Measure T oversight committee reports near‑doubling of expected revenue since ballot estimate
Summary
The Measure T Oversight Committee reported increased revenue over initial estimates and warned of a projected $215,000 shortfall for FY24–25 while recommending monitoring and possible use of funds for emergency repairs.
John Marquez, a Measure T committee member, summarized the committee’s annual report for fiscal year 2023–24, noting that Measure T (a one‑cent local sales tax approved by voters a little over four years ago) had been projected to generate about $2.1 million but revenues have trended closer to $4.0 million. He outlined the committee’s advisory responsibilities and said staff will monitor a projected $215,000 shortfall for FY 2024–25 and return with budget adjustments if needed.
Marquez said the committee recommends transparency and outreach so residents can see Measure T expenditures; council members asked that the city post updated collateral and an infographic on the city website and promote the information in the city newsletter.
