Gas tax hike bill advances despite Governor’s opposition
Sacramento Assembly committee approved a bill to raise the gasoline tax from seven to nine cents a gallon for highways and rapid transit, potentially yielding 200 million dollars annually starting July 1. The plan, backed by labor and construction groups, would fund rapid transit in multiple California counties, while Brown administration officials argued it breaks a no-general-taxes pledge and cited a department staff cut and construction slowdown.

California Supreme Court OKs Tax Property Seizure Without Hearing
The California Supreme Court ruled that no hearing is required before delinquent taxpayers’ property is seized during the jeopardy tax assessment, though an administrative hearing is available before sale. It allows later injunctions if irreparable harm is shown and the taxpayer is likely to prevail. The case concerns two notices sent by the State Franchise Tax Board on Dec 1, 1973 to Pierre Dupuy of Reseda.
