REPORT ON THE STATUS OF THE PROPOSED DISSOLUTION
OF THE MOORPARK MOSQUITO ABATEMENT DISTRICT
Discussion: On February 25, 1998, Mayor Hunter and Councilmember Evans, the
Council's Ad Hoc Committee on Moorpark Mosquito District Matters, met with Supervisor
Mikels and administrative officials from the County of Ventura to discuss matters related
to the proposed dissolution of the Moorpark Mosquito Abatement District. Following that
meeting staff has been working with the County to determine an equitable division of
future property taxes now accruing to the MMAD. The division of existing fixed assets and
cash assets between the City and the County are regulated by State law. The division of
future taxes is subject to negotiations between the City of Moorpark and Ventura County,
and an agreement must be approved by both bodies prior to the County Board of
Supervisors being able to take a final action on the dissolution. The current status of the
tax negotiations is provided to the Council under separate cover.
Staff is proposing to file the dissolution application with the Local Agency Formation
Commission on April 16 to allow it to be on the May 20 or June 17 LAFCO agenda
(depending on when County agencies take appropriate actions). The City Council will
need to take a separate action by resolution to approve the negotiated tax split with the
County. The County Board of Supervisors will need to adopt a similar resolution. This
action will need to occur prior to the LAFCO hearing to expedite the process.
Recommendation; That the City Council confirms its prior authorization for staff to file
the Moorpark Mosquito Abatement District dissolution application with the Ventura County
Local Agency Formation Commission and direct the Ad Hoc Committee to continue
discussion with the County on an agreement for future tax allocations.
