The League of Women Voters of North County San Diego opposes Measure S. The League holds long-standing positions on government accountability and transparency, which establish the need for clear, accurate, and consistent information from government bodies so citizens can make informed judgments.
Citizens have a right to know that the funds raised by Measure S go into the General Fund, with no legal mechanism to ensure they are spent on specific projects. The City's explanation of what the funds are needed for and how they will be used has shifted across its communications with voters, leaving many unable to make an informed judgment.
