SUBJECT: Measure A Presentation
Supervisor Hilda Wheeler of Butte County appeared before
the Board with a presentation on County Measure A, an advisory
measure which calls upon the State Legislature to solve county
financial problems by assuming the costs of State mandated programs.
She stated that the measure will be on the ballot in 20 California
counties this November, and that approximately 18 other counties have
expressed support for the measure. She urged the Board to join
those counties in expressing support for Measure A.
Supervisor Jan Hewitt of Solano County also appeared and
advised that Measure A will be on the ballot in Solano County. She
commented on the need for counties to be relieved of the burdens
placed on them by State mandated programs which are diverting local
funds from local services such as police, fire and library services.
Board members expressed their appreciation to Supervisors
Wheeler and Hewitt for their presentation, and noted that Measure A
is consistent with the Board' s previously adopted position on funding
of State mandated programs.
Therefore , IT IS BY THE BOARD ORDERED that the proponents
of Measure A. related to funding and reimbursement for State mandates,
are AUTHORIZED to include Contra Costa County as a support County.
