Riverside County Measure A: Traffic Relief, Pothole/Road Repair Investment Renewal
What does this measure do?
Supports: Public Infrastructure
Keeps Riverside County's existing half-cent sales tax for roads, freeways, and buses going past 2039 until voters end it, raising about $280 million a year. The tax rate does not go up: shoppers keep paying the same half cent per dollar, with audits and public spending reports.
Proposed by: Riverside County Transportation Commission (Ordinance 26-001)
A board of county supervisors and city council members that runs the county's transportation sales tax. It asked voters to extend the half-cent sales tax. It needs two-thirds yes votes.

A YES vote means
The current half-cent transportation sales tax continues past 2039 until voters end it, paying for pothole and road repair, freeway projects, and bus service. Your sales tax rate stays the same.
A NO vote means
The half-cent transportation sales tax stays in place only until it expires in 2039, then stops unless voters approve a new one.
