About The Measure

The city wants to renew a 4 percent tax on their electricity and natural gas bills to pay for street improvements to about five miles of city roads. The tax, which generates about $380,000 a year in revenue and would be extended until 2027, will expire at the end of this year unless reauthorized by voters.
