As Alameda residents get ready to vote on another Alameda Unified School Parcel Tax, Measure A, on the ballot on March 8th, the non-partisan California State Legislative Analyst’s Office is sparing with the California Redevelopment Association over the Office’s interpretation of the impact of Governor Jerry Brown’s proposal to eliminate redevelopment agencies across the state.
