Gov. Code, § 64610

(a) Subject to Section 4 of Article XIII A of the California Constitution, and approval by the executive board before the authority takes action to approve the placement of a measure on the ballot, the authority may impose, by resolution, a parcel tax within the San Francisco Bay area pursuant to the procedures established in Article 3.5 (commencing with Section 50075) of Chapter 1 of Part 1 of Division 1 of Title 5, Section 64521, and any other applicable procedures provided by law.

(b) For purposes of this section, “parcel tax” means a special tax imposed upon a parcel of real property at a rate that is determined without regard to that property’s value and that applies uniformly to all taxpayers or all real property within the jurisdiction of the local government. “Parcel tax” does not include a tax imposed on a particular class of property or taxpayers.

(c) The authority shall provide notice of any parcel tax imposed pursuant to this section in the manner specified in Section 54930.

(d) The parcel tax shall be collected in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes are collected and shall be subject to the same penalties and the same procedure, sale, and lien priority in case of delinquency as is provided for ad valorem taxes.
