Measure O - Add another tax to property owners (and renters) The push for adding a tax is the easy solution, but why no one is researching why the money is lacking for our district. The tax revenue is there. As a real estate agent, seeing home sale prices increase, those higher taxes collect are not coming to our district. I want to find out why we are not receiving those funds locally. I want to meet with our representatives higher up (Assembly and/or Senate, or whomever it may be) to get such funding instead of increasing taxes on our local citizens. If elected, I want to work with the board and find answers to have better pay for teachers, and funding for projects at our schools to fix and maintain. I won't stop there, I would run for higher office just to ensure not only our district is getting the funds we pay our taxes for, but this should be for any district in California. Why are we paying higher taxes, and getting less today is one of my reasons for running for school board.
