FAQ's

The Safe Streets Renewal is NOT a tax increase. It simply continues the dedicated millage for police and fire protection and neighborhood street improvements for an additional ten years.

Check out the FAQ's to address any issues or questions you may have about the Safe Streets Renewal. Click the link below to read the answers.

Why is the Safe Streets Renewal needed?

Why can't the City fund Police and Fire Protection and Neighborhood Street Improvements from current sources of revenue?

If approved by the voters, how much will the Safe Streets Renewal cost the average homeowner?

What is the impact if the Safe Streets Renewal fails?

Wait, isn't the State going to increase the gas tax and fix the roads?

If the Safe Streets Renewal is approved, will other city departments benefit?
