RESOLUTION NO. 91-70
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA, OPPOSING MEASURE "J" ON THE
MAY 14, 1991, SPECIAL ELECTION BALLOT
WHEREAS, the May 14, 1991, special election ballot includes
an initiative entitled "Measure J" whereby the voters of Orange
County will decide whether or not sales tax should be increased
by a half-cent to pay for jails and other criminal justice
facilities; and
WHEREAS, revenue estimates as a result of a half-cent sales
tax increase are inconclusive and do not substantiate the actual
cost of building new justice facilities; and
WHEREAS, alternatives to raising taxes for a new jail, or
other criminal justice facilities, have not been adequately
explored; and
WHEREAS, another sales tax increase will put Orange County
at an economic disadvantage,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Tustin
opposes Measure "J" as a regressive, premature, and unnecessary
action in addressing public safety needs for the citizens of
Orange County.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Tustin City
Council held on the 6th day of May, 1991.
