Shasta Voices Alert in Redding, CA

The State of California is considering "borrowing" or seizing local tax funds, redevelopment tax increment, and transportation tax funds from our Cities and Counties to balance their budget! There is nothing good about this for our local community. It would be the height of irresponsibility to take these funds when the voters have overwhelmingly passed measures to stop this destructive process, not once, but twice!
Shasta VOICES participated in a press conference yesterday together with officials from the City of Redding, City of Anderson, City of Shasta Lake, Shasta County, Chamber of Commerce, Shasta Builders Exchange, and Shasta Association of Realtors in opposition to balancing the state budget by seizing our local government funds. The entire community is working together regarding this timely and important issue!
We hope you would also be compelled to send letters in opposition to this proposal before it's too late. Feel free to use the attached letter as a guide in writing one of your own. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Thank you for your continued interest and support!
