Why This Vote Matters

The council unanimously directed staff to prepare a second ballot measure to accompany the Kids First Initiative for the June 2018 election. This companion measure will include changes to how and when funding is distributed, along with a requirement that voters also approve a general tax measure. Staff will bring back the final version for the council to review and vote on at their February 27 meeting. This is a procedural step in the ballot measure development process, with no financial impact at this stage.
