The State Board of Equalization collects taxes and fees that provide more than 34 percent of the annual revenue for state government as well as essential funding for local government. Fees administered by the Board produce funding for programs supporting education, health care, public safety, transportation, social services, housing, and natural resource management programs.
The Board is responsible for the administration of the state's sales and use, fuel, alcohol, tobacco, and other taxes and for the collection of fees that fund specific state programs. More than one million businesses are registered with the agency.
In addition to administering key revenue programs, the Board plays a significant role in California property tax assessment and administration. It also acts as the appellate body for franchise and personal income tax appeals.
Ok....so maybe that wasn't that interesting after all...
