Measure "G" Information
Measure G is a City ballot measure to renew the current Parks Maintenance Tax that was first approved by voters in 1998 and renewed by the voters in 2002. Of those voting in 2002, 79% voted to approve the Parks Maintenance Tax. If approved by two-thirds of the voters, Measure G would renew the current Parks Maintenance Tax at the same rate of $49 annually for residential parcels and $40 per 1,000 sq. ft. for non-residential parcels, not to exceed a maximum of 10,000 sq. ft. If approved, the tax would be subject to renewal in six years (2012).
Measure G will be on the June 6 ballot. It requires a two-thirds (66.67%) vote to pass. It includes the same refund for low-income residents as the current Parks Maintenance Tax.
