OVERVIEW
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
May 19, 2000
Dear Shareholder,
Whether you have held your Trust for years or just joined the Van Kampen family
of shareholders in the last few months, you are likely to have questions and
even some concerns about how recent market volatility has affected your
investment. I encourage you to review the following Q&A in which your portfolio
manager provides an update on how your Trust is being managed in this
environment.
It is times like these when money-management experience may make a difference.
Toward that end, you should know that Van Kampen is one of the nation's oldest
investment-management firms, with a history of money management dating back to
1926. Our portfolio managers have invested in all types of market
conditions--during bull and bear markets, periods of inflation and rising
interest rates, and now a technology revolution. We have managed money long
enough to understand short-term market volatility and the value of investing for
the long term.
As we head into the second half of 2000, count on us to
continue to draw on the wisdom of our 76 years of experience.
Along those lines, Van Kampen's "Generations of Experience" is
the theme of a national advertising campaign that kicked off
this spring. The message emphasizes our depth of
investment-management history, as well as our firm belief that with the right
investments, anyone can realize life's true wealth.
Sincerely,
[SIG]
Richard F. Powers, III
President and CEO
Van Kampen Investments

ECONOMIC SNAPSHOT
ECONOMIC GROWTH
ECONOMIC GROWTH REMAINED STRONG, PRIMARILY DUE TO ACTIVE CONSUMER AND BUSINESS
SPENDING. GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT, THE PRIMARY MEASURE OF ECONOMIC GROWTH,
INCREASED AT AN ANNUALIZED RATE OF 5.4 PERCENT IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2000.
WHILE THIS FIGURE INDICATES A MODEST SLOWDOWN FROM THE PREVIOUS TWO QUARTERS, IT
NEVERTHELESS REPRESENTS A HIGH RATE OF ECONOMIC GROWTH.
CONSUMER SPENDING AND EMPLOYMENT
INFLATION FEARS CONTINUED TO MOUNT BECAUSE OF STRONG CONSUMER SPENDING AND THE
TIGHT LABOR MARKET. FOR MOST OF THE REPORTING PERIOD, RISING INTEREST RATES DID
LITTLE TO REIN IN ROBUST CONSUMER SPENDING. ALTHOUGH RETAIL SALES GROWTH
MODERATED IN APRIL, THE FACTORS UNDERPINNING CONSUMER ACTIVITY REMAINED LARGELY
UNCHANGED--RISING WAGES, LOW UNEMPLOYMENT, AND A GENERALLY FAVORABLE (THOUGH
VOLATILE) STOCK MARKET.
IN ADDITION, THE JOBLESS RATE HOVERED NEAR ITS LOWEST LEVEL IN THREE DECADES.
THE EMPLOYMENT COST INDEX ACCELERATED SHARPLY IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2000,
REFLECTING RISING WAGES AS EMPLOYERS VIE TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN SKILLED WORKERS.
THESE WAGE PRESSURES, IN TURN, BEGAN TO AFFECT PRICES, AS COMPANIES STARTED TO
RAISE THE COST OF GOODS AND SERVICES TO COMPENSATE FOR HIGHER LABOR COSTS.
INTEREST RATES AND INFLATION
STRONG GDP DATA, CONSUMER SPENDING, AND EMPLOYMENT PROMPTED THE FEDERAL RESERVE
BOARD TO SEEK TO SLOW THE PACE OF ECONOMIC GROWTH AND WARD OFF INFLATION. THE
FED INCREASED THE FEDERAL FUNDS RATE BY 0.25 PERCENT FIVE TIMES BETWEEN JUNE
1999 AND APRIL 2000. [EDITOR'S NOTE: THE FED RAISED RATES BY 0.50 PERCENT ON MAY
16.] DESPITE THE FED'S CONCERNS, THE CONSUMER PRICE INDEX, A MEASURE OF
INFLATION, ROSE A MODERATE 3.0 PERCENT DURING THE 12 MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30,
2000.

Q&A WITH YOUR PORTFOLIO MANAGERS
WE RECENTLY SPOKE WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ADVISER OF THE VAN KAMPEN
CALIFORNIA VALUE MUNICIPAL INCOME TRUST ABOUT THE KEY EVENTS AND ECONOMIC FORCES
THAT SHAPED THE MARKETS DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS. THE REPRESENTATIVES INCLUDE
JOSEPH A. PIRARO, PORTFOLIO MANAGER, WHO HAS MANAGED THE TRUST SINCE 1993 AND
WORKED IN THE INVESTMENT INDUSTRY SINCE 1971. THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS REFLECT THE
REPRESENTATIVES' VIEWS ON THE TRUST'S PERFORMANCE DURING THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
APRIL 30, 2000.
