Alameda Municipal Power will raise electricity rates 3.7% effective July 1, 2010, following approval of next-year’s budget by the City of Alameda Public Utilities Board. At a special Board of Trustees Meeting tomorrow night, the Alameda Unified School District will consider a resolution approving a $79 million school budget for the 2010/11 school year. The budget includes a $4.8 million deficit. Pacific Gas and Electric and the City of Alameda are co-hosting a “drop-in” meeting at the Mastick Senior Center this Wednesday, June 30th, for Alameda residents to learn or express concerns about “smart” gas meters. by Dennis Green With only half of Alameda’s registered voters concerned enough by the supposed plight of the schools to even vote at all, less than two thirds of those voted “Yes,” only 35 percent of registered voters, defeating the initiative. Measure E would have given this island city some of the highest school taxes in the Bay Area, if not the nation. It would have cost homeowners $659 a year, and commercial property owners as much as $9,500 per year per parcel. It would have raised $14 million a year for eight years on top of the $80 million a year going to the schools from regular property taxes. In a press release issued late yesterday, the Alameda Unified School District conceded defeat on Measure E, with only 35% of registered voters voting in favor of the measure. Less than two-thirds of the 21,966 votes cast were in favor of the measure, sending it to defeat. However, the District plans no school closures for the 2010/11 school year. The City of Alameda has released their schedule for summertime street resurfacing and repair. The work will start in July and run through mid-September.

As of 2:50 p.m. today, Measure E had 14,415 votes, or 65.62% of the votes cast, falling short of the required 2/3rds supermajority to win passage. This includes additional ballots from Alameda City Hall and the Registrar of Voters office not counted last night.
