The accompanying photo may not be the only sign of its kind in Culver City this election season.
But you probably would not lose more than 15 cents if you made that bet because there aren’t enough anti-Measure EE signs to ignite a bonfire.
The opposition to Measure EE, the $96 a year parcel tax to benefit the School District, has been so sparse, actually invisible, that one of the parcel tax’s chief advocates took this photo and sent it to the newspaper.
School Board member Scott Zeidman was out with his son Jason yesterday when they espied this “Vote No on EE” sign on a lawn in the 4200 block of Revere.
The newspaper has heard of only one resident opposed to the parcel tax, which will channel about $1.2 million annually to the District for each of the next five years, if it passes.
A two-thirds approval of the voters is required on Nov. 3, one week from Tuesday.
The Revere homeowner’s complaint:
“It only raises taxes on property. The property owner has to raise rents. What happened to the Lotto (revenue) that was to be paid to schools? Tax the oil company that is drilling in Culver City.”
Public opposition to Measure EE is s scarce that at a form for School Board candidates earlier this month, former Mayor Alan Corlin, a parcel tax supporter, had to present both sides of the argument.
