Supporters say city, county improperly determined they failed to gather enough signatures; suit says voter rights at stake
Planned for November 2022 ballot, effort would be a citizen’s initiative needing only simple majority approvalParcel taxes are based on the size of the lot and don’t rise over time. That’s in contrast to a general obligation bond, where contributions by property owners are based on the assessed value of their property, which can increase over time.
The first argument it makes is that the threshold should have been 80,020 valid signatures, which is 10 percent of the registered voters in the 2022 general election — not 82,566, which is 10 percent of the number of registered voters in the 2020 general election. Other criticisms include signatures being invalidated because the dates of signature gathering didn’t match the dates written on petitions by voters. The suit says many voters accidentally wrote their birthday instead of the date they were signing.
