of the gross receipts of the retailer from the sale of all
tangible personal property sold at retail in the City on
and after the operative date of this chapter.

retailer, unless the tangible personal property sold is
delivered by the retailer or his agent to an out-of-state
destination or to a common carrier for delivery to an out-
of-state destination. The gross receipts from such sales
shall include delivery charges, when such charges are sub-
ject to the state sales and use tax, regardless of the place
to which delivery is made. In the event a retailer has no
permanent place of business in the state or has more than
one place of business, the place or places at which the
retail sales are consumated shall be determined under rules
and regulations to be prescribed and adopted by the Board
of Equalization.
(b) (1) Except as hereinafter provided, and except
insofar as they are inconsistent with the provisions of
Part 1.5 of Division 2 of the said Revenue and Taxation
Code, all of the provisions of Part 1 of Division 2 of
said Code, as amended and in force and effect on April 1,
1956, applicable to sales taxes are hereby adopted and
made a part of this section as though fully set forth herein.
(2) Wherever and to the extent that, in Part
1 of Division 2 of said Revenue and Taxation Code, the
State of California is named or referred to as the taxing
agency, the City of Anaheim shall be substituted therefor.
Nothing in this subdivision shall be deemed to require the
substitution of the name of the City of Anaheim for the

word "State" when that word is used as part of the title
of the State Controller, the State Treasurer, the State
Board of Control, the State Board of Equalization, or
the name of the State Treasury, or of the Constitution of
the State of California; nor shall the name of the city
be substituted for that of the state in any section when
the result of that substitution would require action to
be taken by or against the city or any agency thereof,
rather than by or against the State Board of Equalization,
in performing the functions incident to the administration
or operations of this chapter; and neither shall the sub-
stitution be deemed to have been made in those sections,
including, but not necessarily limited to, sections refer-
ring to the exterior boundaries of the State of California,
where the results of the substitution would be to provide
an exemption from this tax with respect to certain gross
receipts which would not otherwise be exempt from this
tax while those gross receipts remain subject to tax by
the state under the provisions of Part 1 of Division 2 of
the same Revenue and Taxation Code; nor to impose this tax
with respect to certain gross receipts which would not be
subject to tax by the state under the said provisions of
that Code; and, in addition, the name of the city shall
not be substituted for that of the State in Sections 6701,
6702 (except in the last sentence thereof), 6711, 6715,

retailer under Section 6067 of the said Revenue and Taxa-

receipts by which the tax is measured:
(i) The amount of any sales or use tax
imposed by the State of California upon a retailer or con-
sumer.
(ii) Receipts from sales to operators of
common carriers and waterborne vessels of property to be

(i) The amount of any sales or use tax
imposed by the State of California upon a retailer or con-
sumer.
(ii) The gross receipts from the sale of
tangible personal property to operators of waterborne
vessels to be used or consumed principally outside the
city in which the sale is made and directly and exclu-
sively in the carriage of persons or property in such
vessels for commercial purposes.
(iii) The gross receipts from the sale of
tangible personal property to operators of aircraft to be
used or consumed principally outside the city in which the
sale is made and directly and exclusively in the use of
