6 <br /> <br /> <br />Impacts of Measure HH on local business competitiveness and the collection of Sales Tax revenues <br /> <br />Sales tax increases have occurred at a rate greater than the average rate for other <br />cities in Alameda County since the inception of Measure Z quarter cent sales tax. <br />Three other cities in Alameda County have a 10% rate: Albany, Hayward and Union <br />City. The impact of Measure HH cannot be determined until sales tax receipts are <br />measured in FY 2015-16 and FY 16-17. General sales tax increased 16% in 15-16, <br />indicating that Measure HH had little effect. Sales tax in other Alameda County cities <br />and statewide were substantially less than San Leandro sales tax in FY 15-16. <br />Measure HH public information and transparency efforts <br /> <br />Measure HH revenue has been highlighted in the City Council’s adopted budget. In the <br />adopted Biennial Budget Message, the following excerpt states: Measure HH is <br />approved for a 30 year period and promises to protect and maintain City services. The <br />November ballot language mentions 911 emergency response, neighborhood police <br />patrols, anti-gang enforcement, library programs for children, adults and families. The <br />successful measure also supports after school programs for youth including homework <br />assistance and reading programs, school police officers and crossing guards. The <br />measure will also help fill potholes and maintain residential streets ($1 million of new <br />General Fund money is allocated to the street overlay rehabilitation program and <br />$542,000 is allocated to Marina Boulevard Improvements in FY 2015-16.) <br /> <br />Participation in developing a revenue sustainability plan and strategy <br /> <br />On July 7, 2014, City Council approved ballot language on the November 4, 2014 ballot <br />that replaced the Measure Z ordinance, which was expiring in March 2018, and extend <br />a ½ cent rate for 30 years. <br /> The basis of this initiative is the provision of services and infrastructure which will <br />deteriorate unless additional funds are available to the City. A scientific survey <br />conducted by Godbe Research predicted the strong support for the new initiative as <br />long as it supports the following services provided by the City: <br /> <br />• Maintaining 9-1-1 emergency response times <br />• Maintaining neighborhood patrol officers <br />• Maintaining library programs for children, adults & families <br />• Enhancing anti-gang and law enforcement efforts <br />• Maintaining fire prevention services <br />• Maintaining school police officers & crossing guards
