City Council Recap & Discussing the Loss of Local Control Initiative

Corey Costelloe and Key Budge recap the City of Tehachapi Council meeting from April 3, 2023 and take a deeper dive into an initiative backed by corporations that want to remove local control on your sales tax dollar and charge the taxpayer with their developing fees. There are approximately 40 corporations that have come together under the identity of "The California Business Roundtable Board" that have circulated petitions to place an initiative on the November 2024 ballot to remove local sales tax measures (Measure S in Tehachapi, Measure K in Kern County) passed by the citizens that fund essential services (fire, police, roads, etc) in our community and many more.