Q WHAT WERE THE MOST IMPORTANT
DEVELOPMENTS IN THE FIXED-INCOME MARKETS DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD?
A Generally higher interest rates,
sparked by inflation worries, set the tone for the fixed-income markets during
the past six months. As the economy continued its strong advance, the markets
reacted warily to signs of potential inflationary pressures--such as rising
employment costs, healthy job growth, strong consumer spending, and spikes in
commodities prices, especially oil. These concerns fueled a steady sell-off
through the fourth quarter of 1999 and into January 2000.
To slow the economy and keep prices from rising, the Federal Reserve Board
gradually pushed short-term interest rates higher, raising the fed funds rate (a
key short-term lending rate) three times between November 1999 and April 2000.
(Editor's note: On May 16, 2000, after the reporting period ended, the Fed
raised rates a fourth time.)
In times of rising interest rates, bond prices trend downward. Add to that
the lingering effects of the Year 2000 (Y2K) computer scare early in the first
quarter of 2000, and you can see why this was a challenging period for many
fixed-income investors.
Q HOW DID THE MUNICIPAL
BOND MARKET REACT TO THESE CONDITIONS?
A Not surprisingly, higher interest
rates hurt municipal bond prices, but we believe there's always opportunity in
the market. In the past few months, we've actually seen some fairly significant
price swings--both up and down--as investors tried to anticipate the Fed's next
move and the direction of interest rates. The market was weak in late 1999 and
early 2000, but we had a nice rally in February and March, which tapered off in
April.
The strong economy has bolstered the financial condition of many
municipalities across the country, so the pace of new municipal bond issuance
dropped sharply (about 40 percent) from a year ago. With their coffers full,
municipalities haven't needed to turn to the bond market for financing. Also,
6
<PAGE> 8
higher interest rates made it more difficult for issuers to refund outstanding
bond issues, which has been a source of new investment opportunities in the
past.
Q HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE
CALIFORNIA'S ECONOMIC AND MUNICIPAL MARKET ENVIRONMENT DURING THE PERIOD?
A A broad-based economic expansion
continued to bolster fiscal positions and led to increases in reserves.
California outpaced the rest of the country in terms of employment and income
growth.
Despite rising interest rates, there is still strong demand for housing,
driven by limited supply in the state. Lack of affordable housing remains a
long-term concern, as the average purchase price of a single-family home in
California is now 153 percent of the U.S. average, while per-capita income
levels are only 104 percent of the national average. Our analysts will continue
to monitor the housing market for signs of overbuilding or a "speculative
bubble" similar to those in the early 1990s.
In the first quarter of 2000, issuance of new California municipal bonds was
down 30 percent to $4.4 billion compared to the first quarter of 1999. However,
an additional $4.5 billion in state general-obligation bonds was approved by
voters in the March 2000 elections, and California continues to lead the nation
in the issuance of municipal bonds.
Q WHAT STRATEGIES DID YOU FOLLOW
IN MANAGING THE TRUST?
A Strategically, we've been moving in
a new direction since early this year. We made the decision to manage the Trust
relative to a new benchmark, rather than the Lipper peer group, which meant that
we needed to make some adjustments to the Trust's structure. The Trust's
benchmark is now the Lehman Brothers California Municipal Bond Index with
maturities greater than five years. Specifically, we increased the duration of
the portfolio (a measure of its sensitivity to changes in interest rates) to
more closely track the performance of the new benchmark index. The benchmark
provides the shareholder with general municipal market returns, and the
leveraged structure provides the opportunity for enhanced dividends.
Fortunately, the municipal bond market played into our hands and gave us
some excellent opportunities to implement this new strategy. Beginning in late
January, we began purchasing deeply discounted bonds for the Trust. These were
securities that were issued a year or so ago with coupons of 4.75, 5.00, or 5.25
percent. As interest rates went up over time, these bonds began selling at a
deep discount, with some priced as low as 80 cents on the dollar.
At the same time, the Trust held a number of older, prerefunded issues with
higher coupons in the 5.75 to 6.00 percent range. Such prerefunded issues tend
to decrease the duration of a portfolio because they have shorter
7
<PAGE> 9
lives than their stated maturities. But because of their attractive coupons,
these bonds were trading at a premium, presenting us with an opportunity to
capture some solid gains. Because these bonds were scheduled to be called or
refunded within the next year or two, we chose to sell them while their
demand--and therefore their market price--was high.
