Subject : Measure P Revisio n
In 1996 the citizens of the City of San Luis Obispo voted overwhelmingly t o
include Measure P in the City Charter . The intent of Measure P in the eye s
of the voter's was to secure additional water supplies to protect the citizen s
from a catastrophic event that might endanger the water sources that suppl y
the city .
Measure P expressly stated that these new water sources should not be use d
to allow additional development, there by using tax dollars to enric h
developers and political cronies .
On Tuesday, January 5, 2010 the outgoing city administrator and the cit y
council will attempt to once again side step the voters' wishes by revisin g
the Water and Wastewater Management Element in the General Plan to
reflect their vision for the city and disregard voters' intent in their passage o f
Measure P .
The only legal way changes to the intent of Measure P can be made is b y
placing a revision on the ballot . But don't count on this council to take th e
chance of allowing the voters a voice while they will surely get n o
opposition if they keep this matter under their control in city hall .
