Re: Staff Report on the Sexual Offender Ordinance
The City of Santa Ana has approximately 380 sex registrants living within the city limits. Each sex
registrant is required to register with the Santa Ana Police Department one time a year within five days of their
birthday. Should the registrant be arrested between registration periods, they must reregister with the police
department after their release from custody. Anytime the registrant moves, the registrant must notify the local
police agency of the new address. This notification provides the community with information necessary to
protect itself. The information is especially critical with the recent addition of the Megan's law database on the
Internet. However, a significant gap in the protection of the community remains.
Bureau of Justice Statistics Director Dr. Jan M. Chaiken reported that there were
offenders in state prisons within the United States. Approximately 60,000 (63%) of sex offenders likely
committed their sex crimes against children under the age of 18. A significant percentage of the sex crimes
involved a victim under 13 years old. Dr. Chaiken's results are similar to the results observed by the Santa Ana
Police Department. Of the 380 sex registrants currently supervised by the SAPD Sex Registration Unit, 264
(70%) subjects were incarcerated for victimizing children under the age of 18 years old.
Sex offenders have been demonstrated to have a higher recidivism rate than any other criminal. A study of
9,691 men released from prison after serving time for a sex crime were compared to 262,420 men released for
non sex related crimes. All of the subjects were released in 1994 from 15 different states including California.
• Released sex offenders were 4 times more likely to be rearrested for sex crimes within 3 years (5.3% vs.
1.3%)
• The more prior arrests the subject had, the greater the chance he would be rearrested for a sex crime
• 4,295 of the 9,691 released sex offenders were in prison for child molestation. 60% of the subjects had
victimized a child under 14
• Released child molesters were most likely to be rearrested for another child molest during the 3 year
period after release (3.3% compared to .5% for the comparison group)
o Subjects with more than 1 previous child molest arrest were most likely to be rearrested for
child molesting (7.3%)

Lawrence Greenfeld, Deputy Director of the Bureau of Justice Statistics, analyzed a survey of 14,000
state prisoners. His analysis provided some important, yet previously unreported data.
• Two-thirds of all offenders serving time in State prison for rape or sexual assault had a victim under age
18.
• A majority of the subjects serving time for sex crimes against children had victimized a child age 12 or
under.
• 3 in ] 0 child victimizers reported that they had committed their crimes against multiple victims
• The offender had been drinking alcohol prior to the child molest in neazly 40% of the incidents.
A review of several studies conducted during the 1990's provides an in-depth understanding of who the
victims of sexual assault are and which sex offenders are more likely to reoffend. The studies included a review
of law enforcement reports, data analysis, interviews with state prisoners and a longitudinal study of released
state prisoners. Sex registrants aze more likely than other felons to commit a sexual assault and their victims of
choice aze usually children. Children also do not have the capacity to protect themselves and aze more easily
persuaded to comply with the directions of an adult, even a stranger. Given their vulnerability and their
attractiveness to sexual predators, the community demands that children be afforded safe locations to gather.
Under current law, sex registrants can sit in a pazk or neaz a school observing children while waiting for
the best opportunity to engage a child for a lewd act. Law enforcement officers are powerless to prevent this
activity until it is too late. Yet, preventable activity does happen in and azound schools and pazks. Recently,
officers from a sex offender task force followed a Santa Ana sex registrant to Los Angeles where the subject
was photographed making contact with young boys. He was also photographed pazticipating in a young boy's
soccer practice. When the undercover officers interviewed the parents of the boys the sex registrant had
contacted, they said the registrant was at the park all the time and described him as "the nicest man". We
subsequently arrested the subject for molesting two young boys in the City of Santa Ana (Voight).
On another occasion, we received information that a Santa Ana sex registrant was in the process of
bringing a foreign bride with a young son into the United States. The sex registrant had previously been
convicted of molesting a young boy, so the SAPD Sex Registration unit suspected something inappropriate was
occumng. During the investigation, we contacted the aparhnent complex where the subject lived. The
apartment manager described the subject as a "nice man" because he was always in the playground playing
with the children (Shenkel). It was determined the subject had been providing the police deparhnent with false
residence locations. He was arrested for failing to comply with his registration requirement.
A third sex registrant (Cortez) was determined to be annoying young girls at a school bus stop. The
complaint involved the subject standing neaz the girl's bus stop and yelling lewd comments at the girls and
propositioning them. If the adult parents of children contacted by sex registrants are unable to recognize them
as dangerous to their child, what chance does a child have to make that judgment?
Additionally, the Sexual Assault Unit has conducted two long term investigations involving sex crimes
occurring neaz schools and parks. One subject exposed himself to numerous young girls on their way to school,
over a one yeaz period, before he was eventually captured. The other subject approached couples in the pazks in
Santa Ana and ordered them to participate in sex acts with him at gunpoint before he robbed them and fled the
location.
Other cities have had similar problems with sexual assaults occurring near schools and parks. On Labor
Day, 1993 in Plano, Texas, the Estelle Family was at a local pazk watching their son play in a soccer
tournament. Seven year old Ashley Estelle became bored and walked to a playgound a few hundred yards
away. Despite the fact many other children were present; Ashley was abducted from the pazk by a convicted
sex offender. The sex offender, Michael Blair, had been released from prison after serving 17 months of a 10
year sentence. The City of Santa Ana's objective in enacting a law prohibiting sex registrants from loitering at
locations where children congregate is to prevent similaz attacks from occurring.

