Community Priorities Survey
City Manager Duggan provided background of the outreach efforts in 2018 and a community pnonty
survey conducted in March and in May of this year,with a goal of demonstrating the feasibility of a
potential sales tax measure for the City The survey had several research objectives, including, gauging
current levels of satisfaction with City services, assessing potential voter interest in ensuring local funding
for infrastructure and protection of essential City services like public safety, and to inform a priority
ranking of projects and programs to potentially be funded with the proceeds As public comment,Dennis
Bell wondered what criteria was used to choose those to be surveyed,what methodology was used and what
questions were asked
Joy Kummer, of TBWBH Strategies, and Timothy McLarney, of True North Research presented detailed
CC_June 16,2020
Page 6
survey results which show there is currently strong support in favor of a sales tax measure among likely
November 2020 voters in the City They pointed out the results are a snapshot in time and do not predict the
November election outcome but rather provide the tools for Council to make an informed determination
whether it is worth it to put this item before the voters in November Support was shown to be broad and
wide-ranging among different groups within These results, along with continued efforts on the part of staff
and City Council to communicate information on funding needs and the public's priorities, should
contribute to the overall feasibility of a successful ballot measure later this year Top service priorities
identified were addressing homelessness,public works and public safety In response to Council Member
Banch,Ms Kummer and Dr McLarney stated that in their experience, adding a"sunset clause" does not
necessarily make the tax more acceptable to voters and this language was not included in their survey
On motion of Council Member Eddie Tejeda, seconded by Council Member Paul Banch,the City Council
unanimously agreed,by roll call vote,to receive the presentation on the results of a Community Survey
conducted by TBWB Strategies and True North Research

NEW BUSINESS
Proposed Ordinance Initiative General Transactions and Use Tax
City Manager Duggan presented an overview of the need to consider adding an ordinance initiative to the
November 3,2020 ballot The measure requests qualified voters of the City of Redlands determine whether
to enact a One-Cent General Transactions and Use Tax Balanced budgets have long been prepared and
adopted resulting in the reduction of over 60%of general fund debt over the past ten years However,unmet
funding needs have persisted Compounding these fiscal pressures is the economic outlook resulting as a
consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic The pandemic has had a significant and immediate impact on the
City's revenue stream,with a loss in revenues projected at$5 6 million for the current fiscal year and$6 3
million in FY 2020-21,when compared to pre-COVID projections for FY 2019-20 In order for the City to
maintain the level of service to the public during the economic impacts of the pandemic and, in order to
work towards funding deferred capital needs, additional revenues will be necessary,in conjunction with
cost containment strategies Potential revenue-raising strategies include the ordinance initiative
As public comment,Noel Victor expressed support of the sales tax measure since it would provide
additional revenue to fund the Police and Smiley Library Paul Murphy,Patricia Moore, Shaughn Curran,
Greg Brttain,Joshua David Hall, Cynthia Blymiller and Dennis Bell all opposed the one cent tax measure
for reasons including,mistrust of the use of revenue with concerns the government is wasteful and the City
is already top heavy with too many management employees Rather than raise taxes,they suggested
funding goals be repnontized, initiating golden handshakes where appropriate,hiring a full time grant
writer,utilizing volunteers more effectively and pnvatizing the Animal Shelter
Council Members offered their perspectives of the initiative with each one voicing their support of the
measure They did request the language be reworked and revised before the next reading on July 7,2020
City Manager Duggan added that information detailing how much the average cost might be per person will
be provided at the next meeting, and he suggested the City work towards developing a comprehensive plan
to address homeless issues, since respondents clearly identified this as a top priority in the survey
On motion of Council Member Eddie Tejeda, seconded by Council Member Toni Momberger,the City
Council unanimously introduced,by roll call vote, Ordinance No 2913,with second reading proposed for
July 7, 2020, adding Chapter 3 18 to the Redlands Municipal Code, enacting a One-Cent General
Transactions and Use Tax for possible submission to the voters of the City of Redlands for the November
2020 General Election, and approved the first review of a Resolution placing the sales tax ordinance on the
