Countywide Measures

Measure V: This measure would result in Orange County

becoming a charter county and changing the method of selection when a

vacancy occurs in the Board of Supervisors. The governing body of the

county is a Board of Supervisors made up of five members elected by and

from designated supervisorial districts for terms of four years. If a

vacancy occurs in the first three years of the term, measure V proposes

the vacancy shall be filled by a vote of the electors of that district at

a special election to be called by the Board of Supervisors not less than

56 days or more than 70 days after the vacancy occurs. If the vacancy

occurs within 180 days of a regularly scheduled election held throughout

the supervisorial district, the election to fill the vacancy may be

consolidated with that regularly scheduled election.

Measure W: Would eliminate the planned airport uses at the

closed El Toro Marine Corps Air Station by repealing Measure A, and

amending the Orange County General Plan to authorize an urban regional

park and a variety of agricultural, material recovery/recycling,

recreational, cultural, educational, employment, public and housing land

uses at El Toro.

Huntington Beach City School District Measure:

Measure DD: Asks voters to approve a general obligation

bond for $30 million to improve the quality of education, repair existing

schools, replace 35-year-old roofs and classroom heating and ventilation

systems, provide student access to modern technology, upgrade classroom

electrical and fire alarm systems, replace deteriorating water and sewer

systems. It will also qualify the district to receive, as available,

$16.7 million in state-matching funds.

City of Huntington Beach:

Measure EE:

Would amend the Charter of the City of Huntington Beach to add a new

section that would provide that only a property owner can establish the

price or terms regarding that property’s sale, lease, rental, exchange or

transfer. It would prohibit the City of Huntington Beach from legislating

or regulating the price or terms concerning the sale, lease, rental,

exchange or transfer of property.

Measure FF: Would create an infrastructure fund. The

Huntington Beach Charter would be amended to establish an “Infrastructure

Fund” with all infrastructure revenues raised, and accrued interest,

directed into the fund. The transfer or loan of money from the fund would

be prohibited. A minimum of 15% of the General Fund would go into this

infrastructure fund based on a five-year rolling average. City Council

would be required to designate an advisory board to annually review and

audit the fund.

Measure GG: Would place Power Plant Utility Taxes solely in

the infrastructure fund to be used only for the maintenance, construction

and repair of infrastructure such as storm drains, storm water pump

stations, alleys, streets, highways, curbs and gutters, sidewalks,

bridges, street trees, landscaped medians, parks, beach facilities,

playgrounds, traffic signals, street lights, block walls along arterial

highways and all public buildings and public ways.

Measure HH: Would repeal the gas tax exclusion for electric

power plants.