Norm Maleng gives an excellent rational for why local governments have the responsibility for enacting
laws to protect its citizens. Norm Maleng served as King County, Washington's Prosecuting Attorney and has
been recognized as a leader in reforming Washington's criminal justice system. He points out that the local
community has different public safety priorities than the criminal justice system. He writes, "While the public
and the State legislatures treat sex offenders as a high priority, the criminal justice system frequently sets
different priorities." Maleng recognizes the function the local government has in protecting its citizens.
Recognizing the danger convicted child molesters present, the State of California passed a law prohibiting a
child molester on parole from living within '/4 mile of a school (PC 3003).
Restricting sex registrants from loitering around locations where children congregate is a logical, fact based
effort to prevent future victimization of children. The data confirms that sex offenders are the most likely group
to reoffered and when they do reoffered, the evidence shows their victims are likely to be children. The more a
subject has been arrested for prior crimes including sex offences, the more likely they are to reoffered. After a
sex registrant completes probation or parole, the only supervision they receive is their annual address update at
Che police deparhnent unless they move during the year. Tn that case, the registrant must report to the police
deparhnent within 5 days of the move. With approximately 380 sex offenders living in the City of Santa Ana,
there is no practical way to actively supervise this many individuals.
By notifying sex registrants that they are in violation of the law by loitering around locations where children
congregate, they are made aware that any actions they take to get near child can no longer be done with
anonymity. Additionally, we give the patrol officer a valuable tool to participate in the supervision of the sex
registrant while protecting the community from sexual predators. Sex registrants on parole and probation are
beginning to be required to wear GPS (global positioning satellite) tracking devices. Detectives will be able to
review where sex registrants have been and if they have spent any unexplained time loitering near parks and
schools.