This combination of buying deep-discount bonds and selling prerefunded
issues enabled us to lengthen the duration of the portfolio without drastically
altering the income stream that the Trust will be earning over time. While we've
seen a slight decline in portfolio income in the short run, the deeply
discounted bonds enabled us to purchase more par value per dollar invested.
Q WHAT AREAS OF THE MUNICIPAL
MARKET WERE MOST ATTRACTIVE TO YOU?
A Our philosophy is to seek bonds
that we feel represent the best values compared with similar offerings in the
marketplace. During the past six months, we did not specifically target one area
of the market over another, although we did maintain significant concentrations
in the transportation and utility sectors, each of which represented more than
11 percent of the portfolio's long-term investments.
Many of our portfolio management decisions were based on pricing issues,
such as the availability of deep discounts, or structural issues, such as
extending duration or maintaining adequate call protection and diversification
for the portfolio. As always, we invested the Trust's assets selectively,
looking for solid names, sector opportunities, or attractive price to coupon
situations. For additional portfolio highlights, please refer to page 4.
Q HOW DID THE TRUST PERFORM
DURING THE PERIOD?
A For the six-month period ended
April 30, 2000, the Trust returned 4.48 percent based on market price. This
reflects an increase in market price from $13.6875 per share on October 31,
1999, to $13.8750 per share on April 30, 2000. By comparison, the total return
of the Trust's peer group (as represented by the Lehman Brothers California
Municipal Bond Index) was 2.69 percent for the same period.
The Trust's dividend remained unchanged at $0.0700 per share throughout the
reporting period. This monthly tax-exempt dividend translates to a distribution
rate of 6.05 percent based on the Trust's closing common stock price on April
30, 2000.
Because the Trust is exempt from federal and California income taxes, this
distribution rate is equivalent to a yield of 10.43 percent for an investor in
the 42 percent combined federal and state income-tax bracket. Please refer to
the chart and footnotes on page 3 for additional performance results. Past
performance is no guarantee of future results.
8
<PAGE> 10
Q WHAT DO YOU SEE AHEAD
FOR THE ECONOMY AND THE MUNICIPAL MARKET?
A All eyes will be on the key
economic statistics, such as GDP growth, employment costs, and the unemployment
rate. These figures measure the economy's strength and rate of growth and may
influence whether the Fed will continue to raise short-term interest rates. We
expect that the inflation rate may increase, but it's likely to remain in a
moderate range for the near term. It's anticipated that the Fed will continue to
increase short-term rates by the end of the summer, perhaps by more than 0.50
percent. Higher interest rates will, in turn, put pressure on the municipal
market in the short run.
Increased stock-price volatility in April has increased investor skepticism,
but investors continue to see price pullbacks as opportunities to buy
aggressive-growth stocks. It may take a much deeper, more sustained decline in
these stocks to convince investors to rethink their asset allocation decisions.
If the stock market does fall sharply, we could see a flight to quality, as
investors pursue investments that typically carry less risk. Such conditions
might benefit investment-grade municipal bonds.
Low municipal-bond supply could continue throughout 2000, especially if
interest rates trend higher, as expected, throughout the first half of the year.
Overall, the lower supply of bonds should help to shore up prices, as demand
remains strong. Investors can tolerate periodic price swings if they keep
long-term perspectives and continue to value the steady stream of tax-exempt
income that municipal bonds provide. As always, we will rely on our strong
research efforts to evaluate opportunities in the marketplace and identify
securities that may offer superior investment potential and value over time.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
A HELPFUL GUIDE TO SOME OF THE COMMON TERMS YOU'RE LIKELY TO SEE IN THIS REPORT
AND OTHER FINANCIAL PUBLICATIONS.
CREDIT RATING: An evaluation of an issuer's credit history and capability of
repaying obligations. Standard & Poor's and Moody's Investors Service are two
companies that assign bond ratings. Standard & Poor's ratings range from a high
of AAA to a low of D, while Moody's ratings range from a high of Aaa to a low of
C.
DISCOUNT BOND: A bond whose market price is lower than its face value (or "par
value"). Because bonds usually mature at face value, a discount bond has more
potential to appreciate in price than a par bond does.
DURATION: A measure of the sensitivity of a bond's price to changes in interest
rates, expressed in years. Each year of duration represents an expected 1
percent change in the price of a bond for every 1 percent change in interest
rates. The longer a bond's duration, the greater the effect of interest-rate
movements on its price. Typically, funds with shorter durations perform better
in rising rate environments, while funds with longer durations perform better
when rates decline.
