of Los Angeles, and 83 other cities in the County that operate their municipal storm drain systems. The latest Permit was adopted on November 8, 2012, and became effective on December 28, 2012.
The MS4 Permit is one of the regulatory tools the Regional Board uses to enforce oversight of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs), which limit the maximum amount of a pollutant that a water body can receive and still meet water quality standards. The City is currently subject to 22 TMDLs, but more TMDLs will be issued to the City by the Regional Board and the U.S. EPA in the next five years. The total cost of complying with all the TMDLs is estimated to be $8 billion over the next 20 years. The MS4 Permit also provides for the development and implementation of Enhanced Watershed Management Programs (EWMPs) that outline strategies, watershed control measures, and implementation schedules to ensure compliance with the MS4 Permit and all TMDLs. The City was the lead agency in the development of the EWMPs for the Upper Los Angeles River, Santa Monica Bay, Ballona Creek, and Dominguez Channel watersheds and participates in the Marina del Rey subwatershed, which the County of Los Angeles is the lead agency. In April 2016, the Regional Water Quality Control Board approved all five EWMPs. The EWMPs will consolidate all aforementioned TMDLs implementation plans into a single plan for each of the City’s four watersheds. New revenue will be required to fund the EWMPs.
Proposition O (Prop O) authorized the issuance of $500 million in general obligation bonds to fund water quality improvement projects. Oversight and direction of the program is provided by a five-member Administrative Oversight Committee (AOC) consisting of representatives from the Offices of the City Administrative Officer, the Chief Legislative Analyst, the Mayor, the Department of Water and Power, and the Board of Public Works. Monitoring of the program is also provided by a nine-member Citizens Oversight Advisory Committee (COAC) consisting of four members appointed by the Mayor and five members appointed by the City Council President. Specific projects to be funded from these bonds are subject to the criteria developed by the AOC and the COAC. Bond funds in the amount of $37 million, $8 million, $101 million, $176.5 million, and $117 million were issued in July 2005, August 2006, August 2008, August 2009, and July 2011, respectively. The total of remaining bonds to be sold is $60.5 million.
Prop O provides funding for the design and construction of water quality improvement projects and does not provide funds for operation and maintenance. Funding for maintenance will be solicited through the City’s annual budgetary process as projects become operational. A dedicated revenue stream will be needed in future years to operate and maintain the facilities constructed with Prop O bond funds. 902
