SUBJECT: Filing Legal Action to Block
Proposition 36 Mailings
Supervisor Sunne W. McPeak again brought to the attention
of the Board her concern with respect to the Proposition 36 mailings
which resemble official tax bills , and informed the Board that it
has come to her attention that legal action to stop such mailings
has been taken by consumer groups in other counties . She expressed
the opinion that a public agency responsible for accurate representa-
tion to the taxpayers should join in such legal action .
As recommended by Supervisor McPeak , IT IS BY THE BOARD
ORDERED that County Counsel and the County Administrator are AUTHORIZED
to file either separate legal action in Contra Costa County, or a
"friend of the Court" brief in existing suits to block the aforesaid
Proposition 36 mailings .
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that staff is REQUESTED to report back
to the Board on October 23, 1983 on the status of said action .
