Look, the voters of California set a limit on property taxes in 1978, at one percent of assessed valuation – for good reason. Mira Costa gets its fair share from this revenue, but like all public institutions, wants more, more, more. Mira Costa has put bond issues before the voters on a regular basis, in a thus far successful workaround to the prop 13 limits approved by voters in ’78. If this continues, there will be “blowback”, that will ultimately undermine support for higher education in this state.
By the way, some of you may not be aware of the attempted giveaway of 1.7 million by Mira Costa in 2007, when they “generously” awarded said sum to Victoria Munoz Richart (former President ad Superintendant), as a settlement to get rid of her. It took a Calsbad private citizen’s suit to get that decision reversed.

We have to stop this nonsense. Vote no on Prop EE, 30, and 38.
