On May 21, 2019, the Board of Supervisors adopted Ordinance No. 2019-13. Under the ordinance, beginning in fiscal year 2020-2021, special taxes levied in the Zone for police protection would be increased to $380 per parcel for residential properties (single, small multiple and large multiple), $3,040 per parcel for commercial/industrial/institutional properties and $13,300 per parcel for commercial/theater parcels. The ordinance also would tax parcels owned by the Blackhawk Country Club, which are currently exempt from the Zone A police protection special tax. Also on May 21, 2019, the Board adopted Resolution No. 2019/147, which directed Ordinance No. 2019-13 to be presented to the CSA P-2 Zone A voters in a mail ballot election on August 27, 2019.
Elections Code section 9605 authorizes the Board of Supervisors to adopt a resolution withdrawing a measure from the ballot if the resolution is adopted and filed with the Elections Office no less than 83 days before the election. On May 30, 2019, the Board adopted Resolution No. 2019/191 which ordered Ordinance No. 2019-13 to be withdrawn from the August 27, 2019, ballot and canceled the election on the special tax measure in CSA P-2A. Resolution No. 2019/191 took effect immediately upon adoption by the Board. At the same time, Ordinance No. 2019-19, which repeals Ordinance No. 2019-13, was introduced and adoption was fixed for June 11, 2019. Today's action adopts Ordinance 2019-19 finalizing the repeal of Ordinance No. 2019-13.
