$400-million spendingcut need told lawmakers

S A C R A M E N T O ( A P > - S t a t elegislators were told Tuesday they wouldhave to make cuts in property tax reliefand school finance proposals — $400million in f ive years, by one estimate.

They were given only two othera l t e r n a t i v e s , both u n a t t r a c t i v e :reductions in state programs, mostlyhealth and welfare benefits for the poor,or a lax increase.

Legislative Analyst A. Alan Post andGov. Edmund Brown Jr. 's f inancedi rec tor , Roy Bell, agreed tha t thepropertylax-schoolfinance package wouldhave to be cut or the state would run out ofmoney within several years.

Neither man said how much of a cutwas needed. The amount of reductionwould depend on how fast other stateprograms and revenues grow and onwhich versions of Ihe -bills are beingdiscussed.

But' according to figures provided byPost and Bell, a deficit would occur undera package backed by the Democraticgovernor by 1980-81, when it would be $225million.

Thai figure would increase lo 5404million the next year and drop to $120million the following year.

Post indicated the likely deficit wouldbe much higher, however. He said thef i g u r e s quo ted were based on anunrealistic assumption that overall statespending could be held lo 10 per centgrowth a year. I t has averaged 19 per centover the last f ive years.

Bell said Monday the administrationwas proposing to limit state spending to 8per cent growth a year, a figure Postcalled even more unrealistic.

Uut Bell agreed that the property tax-

school finance package needed lo be cut.He didn't say how-much of a cut wasneeded, and said the areas of reductionwere up to (he legislature, at least for themoment.

Two conference committees,, eachmade up of three members from eachhouse, are considering rival multibilllon-dollar proposals for homeowner-renterrelief and school finance reform thatcould determine state spending patternsfor years to come.

Brown is backing a property taxproposal that would spend about $4.5billion over five years and a schoolfinance measure of about $5 billion.

Riva l measures on property taxeswould spend more money, primarily forlow-income persons, and include some taxreform plans. The competing schoolfinance proposal would be less expensiveby deleting some reform programs Brownfavors.

Post recommended rertucit ig theproposed property tax re l ie f , which wouldlake Ihe form of rebate checks mailed tohomeowners and renters.

'I think property tax relief goes thewrong way," the legislature's "veteranf isca l adviser told reporters. "Instead, weshould be t ak ing p rograms off theproperty tax base and pay for them at thestate level." '

Some of the properly tax relief money.Post said, should be shifted to the schoolfinance bill to reduce funding inequitiesamong school districts, as required by theslate Supreme Court's Serrano decision.

But pressure for property tax relief isexpected to preserve some form of directstale subsidies lo homeowners in (he billthat Brown eventually signs.

Brown plan would puttight lid on programs

SACRAMENTO ^ A P ) - Gov. EdmundBrown Jr. has issued a tentative spendingplan for the next six years that wouldclamp a tight lid on state programs.'

Brown's finance directqr. Roy Bell,reported to the legislature this week thatIhe Democratic governor was suggestingaverage growth in current slate programsof 8 per cent a year in general fundspending from 1377-78 through 1982-83.

That i nc ludes only $200 mi l l ionadditional each year for expanded or newprograms.

The plan would carry the state to theend of Brown's second four-year term, ifhe is re-elected next year.

The proposed spending lid, Bell said,would leave the max imum amountavailable for property tax relief andschool finance reform, which would not beincluded in Ihe 8 per cent figure. He said itwould also allow a "prudent" surplusequal to 3 per cent of revenues each year.

Krom 1970-71 through 1975-76, stategeneral fund spending averaged morethan a 19 per cent increase, a figureswelled hy a rise of nearly 30 per cent in1973-74, when the state launched a majornew property tax relief program.

This year's overall spending increase isestimated at 14 per cent.

Legislat ive Ana lys t A . ' A l a n Postcri t icized Brown's project ions, andsingled out Bell's estimate that (he stalecould l imi t the growth in health andwelfare spending lo less than 9 per cent ayear.

Spending has grown hy an average of 19per cent in health and 15 per cent inwelfare over the last five years, andBrown has no programs that can beexpected lo slow that growth'. Post said.

Bell conceded that a limit on healthspending was dependent in part onlegislative approval of a Brown-backedproposal for Ihe slate to regulate hospitalrales.
