Transit Revenue Explanation:
Outcome: Win for Transit
Results: Approved, 63%-37%
Renewal of a 0.6 mill levy to support Metro Transit operations from 2013 to 2015. It is expected to generate about $1,024,425 annually. The levy was first approved in 1986 and has been successfully renewed each time it has gone back on the ballot.
A countywide measure is expected next year.
This measure was complicated by an error in the ballot language stating that the levy is "new" when it is in fact a renewal.