ORDINANCE NO. NS-2712
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA ADDING ARTICLE XII
SECTIONS 10-700 THROUGH 10-703 TO CHAPTER
10 OF THE SANTA ANA MUNICIPAL CODE TO
REGULATE PROXIMITY OF REGISTERED SEX
OFFENDERS TO CHILDREN'S FACILITIES
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA DOES ORDAIN AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds,
determines and declares as follows:
A. The City Council of Santa Ana (the "City Council") places a high
priority on maintaining public safety.
B. Registered sex offenders pose a clear threat to children residing in
or visiting the City.
C. The United States Supreme Court in New York v. Ferber (1982)
458 U.S. 747, found that there is a compelling governmental interest in
safeguarding the physical and psychological well-being of children.
D. The City of Santa Ana has a variety of parks, some large and some
small, some in neighborhoods and some not, some developed and some
undeveloped that are frequented by children. Within the parks are numerous
traditional playground areas, softball fields, youth soccer, swimming pools, and a
zoo. The City's park system also hosts a range of activities, including birthday
parties and family reunions.
E. According to a report by the U.S. Department of Justice, in 1994,
the median age of the victims of imprisoned sexual assaulters was less than 13
years old. Of released sex offenders who allegedly committed another sex
crime, 40% perpetrated the new offense within a year or less from their prison
discharge.
F. The City of Santa Ana currently houses approximately 385
registered sex offenders and over two-thirds of those registrants have victimized
persons under the age of 18 years of age.
G. The City Council desires to impose safety precautions in
furtherance of the compelling goal of protecting our children from sexual assault
or other harm by sex offenders.
11 A-6
H. The City Council desires to add local restrictions in areas where
state law regulating sex offenders is silent by prohibiting sex offenders from
loitering in areas that are primarily designed for use by, or are primarily used by,
children.
I. The City Council further finds that sex offenders pose a high risk of
re-offending, and protecting the public from sex offenders is the primary
governmental interest of this ordinance.
J. In adopting this ordinance, the City Council does not seek to create
anything other than a regulatory scheme designed to protect the public from
harm. It is the City Council's goal to be remedial rather than punitive, to exclude
sex offenders from small portions of the City and not to punish them.
K. In establishing this regulatory scheme, those sex offenders subject
to it shall be provided with clear and unambiguous notice of this ordinance's
requirements and the penalties for noncompliance. The City Council finds that
timely and direct notice serves to apprise individuals of their responsibilities and
to ensure compliance with the regulatory scheme.
L. Nothing in this regulatory scheme is meant to restrict a sex
offender's place of residence as long as a sex offender is not engaged in any of
the prohibited activities in a restricted area.
M. The City Council finds that the restrictions imposed by this
ordinance are narrowly tailored to achieve a compelling governmental interest.
N. The Request for Council Action for this ordinance dated May 1,
2006, and the Chief of Police written recommendation dated April 27, 2006, shall
by this reference be incorporated herein, and together with this ordinance, any
amendments or supplements and the oral testimony before the City Council,
shall constitute the findings for this ordinance.
Section 2. Article XII is hereby added to Chapter 10 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code to read in full as follows:
Article XII. Proximity Restrictions for Registered Sex Offenders to
Children's Facilities
Section 10-700. Purpose.
Sex offenders pose a clear threat to the children residing in, or visiting our
community. Because convicted sex offenders are more likely than any other type
offender to re-offend for another sexual assault, the City Council of the City of
Santa Ana desires to impose safety precautions in furtherance of the goal of
protecting our children. The purpose of this regulation is to reduce the potential
11 A-7
risk of harm to children of our community by impacting the ability for sex
offenders to be in contact with unsuspecting children in locations that are
primarily designed for use by, or are primarily used by children, namely, the
grounds of a school, a center or facility that provides day care or children's
services, and a park. The City of Santa Ana desires to add location restrictions
to such offenders where the state law is silent.

provided a copy of this ordinance at the time of registration.
Section 3. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or portion of
this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision
of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the
remaining portions of this ordinance. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana
hereby declares that it would have adopted this ordinance and each section,
subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or portion thereof irrespective of the fact that
any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions be

4. SANTA ANA STADIUM SYNTHETIC TURF STRIPING
At the last meeting, the Council Committee requested staff to review the possibility
of installing temporary striping on the stadium synthetic turf, review the width of the
lines for football and soccer and review the sharpness of the line delineation.
Staff contacted our consultant and various synthetic turf manufactures to find that
temporary striping (chalking or panting) is rarely done, very labor intensive and can
cause future problems to the turf and drainage system.
Staff shared the regulation requirements for sports fields and indicated the official
line width for football and soccer is 4 inches wide. The sharpness of the line is
dependent on the density of the turf blades. The density may vary depending on
the manufacturer. The manufacturers are pre-qualified and all provide equal or
higher density on their product.