INFLATION: A persistent and measurable rise in the general level of prices.
Inflation is widely measured by the Consumer Price Index, an economic indicator
that measures the change in the cost of purchased goods and services.
MATURITY DATE: The date a bond expires, usually at face value.
MATURITY LENGTH: The time it takes for a bond to mature. A bond issued in 1999
and maturing in 2009 is a 10-year bond.
PREREFUNDING: The process of issuing new bonds to refinance an outstanding
municipal bond issue prior to its maturity or call date. The proceeds from the
new bonds are generally invested in U.S. government securities. Prerefunding
typically occurs when interest rates decline and an issuer replaces its
higher-yielding bonds with current lower-yielding issues.
YIELD SPREAD: The additional yield investors can earn by either investing in
bonds with longer maturities or by investing in bonds with lower ratings. The
spread is the difference in yield between bonds with short versus long
maturities or the difference in yield between high-quality bonds and lower-
quality bonds.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Van Kampen California Value Municipal Income Trust (the "Trust") is registered
as a diversified closed-end management investment company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust's investment objective is to provide
a high level of current income exempt from federal and California income taxes,
consistent with preservation of capital. The Trust will invest in a portfolio
consisting substantially of California municipal obligations rated investment
grade at the time of investment. The Trust commenced investment operations on
April 30, 1993.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. SECURITY VALUATION Municipal bonds are valued by independent pricing services
or dealers using the mean of the bid and asked prices or, in the absence of
market quotations, at fair value based upon yield data relating to municipal
bonds with similar characteristics and general market conditions. Securities
which are not valued by independent pricing services are valued at fair value
using procedures established in good faith by the Board of Trustees. Short-term
securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.
B. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS Security transactions are recorded on a trade date
basis. Realized gains and losses are determined on an identified cost basis. The
Trust may purchase and sell securities on a "when-issued" or "delayed delivery"
basis with settlement to occur at a later date. The value of the security so
purchased is subject to market fluctuations during this period. The Trust will
maintain, in a segregated account with its custodian, assets having an aggregate
value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued or delayed delivery
purchase commitments until payment is made. At April 30, 2000, there were no
when-issued or delayed delivery purchase commitments.
C. INVESTMENT INCOME Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Bond
premium is amortized and original issue discount is accreted over the expected
life of each applicable security.

D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES It is the Trust's policy to comply with the requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.
The Trust intends to utilize provisions of the federal income tax laws which
allow it to carry a realized capital loss forward for eight years following the
year of the loss and offset such losses against any future realized capital
gains. At October 31, 1999, the Trust had an accumulated capital loss
carryforward for tax purposes of $3,065,943, which will expire between October
31, 2002 and October 31, 2003.
At April 30, 2000, for federal income tax purposes cost of long-term
investments is $145,432,339; the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation is
$5,009,473 and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation is $1,564,124,
resulting in net unrealized appreciation on long-term investments of $3,445,349.
E. DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME AND GAINS The Trust declares and pays monthly
dividends from net investment income to common shareholders. Net realized gains,
if any, are distributed annually on a pro rata basis to common and preferred
shareholders. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may
include short-term capital gains, which are included as ordinary income for tax
purposes.
2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND
OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Under the terms of the Trust's Investment Advisory Agreement, Van Kampen
Investment Advisory Corp. (the "Adviser") will provide investment advice and
facilities to the Trust for an annual fee payable monthly of .65% of the average
net assets of the Trust. In addition, the Trust will pay a monthly
administrative fee to Van Kampen Funds Inc. or its affiliates (collectively "Van
Kampen"), the Trust's Administrator, at an annual rate of .20% of the average
net assets of the Trust. The administrative services provided by the
Administrator include record keeping and reporting responsibilities with respect
to the Trust's portfolio and preferred shares and providing certain services to
shareholders.
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Trust recognized expenses of
approximately $2,000 representing legal services provided by Skadden, Arps,
Slate, Meagher & Flom (Illinois), counsel to the Trust, of which a trustee of
the Trust is an affiliated person.
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Trust recognized expenses of

legal services to the Trust.

auction process. The rate in effect on April 30, 2000 was 4.200% and for the six
months then ended rates ranged from 2.650% to 5.880%.

liquidation value for the remarketing efforts associated with the preferred
auctions. These fees are included as a component of Preferred Share Maintenance
expense.
