Sec.2-19-105 FINDINGS. <br />(a) The City Council ("Council") recognizes that residentially and non-residentially developed <br />parcels both use police protection services. The Council has, therefore, determined that the tax <br />should be imposed on both residentially and non-residentially developed properties, and that the tax <br />on each type of property should be proportionate to their use of the services. <br />(b) The apportionment of the tax to various types of properties is based, in part, on the intensity <br />of police protection services requested for different kinds of land uses and on the average number of <br />occupants of a parcel of each type of property. The Council fmds that users of residential property <br />typically generate more calls for service from the police department. Therefore, it is appropriate for <br />the residential property owners to bear a higher percentage of the burden on residential properly. <br />(c) The rates are not tailored to individual use both because such tailoring is not administratively <br />feasible and because the City must make police protection services available to all parcels and <br />owners of parcels equally. <br />(d) The Council finds that lower income senior citizen residential property owners may be <br />disproportionately affected by this tax, as a higher proportion of these owners will be on a fixed <br />income. The Council has determined that it is appropriate to permit lower income senior citizen <br />residential property owners to apply to the City for a reduced tax rate. <br />(e) The Council finds that the operators ofnon-profit educational facilities and places of worship <br />operate without a margin for profit and in a manner that provides many community benefits. The <br />Council has determined that owners of property used for non-profit educational uses and places of <br />worship shall be subject to the tax at a lower rate than that charged to other improved parcels. <br />(fl Parcels that are unimproved contain no occupants who may avail themselves of police <br />services, but they generally require some police and fire protection services to protect property and <br />may be the response site of rescue calls to the police department. Accordingly, the Council has <br />determined that owners of unimproved shall be subject to this tax at lower rate than is placed on <br />improved parcels. <br />By approving this Ordinance, the People of the City of San Leandro confirm and adopt these <br />fmdings in this Section 2-19-105. <br />Sec.2-19-110 DEFINITIONS. <br />The following definitions shall apply throughout this Ordinance. <br />(a) "Developed" shall be defined in administrative regulations adopted pursuant to this <br />Ordinance. <br />
