Description

Oaklands Measure E: A New Parcel Tax on the Ballot - Voters are considering a new tax, Measure E, that would add $192 for homeowners and $131 for multi-family unit owners to their property tax bills. The city expects $34 million annually for public safety, fire equipment, and waste management. Mayor Barbara Lee supports it, but former Council member Loren Taylor opposes it due to past tax increases and lack of spending guarantees. The citys track record and residents budgets are key factors in this contentious debate.
