The City's Fiscal Challenge
The City of Campbell has struggled with budget issues for several years and made significant cuts – about $4 million in adjustments over the past five years, including functioning with approximately 10% fewer employees. Due to projected ongoing budget shortfalls of about $2 million, the City initiated an outreach effort early 2008 to hear from residents. A dozen presentations were made; more than 330 people filled out feedback surveys.
The City Council discussed options last Summer on how to move forward and voted unanimously to place a revenue measure on the ballot. Campbell voters approved Measure O by a 70% margin on November 4. The new tax rate will take effect April 1, 2009. The State's temporary sales tax increase will also be effective on that date.