Currently, there are two mandated public sector vacancies on the Board.
One is the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), Title I representative for the
agency that serves adults and dislocated workers; and the second is for a
public agency receiving funding to serve Title V, older workers. Judy
Chen-Lee, Coordinator of the Santa Ana W/0/R/K Center, is nominated to

Renew the contract with S&S Rent-A-Fence for chain link fence rentals for a
one-year period in an annual amount not to exceed $40,000.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency uses temporary fencing to ensure public safety and
reduce liability around City-owned properties scheduled for construction or
demolition. Fencing is installed within 24 hours, when necessary, to
provide immediate public safety. Fencing is typically rented for either a
six-month or a one-year period.
On June 7, 2004, the City Council awarded a contract to S&S Rent-A-Fence
for a two-year period with provision for three one-year renewals. The
vendor has performed satisfactorily during the past contract period and has
agreed to renew the contract without an increase in pricing. Staff
recommends the first renewal of the contract.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds for the first month of the contract are available in the fiscal year
2005-2006 Public Works Environmental Sanitation Other Contractual Services
account (account no. 68-632-6291). Funds for the duration of the contract
term will be included in the proposed 2006-2007 budget.

Vendor: Location:
Orange County Pump Co. Santa Ana
So Cal Pump & Well Drilling, Inc. Riverside

DISCUSSION
The City currently operates 19 active water wells and seven water pumping
stations to supply the City's drinking water. Staff has determined that
through rehabilitation the efficiency of a majority of the water wells can
be increased. The rehabilitation work is needed to restore the wells to
maximum water production capacity. Completion of the work will result in
the wells producing more water while utilizing less electricity. To avoid
schedule conflicts and ensure rapid response, an option of four vendors is
recommended.

DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency's Water Resources Division performs an ongoing

that the application of a white insecticidal latex coating in the sanitary
sewer manholes will reduce health risks and will also result in cleaner,
brighter and safer manholes. The insecticidal latex coating is Environment
Protection Agency approved and is guaranteed for two years, and will be
applied at a cost of $16.50 per manhole.

DISCUSSION
The Bomo Koral Park picnic area asphalt surfacing has deteriorated due to
heavy use and tree root growth. At a recent association meeting, recreation
staff conducted an informal survey about replacing the surface lot. The
neighborhood association agreed that the asphalt surfacing be replaced with
decomposed granite. The decomposed granite will provide greater durability
than asphalt and allow for the tree roots to grow without breaking or
cracking the surface.

Award a contract to Digital Electronic Services, Inc. to upgrade the motor
control center at the Garthe Pumping Station in the amount of $133,819.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency's Water Resources Division uses a variable
frequency drive to regulate the quantity of water pumped from most of the
City's wells and pump stations. Currently, the Garthe pump station does
not use a variable frequency drive. Installation of two variable frequency
drives at the Garthe pump station will allow the pumps to start smoothly,
use less energy and will reduce pressure surging into the water lines. In
addition, once the variable frequency drives are installed, the City will
qualify for an energy saving rebate of approximately $32,000.

Amend the contract with Penn Van & Storage Co. to increase the aggregate
limit by $10,000 for moving services for a total not to exceed $20,000.
The City establishes an annual blanket order list consisting of vendors
that provide supplies and services that are required by agencies on a
consistent basis. Moving services are required at times by all City
departments for the purposes of packing and transporting items during short
and long term relocations. The contract for moving services provides fixed
pricing for all City departments.
The building occupied by the Fire Department Training Section has been sold
and must be vacated by May 19. The Training Section will move to the
existing classrooms at the Fire Department's Centennial Park training site.
To accommodate the move, Penn Van & Storage was contacted to provide
packing and moving services. Penn Van & Storage, a Santa Ana Vendor,
offers reliable service, competitive pricing, and has consistently been the
lowest responsive bidder on low cost items. In order to perform the work
and continue providing moving services, staff recommends approval of the
increase.

Renew the contract with DMS Janitorial for janitorial service at various
locations for a one-year period in the amount not to exceed $282,365.
DISCUSSION
Janitorial services for several City buildings, recreational facilities and
park restrooms are provided through contractual custodial firms. Services
performed under the contract include vacuuming, dusting, mopping, trash
disposal, cleaning and restocking of restrooms, machine-buffing the
floors, and carpet shampooing.
On May 3, 2004, the City Council awarded a contract to DMS Janitorial for a
two-year period with provision for three one-year renewals. The vendor has
performed satisfactorily during the past contract period. However, in the
usual course of monitoring the work performed by the vendor, staff
determined that an enhanced cleaning method was necessary for the park
restrooms. In order to meet this requirement, DMS determined that the most
effective method for cleaning the park restrooms was power washing. Power
washing would provide a more clean and sanitary restroom facility for park
patrons. Given the increased time and effort, DMS has estimated that it
would cost an additional $6,000 per month to achieve the new requirement.
As such, staff did conduct an informal review of the market and determined
that the price increase is acceptable and comparable. In addition, staff
conducted a cost benefit analysis of utilizing City employees to provide
the janitorial services. Even with the increase, DMS Janitorial continues
to be competitively priced. However, staff will rebid the service in the
coming year. In order to allow time for the bid process and to provide
uninterrupted service, staff recommends the first renewal of the contract.
A ten percent contingency has been included in the award amount for any
additional unanticipated service needs.

