PROGRAM GUIDELINES RESIDENT VEHICLE INCENTIVE PROGRAM EXHIBIT 3 As a means to spur growth of the local tax base and to encourage Santa Ana residents to "buy local", the City has developed the Resident Vehicle Incentive Program (VIP) that incentivizes Santa Ana residents to purchase a car and/or truck from one of 10 franchised Santa Ana auto dealers. The VIP provides a $500 rebate to a Santa Ana resident who purchases a new or pre- owned car or truck from a franchised Santa Ana auto dealer. The Program is a new component of the City's existing "Shop Santa Ana" initiative by encouraging residents to continue to buy locally. The VIP has been developed to avoid leakage of local automotive purchases to outside jurisdictions and would ensure that future revenue generated by this sector will be available to provide vital City services. Program Objectives • Reinvest in the local economy. ■ Incentivize residents to shop local. • Avoid leakage of automotive purchases to other cities. • Maintain a strong retail sales base in the City.
