COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
AGENDA TITLE: Authorize the Mayor, on Behalf of the City Council, to Send a Letter of
Opposition to Senate Bill 625 (Wright) Transient OccupancyTax (TOT)
Collection
MEETING DATE: June 16,2010
PREPARED BY: Konradt Bartlam, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Authorize the Mayor, on behalf of the City Council, to send a letter
of opposition to Senate Bill 625 (Wright) Transient OccupancyTax
(TOT) Collection.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City was asked by the League of California Cities (League) to
oppose SB 625 (Wright) and send a letter of opposition regarding
the same to specific members of the Legislature.
SB 625 is sponsored by online travel companies. While actual bill language remains unavailable,
legislative staff had informed the League that SB 625 was going to be amended and thereby thwart cities'
abilities to collect the full TOT due to cities from online travel companies. Once amended, the bill will be
referred to the Assembly Revenue and Taxation Committee.
TOT is a significant source of revenues for the 400 cities that levy it. On average, TOT accounts for
nearly 8 percent of a city's general fund revenues. This special-interest legislation threatens a significant
revenue source at a time of fiscal uncertainty. Therefore, a number of cities have already opposed SB
625 and many others are in the process of doing so.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable at this time.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable at this time.

SIBJECT: Notice of Opposition — SB 625 (Wright) Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) Collection
Dear Senator/Assembly Member:
On behalf of the City of Lodi, we request your strong opposition to any legislation that would
undermine the ability of our City to fully collect local Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) from online
sales.
It has come to our attention that online travel companies are proposing to gut and amend a bill and
insert language that would undercut TOT collection. We understand that the identified vehicle for this
legislation will be SB 625 (Wright), which will soon be amended in the Assembly. The proposal is
intended to pre-empt the outcome of pending litigation in California and other states regarding whether
online travel companies must remit the full TOT owed to the local agency. The industry has also
repeatedly tried to seek similar legislation at the federal level and has been rebuffed.
Online travel companies such as Expedia, Hotels.com, Travelocity and others collect TOT on the
price the customer pays for the room but only remit the tax to the City based on the discounted
wholesale room rate the online travel company pays to the hotelier. These online travel companies
retain a portion of the tax they collect, claiming that it is a part of the fees they collect on their sale
of the hotel room. In reality, the online hotel company is retaining tax dollars that are owed to the
local agency.
The City of Lodi receives approximately $400,000 of General Fund revenue from TOT. These funds
are very important to our community and support vital local services.
Our City has already had to make significant cuts because of declining revenues. State budget
takeaways and deferrals have only compounded the issue.
We ask for your strong opposition to any effort to undermine our local revenues by legislative action.
The legal dispute over the duty of online companies to remit the full amount of TOT owed to local
agencies is already in the courts. That is where the issue should remain.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
Sincerely,
Phil Katzakian
Mayor
