Dear Sir:
The Southern California Gas Company is requesting
authorization from the California Public utilities
Commission to refund certain amounts to its customers
relating, primarily, to refunds received by the Gas
Company from its interstate suppliers. The refund plan
is similar to that used for the refund made in January
1984. The Gas Company expects to make the refund by
credit to bills during December 1984.
Should your City wish to consider refunding the utility
Users' Tax corresponding to this refund amount, the Gas
Company is willing to assist your City by passing that
tax refund on to eligible city residents, including it
with the Gas Company refund during our regular billing
operation in December 1984. However, we are prepared
to assist in making utility users' tax refunds only if
the amount of the tax refund is calculated and
distributed uniformly and the Gas Company is expressly
authorized by your City to offset the tax refunds
through a credit against current utility users' tax
collections. The refund calculations would be based
upon the amount of the utility refund and your City's
April 1984 Utility Users' Tax rate.
If your City agrees to the above approach, please
indicate agreement by having the appropriate City
official sign the enclosed copy of this letter in the
space provided, attaching a Resolution of your City
,Council formally authorizing this agreement and
,.'returned to me by November 23.
