The Councilmen expressed the views that they would support it if it would replace a portion of the property tax, that they did not wish to pay the State a percentage of the tax to collect for the benefit of the City; that the citizens of Santa Ana cannot afford an increase in taxes; and that the State gives no assurance that its budget would be cut to enable it to return 10% to the cities. Mr. Billy C. Hall, Executive Director of the City Center Association, stated that their Board of Directors discussed the matter and are opposed to the 10% increase in the State Income Tax.
