2 Marin school districts seek parcel tax approvals on Nov. 5 ballot

Aug. 24—Voters in the Sausalito Marin City School District and the Bolinas-Stinson Union School District will be asked to approve a parcel tax on the Nov. 5 ballot.

Both Measure G and Measure C would require approval by two-thirds of voters in their respective districts for the measures to pass.

Measure G in the Sausalito Marin City School District would assess tax of 15 cents per square foot per residence or commercial building annually for eight years. For a 2,000-square-foot home, the tax would be $300 a year.

The tax would be capped at 23,000 square feet. Unimproved properties would be assessed a flat $25 tax annually. Measure G includes an exemption for seniors with lower incomes.

Our county just sent out proposed property taxes and of course they raised them heavily again!
