C;;'��Iz January 14, 1992 To: Those interested in the Los Angeles County Park, Beach and Recreation Act of 1992 Re: Revised Funding Breakdown and Update Dear Friends: ti PLEASE NOPE. FUNDING CHANGES Recent polling data shows that Los Angeles County voters continue to strongly support this park measure as long as the annual cost to the average homeowner is about $1 per month. To make this is possible, it is necessary to reduce the total amount of the measure to $500 million, and we therefore need to make an across-the-board cut to all projects in the measure. Projects at $1.5 million dollars or less have not been cut. We are enclosing a revised funding breakdown which reflects the funding changes. Please review the revised breakdown immediately, as it will be considered by the Board of Supervisors on January 28th. Please call us immediately if you have questions or if your city has more than one project and you would like to divide the reduction between your projects. Per capita allocation: Legal counsel requires that the discretionary grants to cities and the unincorporated area of the county be divided on a per parcel basis rather than on a per capita basis, due to the fact that this measure is funded through an assessment. Each city will receive funds based on its' percentage of parcels of the total number of parcels in the county. We are enclosing a breakdown of the discretionary grants on a per parcel basis, which also reflects the reduction discussed above. The annual operations and maintenance allocation will also be split up in this way. TIMELINE The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors will take its first formal action on the proposed measure on Tuesday, January 28. Your support is critical for this hearing! At this hearing, we hope the Board will agree to proceed with the proposed measure by calling a public hearing in February as required by state law, and by.. approving the draft engineer's report. Please keep sending endorsements and letters of support to`us and to the Board of Supervisors. Your support is eritictl to encourage the Board of Supervisorsto, place the measure before voters in June. CITIES Your city's support is crucial to encourage the Board of Supervisors to place the proposed measure on the June ballot and to ensure that the per parcel funds and specific city projects are included in the proposed measure.
