CL10 Page 79A ballot measure represents a promise to the voters. The County Government did not take the care it should have in crafting Measure G. County Government relied on a tax measure consultant to draft the ballot question and this language was accepted with minimal changes. The result was the inclusion of the accountability provisions “annual audits,” and “independent citizens oversight” that voters found misleading. Even County staff conceded in Grand Jury interviews that they could see how voters could have been confused by what those terms meant in the context of Measure G. The County staff is clear about what it believes these provisions of Measure G called for, but it did not consider what the wording might have meant to voters. If County Government continues to ignore how voters may interpret tax measures, voters may lose confidence and trust in the County. County staff proposed Measure G for the legitimate purpose of addressing the County’s structural deficit and an extensive list of ongoing critical needs and essential services. The need for these services will remain strong. The Grand Jury understands and values the important leadership role the County should play in addressing critical issues such as homelessness, fire prevention, and drought resilience. This report is written in support of the County and with the intention of highlighting the critical need for County services, and the intelligence of County voters in being able to recognize the need and act accordingly. That said, the County Government should write future ballot questions and the accompanying voter information carefully so that residents know exactly what they are voting for.
