4.1  
SONOMA COUNTY INTEGRATED TRANSIT SERVICE PLAN (THIS  
ITEM HAS BEEN CONTINUED TO THE JULY 23, 2024, REGULAR  
MEETING.)  
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.  
This item was continued to the July 23, 2024 regular meeting.  
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 General 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  
General BLT ordinance and provide details of the proposed changes.  
There are no changes proposed to the separate and distinct BLT  
structure that applies to businesses in the cannabis industry.
