Measures E,F, G & I

By Bret Heinemann

Candidate for Councilmember; City of Atascadero

This information is provided by the candidate
What we're voting on.
What the voters are being asked to approve or not to approve in measure E is to whether Atascadero should create an entirely separate office a mayor and if so how long the term of office should be.

current mayors in Atascadero serve for one year terms. The councilmembers rotate the mayor's position taking turns to chair the city meetings.

A "Yes" vote will do away with the rotational plan and replace it with a separate elected office. It will also do away with one of the five elected councilmembers positions.

A "No" vote will retain the current five elected councilmember positions with one of them serving as mayor.

Measure F

A "Yes" vote here sets the term of office for the mayor at two years.

A "No" vote rejects the idea.

Measure G

A "Yes" vote sets the term of office for the mayor at four years. A "No" vote rejects the idea.

Measure I-10

This is for everyone in the Atascadero Unified School District. It's purpose is to authorize the scchool district to issue bonds primarily for maintainance and repair of facilities. The bond cost to be repaid by a property tas assessment of up to 59 dollars per $100,000 of assessed value that will be added to their property tax bill. If not approved by the voters, then when the old bond expires in June of 2011, then the additional assessment will drop.

A "Yes" vote approves the bond issue and the proposed assessed.

A "No" rejects the bond issue.
