San Jose residents will have two measures on their ballots that they can say yes or no to; the first, regarding an amendment to the City Charter; and the second, regarding taxes on gambling halls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thus, Measure G will challenge residents if an amendment is created to expand oversight of the Independent Police Auditor, including review of officer-involved shootings and use of force incidents that cause death or bodily injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Likewise, voters will decide whether to review investigations initiated by the department against the officers as well as other technical amendments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition to whether to increase the Planning Commission to 11 members with the council appointing one member from each Council District and one member \"at large\"; as well as allowing the Council to set timeframes for redistricting when census results are late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the other hand, Measure H seeks to fund general City of San Jos\u00e9 services, including fire protection, disaster preparedness, 911 emergency response, street repair, youth programs, addressing homelessness and supporting vulnerable residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It will also be decided whether to adopt an ordinance to increase the gaming room tax from 15 to 16.5% by applying those rates to third parties: up to $25,000,000 at 5%; $25,000,001 to $30,000,000 at 7.5%; and over $30,000,000 at 10%, in addition to increasing the gaming tables to 30, generating approximately 15 million annually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
