The California State Board of Equalization (BOE) was established in 1879 by a constitutional amendment. The BOE was initially charged with ensuring county property tax assessment practices were equal and uniform throughout California. Currently, the tax programs administered by the BOE are concentrated in four general areas: sales and use taxes, property taxes, special taxes, and tax appeals. In 2010-11, BOE-administered taxes and fees generated $53.7 billion for essential services for Californians. BOE-administered programs provided approximately 34 percent of the annual revenue for state government, and $9.1 billion in funding for local governments.
BOE-administered revenues support hundreds of state and local government programs and services including public schools and colleges, hospitals and health care, criminal justice, social welfare, consumer services, natural resource management, transportation and housing.
In addition to administering key state revenue programs, the BOE acts as the appellate body for property, franchise, and personal income tax appeals.
