Yes on 2019 AUSD Parcel Tax

Measure A (March 2020) placed a parcel tax on the ballot to increase teacher pay. Revenue from the parcel tax is being used to bring AUSD employee salaries, which have long lagged behind those of neighboring districts in Alameda County, in line with the county average. Measure A passed with 67.10% voting yes, needing a 66.67% super-majority to pass a new tax.

Yes on Measure Z

Article 26 of the Alameda City Charter, initially added by Measure A (March 1973) and later amended in 1991, is an exclusionary housing policy that only allows the building of only the the most expensive types of housing and forces unreasonable density limits that drive up the cost of housing on the island. Article 26 has limited Alameda's newer housing stock to only the highest income earners for the past 47 years. This "color blind" measure consequently has kept many BIPOC people out of Alameda who would have likely moved here otherwise that were previously restrictred from living in much of Alameda because of past red lining and deed restrictions before the Fair Housing Act in 1968 passed making such discriminatory policies illegal.

A measure to repeal article 26 from the Alameda City Charter is scheduled for the November 2020 ballot. The motion to place the measure on the ballot in November was signed by current city council candidates Jim Oddie and Malia Vella.
