February 5, 2004 Page 2 Directors congratulated and thanked recipients for their contributions and efforts on the District's behalf. The meeting was recessed at 7:55 p.m., and reconvened at 8:05 p.m. League of California Cities Channel Counties Regional Representative Dave Mullinax Dave Mullinax presented an overview of the Local Taxpayers and Public Safety Protection Act to be on the November 2004 ballot. He noted that since 1991 more than $30 billion of local property taxes have been drained from cities, counties and special districts; the state has used these funds to mance its constitutional funding obligation to public education; the League of California Cities has joined forces with the California State Association of Counties (CSAC) and the California Special Districts Association (CSDA) to sponsor the ballot initiative to put voters in charge of whether local tax dollars should be used to fund state services; and approval of the act will require the consent of a simple majority of the electorate. Lange suggested that Mullinax contact VCSDA (Ventura County Special Districts Association), and Gibson expressed support of the initiative. 4. ITEMS FROM THE PUBLIC 5.
