Measure GG

Favored the cheaper Prop 218 route over an expensive ballot measure and asked whether the mailer could offer multiple dollar-amount options.

Strongly opposed — called it 'a death of a thousand taxes,' noted recent failed tax measures, and warned a $100,000 ballot spend could fail and leave the city at ground zero.

Not opposed to a modest increase but said the process must be fair — a Prop 218 protest-style vote forces people to show up to object, which she called inequitable.

Called the current $6.90 rate a bargain but asked how the shortfall splits between personnel costs and equipment, and about turnout differences between Prop 218 and a general-election ballot measure.

Asked whether this is a paramedic assessment like other cities' opt-in programs, and suggested the city look at neighboring cities' models and give residents a yes-or-no option.

Asked about population growth since 1980, repeat ambulance users, and the sample size behind the CARES survival data.

Asked whether ambulance service extends to non-residents visiting the city.

Asked for clarification on what the EMS billing revenue portion of the funding chart represents.
