On Thursday, March 5, the Pleasanton Unified School District Board of Trustees decided to place a parcel tax on the June 2 special election ballot.
The proposed amount of the parcel tax would be $233 and would expire after four years. An exemption will be available for seniors and those with other special needs.
If approved by a two-thirds majority of voters, revenue from the parcel tax would help compensate for an $8.7 million cut in school funding.

The City of Hayward is considering the adoption of an ordinance that would regulate vacant residential properties. This ordinance would be in response to a growing number of foreclosed, vacant properties that are creating urban blight due to lack of maintenance.
Bay East staff met with city officials this week and provided feedback on an ordinance adopted by a city in southern California that Hayward may use as a template. Bay East analysis of this sample ordinance revealed significant impacts on private property rights, privacy issues for rental property tenants, and costly notification, inspection and maintenance requirements.
Next Steps: City of Hayward staff are willing to organize a meeting of real estate professionals to better understand the realities of dealing with these types of properties prior to them adopting an ordinance. If you have direct experience with vacant properties in Hayward and want to share your experiences dealing with banks that own foreclosed properties by participating in a meeting with Hayward officials
