4. STUDY SESSION  
Study Session items are items for in-depth discussion and possible direction  
to staff. No action will be taken.  
4.1  
SONOMA COUNTY INTEGRATED TRANSIT SERVICE PLAN  
It is recommended by the Transportation and Public Works Department  
that the Council hold a Study Session on the Sonoma County  
Integrated Transit Service Plan recently completed by the Sonoma  
County Transportation Authority (SCTA) in coordination with Santa  
Rosa CityBus, Sonoma County Transit and Petaluma Transit. This item  
is provided for Council’s information and no action will be taken except  
for possible direction to staff.  
4.2  
PROPOSED REVENUE MEASURES  
As part of a broader strategy to address the imbalance in the General  
Fund budget, staff identified revenue enhancement opportunities that  
would have minimal impact to residents of Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa’s  
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) and Business License Tax (BLT) have  
not been updated since 1993 and 1990, respectively. Increasing these  
tax rates would; have minimal impact to Santa Rosa residents, increase  
General Fund revenue significantly, and ensure the continuation of vital  
services to the community. In this study session, staff will provide  
background information on the existing TOT and BLT ordinance and  
provide details of the proposed changes.
