UUT EXEMPTIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
The UUT ordinance exempts or excludes a number of persons and entities from the utility users tax. All persons and entities that are not included in the definition of "person" are excluded from the tax. See Section 3-59.2. All persons and entities that enjoy a constitutional exemption are exempt, including the City, and the State of California and its federal agencies or subdivisions. See Section 3-59.3. Federal credit unions and insurance companies must apply using specific exemption forms (see application forms below). Any other persons seeking exemption from the UUT must submit the general exemption form.
Any service user that is exempt from the utility users tax, other than federal or state agencies or subdivisions with a commonly recognized name, must file an application with the Tax Administrator for an exemption and provide certain kinds of specific information depending on the nature of the exemption. No service user shall be entitled to a refund if he/she fails to file an exemption form with the City of Alameda Finance Department.
The UUT ordinance may also have additional exclusions within each utility category. Please read carefully each ordinance section to see if you are excluded from the tax. If you have any questions, please e-mail finance@alamedaca.gov or send your inquiry to:
