There are 73,549 registered voters in the District

The Ventura Unified School District is currently assessing the feasibility of placing a parcel tax measure and/or a general obligation bond measure on an upcoming ballot.

A survey was conducted from Wednesday May 13th through Tuesday May 19th to assess support for the proposed measures.

The survey tested voter attitudes regarding the District, projects to be funded by the proposed measures, and tax tolerances.

400 households were contacted, which resulted in an overall margin of error of +/- 4.89%.

The school improvement bond measure would not increase the originally voter approved annual tax rate of $51.22 per $100,000 of assessed value from the District’s old bonds in 1997, but it would simply extend the amount of years that property owners would repay.

“To provide stable funding the Statecannot take away; protect academicprograms in reading, writing, math andscience; attract and retain qualifiedteachers and staff; maintain musicprograms; and expand studentcounseling services, shall Ventura UnifiedSchool District be authorized to continueto levy $59.00 per parcel annually for fouryears with an independent citizens‘oversight committee, have no funds foradministrators' salaries, provide a seniorcitizens' exemption and have all fundsstay local?”

Separately, the District is considering placing a parcel tax on a future ballot. Currently, there is an existing parcel tax already in place for Ventura Unified School District. The proposed new parcel tax would NOT INCREASE the tax rate but would EXTEND the existing parcel tax that is set to expire next year. If the election were held today, would you vote YES in favor of the measure or would you vote NO to oppose the measure?

Governor Newsom’s Phased Plan For Reopening

❏ Phase 1 - most people are ordered to stay at home except for essential outings.

❏ Phase 2 – Current Stage - Reopening nonessential retail stores, manufacturing, child care and schools

❏ Phase 3 - Months away in fall 2020 - fitness clubs, spas, nail salons, hair salons and barbershops that require much more personal contact will be able to reopen.

❏ Phase 4 - Mass crowd events like conventions, concerts and sporting events won't come until a later date, and it won't be soon, under the state plan. Don’t expect them until there is a vaccine or widespread immunity in approximately 12-18 months.
