SD.1
Board of Supervisors
Contra Costa County
Date: May 17 2011 Public Comment
Greg Enholm, resident of Bay Point, requested the Board consider placing a measure on the ballot at the
countywide level to extend the expiring 2009 temporary sales tax increase (handout provided);
Wes Van Der Schaaf, LaRoache Political Action Committee, in support of co-author Representative Marcy
Kaptur's Resolution H.R. 1489, "The Return to Prudent Banking Act" to reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act of
1933.
Rollie Katz, Public Employees' Union, Local One, spoke of the possibility of false perception or
complacency due to the recent announcement that tax revenue received was higher than what was expected.
He reminded all that the May revise of the Governor's proposed budget still included program cuts and
proposals such as the closing of state parks.