On January 5, 2004, the City Council awarded an Agreement to La Cha
Maintenance for litter control and maintenance in Downtown Santa Ana for
a 12-month period with two 12-month renewal options. The Downtown area
includes approximately 600 retail, service and professional businesses
(Exhibit 1). The comprehensive scope of services includes: graffiti
removal; painting; cleaning parking meters, light poles, bollards and
outdoor furniture; sidewalk-blowing to assist street sweeping; and
maintaining high standards of cleanliness for alleys and bus stops. As
part of this program, the contract includes the Downtown ~~Ambassador"
component, which ensures the training of all maintenance workers on
customer service skills to enable them to provide assistance to patrons
visiting the Downtown area. The maintenance ambassadors wear highly
recognizable uniforms as they perform litter and maintenance services to
increase their approachability and visibility in the Downtown.
La Cha Maintenance has been diligent in addressing its work plan in
detail and its presence in the Downtown has ensured an acceptable level
of cleanliness. Staff recommends that the City exercise the second
renewal option to continue these efforts.

COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AND HOUSING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution amending the
guidelines for the operation of the Grants for Blocks Program by the
Community Development Agency.
By a vote of 7:0 at its Regular Meeting of May 2, 2006.
The Community Development Agency has operated the Grants for Blocks
Program since 1999. Since that time, over $60,000 has been raised to
provide eighty grants to neighborhood associations and community-based
organizations serving Santa Ana. In 2002, the City Council established
Grants for Blocks as an Agency Directed Fund with the Orange County
Community Foundation. This has further raised the visibility of our
community-building initiatives among corporations and charitable
foundations.
In an effort to enhance the program, staff is recommending revising the
program to allow the City to accept financial gifts, deposit them into
the City's account with the Orange County Community Foundation and
request the disbursal of funding for approved activities and recipients.

Recently, a resident approached staff for the purpose of making a
financial gift that would be disbursed to recipients of the annual "Most
Beautiful Yard Competition." This program is also administered by the
Community Development Agency and provides for each of Santa Ana's
neighborhood associations to nominate homes for recognition. By amending
this program, it will allow greater flexibility to accept financial gifts
from the private sector to support community building and leadership
training programs associated with our Neighborhood Improvement Program.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution approving the Renewed Measure M Transportation
Investment Plan for the purpose of placing Measure M before the voters of
Orange County in November 2006.
DISCUSSION
On November 6, 1990, Orange County voters approved Measure M, a half-cent
local transportation sales tax to be collected for 20 years. The revenue
generated from Measure M has been used to fund critical freeway, road and
transit projects in Orange County. All of the major projects promised to
and approved by the voters are underway or complete. Funds that go to
cities and the County of Orange to maintain and improve local streets and
roads will continue until Measure M expires in 2011.
In order to address our current and future transportation needs, renewal
of the half-cent sales tax is imperative. Orange County continues to
grow. By the year 2030, Orange County's population will increase by 24
percent; jobs will increase by 27 percent; and travel on our roads and
highways by 39 percent. Without continued investment average morning
rush hour speeds on Orange County freeways will fall by 31 percent and on
major streets by 32 percent.
Since June 2005, a group of Orange County elected and public officials
collectively known as the "Super Committee," has met regularly to
identify future transportation projects and programs to be included in a
renewed Measure M and to attain support for the renewal effort from
Orange County cities. Additionally, if approved by two-thirds of the
voters, Measure M would authorize the collection of a half-cent sales tax
for a 30-year period from 2011 to 2041, generating a projected total of
$11.8 billion for local transportation projects.
55C-1
Resolution Approving the Renewed Measure M
May 15, 2006
Page 2
Further, Mayor Pro Tem Lisa Bist represented the interest of the City on
the Super Committee and as chair of the Investment Plan Subcommittee,
provided valuable input into the plan to assure the City's transportation
needs were addressed. As a result of her leadership combined with the
efforts of her council colleagues, renewed Measure M will give the City
approximately $193.6 million in turnback funds over the next thirty years
to improve City streets and roads.
Measure M revenues raised from the continuation of Measure M would remain
in Orange County and could not be diverted by the state or federal
government. This additional funding would provide a stable, long-term
funding source to alleviate traffic congestion, assist in eliminating
deferred maintenance on our neighborhood streets, improve travel on major
arterial roadways and highways by synchronizing traffic signals and
widening, expand transit services and provide transportation-related
water quality improvements.
The next steps would be to receive public input. In May and June 2006,
Orange County cities will be asked to approve the plan for purposes of
placing it on the ballot. The OCTA Board of Directors is expected to
consider the plan in July and upon approval, the Orange County Board of
Supervisors could place the Measure on the November 2006 ballot.
In order to be placed on the November 2006 ballot, the Measure must
obtain approval of the County Board of Supervisors, City Councils
representing both a majority of the cities in the County and a majority
of the population residing in the incorporated areas of the County. The
Orange County Division, League of California Cities, has recommended the
adoption of the attached resolution in support of the Renewal of Measure
M. By adopting the resolution, each city is acknowledging the importance
of preserving Measure M funding for the next 30 years and approving the
Investment Plan for the revenues expected to be derived from the renewal
of Measure M. Adoption will allow the new measure to be put before the
voters in November 2006.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA APPROVING THE RENEWED MEASURE M
TRANSPORTATION INVESTMENT PLAN
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines
and declares as follows:
A. The citizens of Orange County approved passage of Measure M in
November 1990 authorizing the Orange County Transportation Authority
to administer aone-half of one percent (''/2 %) transportation sales tax to
support a specific transportation improvement plan, applicable in the
incorporated and unincorporated territory of the County of Orange.
B. Measure M has provided funding for numerous transportation projects,
including freeways, local roads, major streets, interchanges, the Metrolink
commuter train system, senior bus fare stabilization, signal
synchronization, and more.
C. Measure M is expected to generate more than $4.2 billion in transportation
improvements for Orange County over a twenty year period.
D. Measure M is set to expire in 2011 unless renewed by a vote of two-thirds
(z/3) of Orange County voters.
E. The League of California Cities, Orange County Division, created a Super
Committee of elected official and staff representatives from each city that
worked to develop a transportation Investment Plan detailing how every
dollar of a renewed Measure M plan would be spent and unanimously
recommended that the Investment Plan be placed before the voters of
Orange County.
F. The resulting transportation Investment Plan will relieve traffic congestion,
improve safety and the quality of life by improving traffic flow on the Santa
Ana (I-5), San Diego (I-405), Garden Grove (SR-22), Costa Mesa (SR-55),
Orange (SR-57), and the Riverside (SR-91) freeways; maintaining and
improving streets; expanding Metrolink rail with connections to local
communities; providing transit for seniors and disabled persons;
synchronizing traffic signals countywide; and, cleaning up road runoff to
protect beaches.
Resolution No. 2006-XXX
55C-3 Page 1 of 2
G. The efforts of Mayor Pro Tem Lisa Bist, who represented the City of Santa
Ana on the Super Committee and as chair of the Investment Plan
Subcommittee, provided input into the plan to assure the City's
transportation needs were reflected.
H. The leadership of Santa Ana's Super Committee representative combined
with the efforts of her council colleagues will give the city the flexibility to
allocate more than and estimated $193.6 million in Measure M "fair share"
funds over the next thirty years to improve city streets and roads.
If approved by two-thirds (2/3) of the voters, Measure M would authorize
the collection of a one-half of one percent (''/z %) sales tax fora 30-year
period from 2011 to 2041, generating an anticipated total of $11.8 billion
